ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE: Pledge $1 or more
Every dollar that you contribute is another seed in the garden and will be greatly appreciated! I will yell out loud "Thank you (your name)!" and you will receive a wish of good karma delivered instantly to your door. Also, every e-mail you send to one of your friends who may be interested in my music can help me reach my goal, and your time is just as valuable, if not more, than your dollars.

I GOT FIVE ON IT: Pledge $5 or more

RICO, GET BACK TO MAKING MUSIC!: Pledge $8,000 or more
I know you're out there thinking "I'm just gonna fund this guy completely because I like his music and energy, and he seems to do it for the right reason.

You fund this project completely, and we'll need to talk about the gifts! I was thinking something like this: You'll get ALL of the rewards listed at the $1000 level and below, plus 3 writing workshops, 8 tickets to my album release party or any of my shows in the SF Bay Area or in your town if I'm there, 8 copies of the CD, poster and T-Shirt to give as gifts, 3 bags of coffee from Puerto Rico (instead of one) and I'll perform with a FULL band (9-10 pieces) for your event in the SF Bay Area! What else can we think of together? You like Puerto Rican food? I use to own a Puerto Rican restaurant and if you fund my project, I'll cook you and your family and friends a delicious dinner and sing you a few songs while I do it! Let's talk about it!
