Here's the deal RecordingReview.com members. The hosting bill for RecordingReview.com just went up by 20x. What did cost me $100 per year now costs approximately $200 per month. Ouch! Granted, the new server is going to allow me to do some VERY powerful things which we'll get into soon, but for the time being I'm getting hit with a substantial bill.

I hate begging, but everyone likes to gamble.

So what if we did a raffle? Each ticket sells for $2 or 3 tickets for $5.

The only question is “What do you win?”. For that I have no answer. I prefer to be generous, but it wouldn't make sense to throw a fundraiser that loses money. (That sounds like a government thing). It would be cooler if I had even the slightest clue what this would bring in and then I could give away a Shure SM7 or something. One possibility is to give 50% of income back to the winner in the form of a MusiciansFriend gift certificate.

So what do you guys think? This sure beats begging but it still doesn't sit right with my robo capitalist views.

So I'm Joseph Stalin for a day. Give me! Ha ha
