That's terrific!  I heard the tail end of that song myself today on
that radio station, so I know they're playing it.  They distribute
their playlist at Tower Records, and on the current one "Eat the Music"
has entered their chart at no. 24.

In national chart news, Radio & Records has it at no. 15 on their
"New Rock" chart, which is approximately the equivalent of Billboard's
"Modern Rock" chart.  The song has not yet appeared on Billboard's
chart, however.  I think it probably will very soon.
