YTSEJAM Digest 7193 Today's Topics: 1) Album sales by "Paul W. Cashman" ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Sun, 07 Aug 2005 01:25:11 -0400 From: "Paul W.

Remember, it took YEARS for Images and Words to go gold. Most artists on, say, Roadrunner or Century Media would be tickled to sell 53K CDs. DT doesn't quite get 'zero' airplay, thankfully. :) We've been playing them on 91.1 FM here, the WREKage show (www.wrekage.org), on and off for years. Great Gigantour show here in Atlanta last night, but I heard that there was some sort of screw-up with the 'special' backstage passes that DT fans could purchase (for $250, I think) to go to a meet'n'greet. Symphony X were unable to play because of tour bus (actually tour-bus driver) concerns. Otherwise it was a pretty good and decently-organized show. I'll have pics posted on my site fairly soon. (I was able to get my camera in, using the "golly-its-small-and-cheap-looking" tactic. :)) -- +----------- Paul W.
