alright...there is some definite confusion going on with this tribute tape of ours. first of all, i do agree with bruce that a "tape trade" would be the smartest way to go, meaning that the individual tapes would be sent to me, and i would then dub the songs onto a tape. then, i would send that tape to the next person who wants it, and they would dub and send it on to the next person...etc, you get the point. yeah, the sound quality will be pretty nasty, but i dont think anyone is expecting it to be crystal clear. secondly, this is an excerpt from an email that i recieved today... "Hi, my name is Dave from Signal to Noise Records. A small but reputable company out of College Park, MD.......Have you covered your ass legally? How many are going to be printed? What kind of distro., etc? Please get back to me a.s.a.p." ...i wrote the guy back saying that he was probably making it into a bigger thing than we want it to be...but should we be worried about any of this shit? finally, i think that repetitions would be a nice thing for this tape...that way, every one is happy cos they can do the song(s) they wish without having to "call their song" first...and obviously, it would expose us to different interpretations. (sorry bout the length of this) *carrie
