Actually, certain small markets are making a bit of a niche for B&S...especially on the college circuit... Here in Atlanta, Criminal Records in Little Five Points and stations WREK (Georgia Tech) and WRAS (Georgia State) have had B&S on their heavy rotation lists for months now...also, Criminal has been pushing the album rather heavily, giving it a great review in their self-published fanzine... So, among college folk down here, they're not unheard of...now, in Kansas, well, I can't say...;P --Steven *************************************************************************** Steven Goldman * * Box 22688 * Fun-lover, pop freak, sometimes * Emory University * DJ, and aspiring actor/writer/director * Atlanta, GA 30322 * * (404) 251-8310 * "Faith manages." * sgold06@emory.edu * --Delenn, "Babylon 5" * WWW: http://tswww.cc.emory.edu/~sgold06 * *************************************************************************** On Tue, 30 Sep 1997, Kelso wrote:

Hmmmm, maybe the revolution in the UK has begun, but without a label here in the US we have little to fear. B&S will stay very much underground without a label to promote them. Commercial radio over here will never bite on this band unless a label forces them to pay attention to the record. I'm sort of happy about that aspect of them not having a label here right now. And that is nothing against B&S' success, as it is that I can only wish the band nothing but that....it's just that I think I'd selfishly prefer them to stay on as a delightful little band known by a select few who truly understand, who truly appreciate, than see them become pop superstars known by everyone worldwide. Than have them be as familiar to the masses as REM and U2.
By the way, there are lots of rumours as to who are going to represent the band labelwise in the US now that The Enclave is gone, but has any real deal been worked out?
