Kickstarter Project Successful

DAYTON - When the pledge period ended for Reggie Mace and Beth Rahn's Kickstarter project on July 7, a total of $11,532 had been pledged by 163 backers. That put them barely over their pledge goal of $11,111. Thus the campaign was successful and they get to keep the money.

As we reported in our June 19 issue, Mace and Rahn are raising money to build a live recording studio for their Middle of Nowhere Sessions at Mace Mead Works, on Dayton's Main Street. Mace told us this week that he is about to go shopping for new stuff, including a sound board, a new computer, software and microphones, which will be purchased with Kickstarter funds. He and Rahn have also started putting together the Kickstarter pledge packages that will be sent to many of the backers.

Mace said that in September, the first live recordings using the new equipment will be held.
