<bullshit snipped> Gee, thanks - I can file this away with the other THREE copies that appeared in my mailbox from some "us-raves" mailing list that I was apparently subscribed to although I don't recall doing so. These spamming bastards are about as "underground" as my ass. Fuck 'em.

Someone really should drop our "underground" pals a line and let them know how successful their mail-out has been for them. :) Greg -- Greg Clow - greg@stainedproductions.com - greg@feedbackmonitor.com concert & event promotions - http://www.stainedproductions.com electronic music radio/reviews/interviews - http://www.feedbackmonitor.com 158 Close Ave. 2nd Floor - Toronto, Ontario M6K 2V5 - Canada --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

I have to agree on the bullshit thing there. Offworld can afford 2 page ads in MIXER. To come across as an 'underground label' needing help comes across as pretty pitiful.

ja the email was stupid (i've only gotten 3 copies so far...) but that is not to say that you should not watch AMP. although mtv gives the show minimal respect/airtime, i highly encourage all us poor americans to watch it when it comes on ; for the electronic music scene, it's a "foot in the door" of the realm of music videos. .af. ps; i'm sure we got the letter because offworldmusic somehow grabbed all the email addresses on hyperreal (and idm-l *is* a hyperreal list....) . --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
