---BLOOMINGTON SHOW AND CD NEWS--->
We’ll be having a small gig tonight
(August 1st) in Bloomington, Indiana:
Vollmar (band)
Elephant Micah
Microwave Background
The Cinemat (myspace.com/cinemat)
9pm, $3
Up until recently we expected this to be a kind of CD release show, but things
are still not going smoothly on that front. Sad to say, it’s been many of the same problems that we had with the Hindu Windmills CD—some relatively inexperienced people trying to do non-jewel packaging through relatively incompetent/uncommunicative manufacturers. Had I know
these issues would be so hard to get past (for either release, really) I would have been satisfied to put together a CDR myself, and
plan to reissue the recording properly as soon as I was in a position to do so. This may in fact be what ends up happening with the new disc. One way or another, I intend to get the music to people before the summer’s over.
