There I was, expecting to have to wait until Tuesday to get a copy of TRS. Friday morning I heard a local radio station announce that they'd be giving copies of the CD away, but I didn't hear what the rules for the contest were. Later that afternoon I heard them play "Man With the Child.." and called the station to find out how to win the CD. The DJ played three songs and asked for callers to tell them which songs had been played, and which albums they were from. After hearing ETM and RUTH I made a list. I know, I know, I shouldn't have had to write them down, but I was nervous that I'd mess something up and LOSE. I was the first caller through and in a shaky voice, read my list to the DJ. Since the station's office is only open till 5:30 I had to leave work early on Friday to pick up my prize. I hurried across town, fretting all the while that I would make it to the station just as they locked the doors. I imagined the receptionist laughing maniacally as I banged on the door, begging for my copy of TRS. Anyway, I guess the promo contest was a success because the receptionist told me that people had been coming in all day to pick up the CD and that the winners all had the same reaction that I did. Maybe this bodes well for TRS. I hope so. Richard and I listened to it Friday night, and Saturday night we took the CD to a Halloween party. It was a hit. Several people asked about the album, so I hope they are interested enough to go buy TRS. Winning that CD made my weekend. After over a month of listening to the tape, I was thrilled to get the CD. There's so much we missed. Now to get the video... Melissa Caldwell You want my reply? The Big Sky BBS (+1 614 864 1198) What was the question? mdc@bsbbs.columbus.oh.us I was looking at the Big Sky
