Wasn't that on the Moments of EP? That particular DJ stopped playing 
TSW as soon as the Moments EP came out. I'm Still Waiting must be a 
favorite with her. Either that or she hated TSW.

That DJ only recently stopped playing Elvis on the New Releases 
show! But seriously, XRT's really gone stale lately (though it 
gets a bit better after dark). What really ticks me off is that
they'll announce all sorts of wonderful concerts by new bands but
won't play ANYTHING from them (sometimes they will play stuff an 
hour before the concert and MAYBE the next day if the DJ went).
