8.10.07 My understanding is that many people are having a hard time getting "Waters Rising". As you might already know, the music industry is going through some major changes, the last 6 months having some of the most critical effects. One of the philosophies being followed in almost all concrete stores today is this... 1) They do not bring in the CD unless you buy your way in, or 2) The store receives enough requests to warrant bringing a copy in for stock. Knowing this, here is my suggestion... Explain to the fans, that are looking for the CD, that it is available everywhere but they may need to special order it with their local retailer. If the retailer is not willing to take the order, go to another store. This is actually an important step to happen that will help us too. This is what I call "Reverse Awareness" where the customer is informing the business. If the fan is not willing to go through that and does not want to wait, you may refer them directly to Metro City Records or they can call us here directly to place the order and I will get it out to them right away. 603-629-9102 If you have some questions about this, let me know. Thanks, Bill Metro City Records
