First,

 

Thanks Jeff for putting my band, CHEAP STAR in your list!

 

We had great reveiws so far....from Posies and Teenage Fanclub fans for the mots part ;-)

 

Alos we have a split ep out that we did with Jon Auer....;he covered us....we did the same, there's one original and one special cover....us is a Byrds songs (of course!)

 

Check our myspcae www.myspace.com/cheapstar

or CD Baby to get it (for cheap!)

 

And thanks to this list...without it I wouldn't have discover gems like Anne Soldat (Darryl Ann) solo ep, produced by JASON FALKNER...classy...

 

Cheers
