Not a Good Week for Thrown or Steal

This is the week fans should officially be requesting the songs from radio. As for the grassroot campaign, I agree...it's going to take a lot of work to get these songs played, particularly since the album is off the charts and the band isn't even in the country! So every fan that reads and posts to these boards has to put in some effort. That's how the fans of all the junk artists get their songs played... Of course, their fanbase is much larger than ours, and most of them are teenagers who aren't embarrassed to request songs from radio stations.

I would advise everyone to make a request, but PLEASE don't go overboard. I've done work at three local radio stations (nothing special, just behind the scenes work that doesn't pay!) and the more a song is requested, the least likely it is to be played. DJs are assholes and the program directors are moreso, so keep that in mind.
