Happy so far?
🕑 Added 2018-01-28 05:17:25 +0000 UTC Hey guys, we're closing in on the first month of our Patreon experience, and would love your feedback!Are you happy with the content we've been putting out? Any requests or ideas on how we can make things more fun and good?
I'm keen to post on Facebook, Twitter and Instragram to get more people onboard to join the party, so do you think it would be alright if I could screen capture some of your comments and make a collage of (hopefully!) you satisfied customers? That way we can make more friends and build a bigger community of Toehider fans!
I quit my day job of teaching guitar to devote my life to writing songs and inspiring and entertaining people, and the Patreon is at the point where I'm being paid about half of what I was making teaching teenagers how to play Ed Sheeran songs. Which is mindblowing!! But I really feel that what Salty and I are doing is really, really good and also really important. I got into a conversation last night at the Progfest festival here in Melbourne about Patreon, and I was asked "do you think this is the future of how music is made, consumed, and appreciated?". And I didn't really know the answer. But I did say I was willing to find out!
So if you're keen to write a comment about your Patreon experience after (close to) one month, and you're okay with me screen capping it and using it on social media, it would be a huge help to us!!
Thanks in advance, you are all seriously just the best!!

More than happy! Lot's of content, insight into the creative processes of both of you and direct communication with fans. 10/10, keep up the good work, Mike and Salty!
I've never wanted to use Patreon before but I genuinely feel that Mike is someone whose talent is deserving of having the time and to make music without the constraints of having to find the monetary means to survive whist trying to be creative at the same time.
