Random Gifts of DreamSinger Music

For background on this please go to this post, Random Gifts of Music and scroll down the page.

In short, Random Gifts of Music is the process whereby you:

  • Receive X number of misprinted For the Sake of Love CD’s free (the recorded music is identical to the one’s we sell; the CD face label just has two songs listed in reversed order)
  • Write a short generic note, like “If you have found this, it is a gift for you to keep or pass on” (no preaching, no pushing of any agendas of any kind; just permission to take the CD and well wishes, if desired)
  • And then leave it in a public place for someone to find.
  • That’s it!

    If you’re not already familiar with the songs on the CD, go to www.keepingthedream.com, and click on the player. All the songs are there.

    To receive your Gifting CD’s, go to paypal.com and send $5.00 to keepingthedream AT gmail dot com for shipping and handling. Please write “Random Gifts of Music” in the comment box, so I’m certain this is what you are requesting, and be certain to leave a mailing address. This will cover the cost of the protective sleeves, mailing envelope and postage. It does not cover the cost of the CD’s at all. That’s our gift to you.

    Of course, if you want to donate anything above and beyond that to support DreamSinger in its mission of creating music of peace and healing, I will be more than happy to receive it. :) But it’s not necessary to get your Gifting CD’s.

    For starters, I’ll send you four CD’s to gift.

    After you’ve gifted a CD, please consider going to our DreamSinger Facebook Page, http://www.facebook.com/dreamsingerpage, and share where you left it, what feelings you had, and just generally what kind of experience it was for you. This is meant to be fun! Kind of like playing a musical Santa Claus around the year, and I’d love to hear!

    If you really enjoy this and become an avid gifter, we can talk about sending more in a single shipment.

    I only ask that these gifted CD’s be used specifically for this purpose -gifting to people you don’t know. That means if you pass a stranger on the street, and you feel like handing them a CD, then fine. You don’t have to leave it to be discovered.

    But please, if you want to give a friend or family, someone you know a DreamSinger CD, then I ask that you purchase one in the regular way at full price, either directly from me or through CD Baby, www.cdbaby.com/dreamsinger. I’m not charging a lot, and if you use the Gifting CD’s as an opportunity to buy gifts for friends and family and save you money, then you’re not taking advantage of an opportunity, you’re taking advantage of me.

    I’ve lived a lot of years and overcame a lot of challenges to be able to write these songs, and Stacey has devoted a great deal of his energy, time and talents to help create this CD. So please honor the trust we are placing in you.

    To purchase a corrected For the Sake of Love DreamSinger CD, complete with 12 page booklet and autographed by me, please send $10 plus 2.50 shipping and handling (add $1.00 for each additional CD) to the same email address at paypal: keepingthedream AT gmail dot com. Write “Purchase” AND a name you’d like it autographed to. If you order through CD Baby, it won’t be autographed.

    This printing mistake (it was ours) has cost Stacey and I an extra $1,000 to duplicate the corrected CD’s, but we feel very good about gifting the CD’s we feel were meant to be gifted, and can’t think of a better way to turn what could have just been a costly mistake into an act of blessing others in this delightfully co-conspiratorial kind of way.

    I’ve already left a couple Random Gifts of Music a while back, and am starting again.

    Hope you join us. :)
