Josh Freese used to be the drummer for such bands as Nine Inch Nails, A Perfect Circle and Devo and now has released his own album. He's got a very innovative way of promoting it though. You can download it for $7, $15 gets you a CD/DVD copy, $50 gets you a CD/DVD copy, t-shirt plus a 5 minute personal phone call from the man himself!
$250 gets you a CD/DVD, signed drumstick plus lunch with Josh at P.F Changs.
and on it goes up to a $75,000 package...

You can see the full list here:

I guess you can say the promotion has worked... I'd heard of the guy but didn't know he was making his own music... maybe this is something Live could investigate...

Thanks for that - it was a good read. Sounds like Josh Freese is really going out of his way to make it a memorable week for the kid who purchased the package.
