Mike certainly know this because we share the fact that Sparks are one of
our all-time favorite bands, but if anyone has heard or has a copy of this
(tape, cd-r, anything), please get in touch with one of us so we can bribe
you to no end w/ all sorts of our own rarities.

You'll get a Christmas card, too, okay? ;-)
