Yes, it is *quite* a campaign. Already I have seen *two* articles about it in _Jam_, Florida's totally lame but well read **Jam mostly favors Florida's hair-metal scene!!!** :) free mag. It was *very humorous* to me to see FSOL so well covered by this particular publication... Anyway, I'm going to try to tape the WMNF broadcast, which I *think* will be a full hour. Yes, I would be interested in trading... more on that later! On a similar note, I just saw in a recent Rolling Stone that they gave Aphex Twin's Selected Ambient Vol. 2 a **** rating (this is very good for RS) and a pretty good review. I can also attest that FSOL sold *60* copies in the first week at Alternative Records here in Tampa. The audience for ambient-music *here* seems to be a combo of techno-kids and brainy (older) people who want New Age-ish music that challenges them rather than puts them to sleep... (or at least gives them cool dreams when it puts them to sleep) hmmmm....cool, methinks! ***************Greg******Dean******Schmitz*************** ************"I danced my way out of the womb,************ ************ I'll dance my way into the tomb...********** ************ Is it strange to dance so soon?"************ ************ from "Cosmic Dancer" by T.Rex.************** ***************Greg******Dean******Schmitz***************
