"Clueless in Phoenix": Cute!

The way it worked is that ten people contributed about $200 (I forgot
the exact amount) and 6-7 minutes of music, and Neil Haverstick put them
all together into a real 1000-run CD. The goal then is that each of the
ten contributors gets about 100 of them that they may distribute as they
see fit. So presumably you'll see contributors advertising them soon.

Most likely we'll be selling them for something on the order of $10.

All-
I have made 1 minute Real Audio excerpts from the forum cd available
on my web page under the Listen to Microtonal Real Audio section.
Currently I have included myself, Neil Haverstick and Ernie Crews. If you
wish to give me permission to post your excerpt, please email me
privately and I will make it available immediately. I tried to use a
relatively energetic portion of each piece for the excerpts, and this may
not be appropriate for each piece. If you give me permission to post your
work and find that you are not pleased with the portion that I chose,
please let me know, and I can fix it within a day.

The forum CD is available for sale from Haverstick for $12.00 ($15.00
overseas) postage paid at P.O. box 150271 Lakewood CO 80215. I am
currently offline and as soon as I get back on, I will communicate with
the participants to arrange shipping. Of course other participants will
probably be selling CDs soon and you may wish to purchase one from them.
