re we are comming from.
I also want to flame the bastiches over at Epic. The last 2 IM studio lp's weren't the best they've done, but I didn't see, hear, read, or feel _any_ way shape or form of promotional effort by the Epic bastiches.
I work at a radio station and read the Industry newspaper, Radio and Records, and I saw promos for all other epic albums comming out at that time, except IM. I am glad to see IM back with Capitol, but hate the shit they had to go through to get back with them. Please let me know if you share my feelings.

Loyal Maiden listener since 1988 . . . and counting (FOREVER).
I can't remember the songs left off right off hand, if someone can please post them, but some
were. A CD can only hold 75 min. of music. LAD has well over 100 min. of music. Epic failed
to place ads for NPFTD and FOTD in the radio industry newspaper Radio and Records. Also,
I spoke to a couple of friends of mine who own record stores and they said they didn't get any
fraggin' promotional shit. And Jason, please send all Bastich heads to :

Loyal fan, I think you misunderstood what I was trying to say. I _don't_ want IM to get publicity
with the masses, just the record stores. If record store owners don't get promos from the record
co., they are less apt to order that recording, or will order it in smaller numbers. If you question
the level of my fandom, Loyal Maiden fan since 1984. . . and counting. I _never_ want to see IM change,
only that Record Co. Bastiches give 'em the respect they deserve by promoting the albums as much
as they should be to store owners, not on TV and radio. This is not a flame, just a clarification,
but _please_, let's not try to define a _true_ IM fan. As the fave song and fave album polls show,
we all are different in our IM tastes.
hmmmm..and when they would be really popular, you'd see little kids
with their dads, all waering IM shirts, cause the kids wanna look
tough, and the dads wanna 'show' that they are still young and tough..
(unsuccessfully)
Dont know how it is in other countries, but here, just look at what
publicity did to guns n[cencored!]...
oh well..
