Forgive me

[THE OLIVE-LOAF VIGILANTE <METH@delphi.com>]

Hi!
 
First off, I feel obligated to mention that I heard "Pull Out The Pin" on
the radio yesterday evening, as I was driving home listening to WPKN (89.5
FM) in Bridgeport, CT.  Friday evenings are optimal times for listening (to
me, anyway :), especially because the music one hears then is just excellent.
I don't think I've ever heard POTP on the radio before -- it was rather neat.
It's also been such a long time since I heard *anything* by KaTe on the
radio anywhere that it took me doubly by surprise...
 
IED elucidated:

Aha -- somehow managed to miss those critical details there.  Despite the
suggestions that others have given re writing the creators of the tribute
album to suggest that they include this Kate track, I think that exercise
is pretty futile: with a fall release date that probably means that the
entire project has already been mapped out and the tracks in the mixing
stage -- had we heard of this a year ago maybe we could have achieved
something, but it's probably much too late now.  Sigh.
 
IED admonished:

I have most definitely been caught up in the rat race too long (not to 
mention living entirely too close to New York City for my own good).  I
offer the humblest and most sincere apologies for this lapse, and vow to
show more patience in future.  I hope the venerable IED can find it in his
diamantine heart to forgive me.
