      <![CDATA[My band is currently trying to figure the costs of funding our own tour and it seems like site like Kickstarter might be a good "start" if you will, but I guess I am being a skeptic wondering how and why would people willingly give us money to do this, even if they love our song? Im wondering those who have tried these sites, who do they reach out to?

      <![CDATA["But it's not that simple, some say. Such systems take advantage of old fans by having them invest in a project that's not yet complete, critics say, and create illusions of demand."<br>

Who says such silly things?
