I NEED YOUR FINANCIAL HELP! Most of you don't know, that I was born with an oral anomaly called ankyloglossia. This means I can not move my tongue much or stick it out. Since I practically just admitted that I suck at performing oral sex on girls, you know how desperate I am for your help. Many babies are born with this, but usually the muscle holding the tongue down is snipped immediately right after birth (I suppose because it's the least expensive time to have it done.) I never had this done and so that is why I have somewhat of a lisp when I talk. Words with L's often come out sounding like W's. So lolly pop would sound like wolly pop. It's embarrassed me my entire life. 50 Ways To Kill Me is currently in the process of recording a new record. I'm trying to make the lyrics as clear as possible but because of my condition, I feel some lines of lyrics are just a bit too unintelligible. I won't mention names but Record labels have dicked me around a bit too much for me to feel comfortable handing the material to someone else, this album is my baby. I feel I must release it myself and my budget for this release, what I have saved up, is 2500$. For 2500$ I can press it and it'll have a rather small booklet. Because of my lack of clearness in the vocals, it's important for me for the booklet to contain an additional 4 panels (2 more pages-front and back) to squeeze in all the lyrics. These additional pages are going to make the release cost over 3000$ (mostly because of the damn shipping to my location, paper weighs a lot). So, I need financial help from fans if you'd like to see a lyric booklet in the release. Now like I said, I've been dicked around by labels so I don't have any merchandise to put on sale, but I'm selling some stickers that I'd like you all to buy. I have 50WTKM stickers, Obnoxious Gas stickers, and political stickers that are for a good message, that you can FEEL GOOD about sticking everywhere. Also, I can't PROMISE because it's going to be hard enough to fit all lyrics to all 50 songs on 4 small CD booklet panels, but if you buy stickers I would LIKE TO have your name listed in the special thanks list in the CD!! I suppose the more you buy the more likely I'll put you in here. But even if you're NOT listed in the booklet, I will personally write you a letter of thanks with your sticker orders. Thank you so much for listening. I really love all you guys, whether you've been a fan of 50WTKM since 1999 when I started out or I added you on MySpace or some shit and just recently heard of it, I really love all you killme-heads and to give something back I'd like a release with all the goddamn lyrics included so you don't have to be in front a computer on the lyrics section of 50WaysToKillMe.com to know what the songs about! Also I'd like to add, that right here on JayDecay.com on the main page there is a donate button and if anyone donates 250 dollars or more I will send you one thousand stickers (may take up to 2 months to print) if you want me to.
