Wow, that is so cool, Fico. Alas, I'll be in a conference call, but I'll be cheering you on in my head!
-
Sounds good, Fico!
:cool:
-
I was having drug induced dreams. Which song did they play?
Congratulations! Fuckface!
-
That is awesome - great news for the band (and D.C music for that matter.) I listen to Woxy when I am at work. Although I missed this program, I will keep an ear out for future spins...
-
Network bastards at work have blocked streams. I can't listen to WOXY all day any longer.
Congrats anyway.
-

Done and done -- see "Just Announced" thread. Woo hoo. And I *will* get by to one of those shows.
PS, love the MP3s -- wow, you guys have grown. I'm assuming EPs are available at your shows...
-
I keep bailing at the last minute on these Cartel shows. I finally brokedown and just ordered the EP from the website. Love it. I'm definitely going to try harder to get to a show soon.
-
They are playing "Fleets" right now. Second time I have heard you guys in the last week.
I wonder if jadetree will shake your hand when you become a big rock star?
-
Yea, I just heard it, listening to WOXY too.
I heard the song, but really wasn't paying attention (damn work), but then it caught my ear - great song. So I turned up the volume, and went to woxy.com to see who it was. Yea, Cartel!

I didn't care much for Jadetree...then he grew up and became Pollard...and I grew to luv him despite his dislike for Oasis which is usually a deal-breaker...
oh yeah..the Woxy thing...it's been pretty damn cool and all of us are chuffed to bits...i think they actually mentioned we'll be playing in NYC this Saturday...and our website traffic has gone up 42%...so slowly but surely things are happening on the Cartel camp...much of it thanks to you lot..so thanks from Cartel.

For those of you who've asked about our 7"...it's coming out in the UK on April 11...however, there is a slight chance we may have some copies by our 3/12 gig at Iota...oh and here's the cover art by Doves' graphic artist Mat Norma www.figfilm.co.uk (http://www.figfilm.co.uk)

Can we buy it through your website?
-
I'm still not sure..maybe they won't be sold directly through us, but through Bracken Records www.brackenrecords.com (http://www.brackenrecords.com)
It is a limited print of 500 copies, a bunch of them will go to "tastemakers" as they say in the UK..the rest will be sold at selected stores in the UK. We may get some very limited copies for sale here in the US...I'll most likely let you guys know through here or you can always check our website for the latest news...
thanks for listening :p

It is a well-documented fact that the members of this Forum are the preeminent makers of taste for the National Capital area.
In addition to recent mentions in the Post, the cutting-edge DC bloggers (http://theupstatelife.blogspot.com/) are even giving us "props."
When can we expect our promo copies of your new vinyl?
-
yeah have you not heard of "What's Up 7-inch?" my other DJ night?

I was actually hoping that you being the Fortune 500 board member you'd start your own label and put some money behind us...Lulu could be our tour manager and Ginger our bodyguard/driver...Markie is of course the street-teamer...so how about it?? we could be tax deductable...

Tax deductible because we'd be losing so much money?
-
Forget the money!!! it's about making "McEnroe Records" respectable!!

if you do have lulu as tour manager, make sure that lots of beer is mentioned in the rider, else the takings may vaporate each night...

Kosmo, there's always space in the van for a DJ/FOH..I know Kosmette may object but with Lulu taking care of all of us she should be fine with it...

i'll tell you what i don't get a lot of hits on my blog, but several of them are for google searches on cartel and fleets.
