Daily Press: 90,000 circulation weekly; 150,000 circulation weekend ed.
Note: Alan and I talk for 50 minutes about the Led Zeppelin reunion, Yes, CiRCA (the great new prog rock supergroup with Billy Sherwood, Tony Kaye, and Jimmy Haun - http://www.myspace.com/circahq), and his days with John Lennon's Plastic Ono Band.
I am currently shopping the interview around to major music content providers thus the delay in airing it.
Currently the Philadelphia Inquirer is interested (due to CiRCA's headlining ROSfest in May, 2008) and so is The Daily Press (above) in running a transcript of the interview. I will hear nothing more from either before the end of the Holiday season, however.
I interview Jimmy Haun of CiRCA in January and will thus have a full CiRCA package (interviews with Billy, Alan, Tony, and Jimmy) to offer the papers, zines, and web zines. Billy Sherwood is just awesome to work with!!! And if you haven't heard CiRCA's cd yet, you really need to! You can also catch them live out West in short order.
