Please let me tell you about a new charity project by the progressive rock community:

The Haiti Projekt brought together 40 bands or solo artists, among them such big names

as Neal Morse, Roine Stolt (with his new band Agents of Mercy), Andy Tillison (from

The Tangent), Dave Meros (from Spock's Beard) and IZZ. Many have contributed brand

new compositions or unique, previously unreleased versions of their songs. For just $20

you can download over four hours of prog music in CD quality or as high-quality mp3s!

All of the proceeds from this compilation will be donated to the Red Cross and its Haiti

aid efforts. We have already raised over $1500, but I'm sure that is just the beginning! :)

Honestly: I bought the whole package myself and have already bought half a dozen of

albums by bands that I didn't really know before who have contributed a song. It's a

really nice compilation and it's for a good cause, so you really can't go wrong with this! :)

Time for an update:

The Haiti Projekt reports the earnings through Aug 10...

Hello everyone. I wanted to let everyone know that I sent The Haiti Projekt money to the American Red Cross today. The totals are as follows and are current through this moment (Aug 10, 2010):

134 copies sold

$2,680.00 gross intake

$130.72 in PayPal fees

$2,549.28 net intake

I wrote the Red Cross a $2,600.00 check. Once I have a confirmation for the donation, I'll post a scan (for The Tsunami Projekt, they sent us a nice letter of thanks...).

Thanks to those who bought a copy. For those of you who have not, it is still available at http://www.thehaitiprojekt.com
