They were probably all on vacation? No matter what their response, more industry people will have become aware of your music and that can only be a good thing in the long run. [img]smileys/smiley14.gif[/img]

Ali i have listened to your music for the past couple of weeks, and i love it so much. It's like something I've never heard before, just like Damien's music. I guess thats what happens when you live in the states (you dont get to good music here). I love your song, "Devil in Desguise". It's grand. will you ever come to the states ? Your Great!
