i'D LIKE TO GET YOU ON A SLOW BUS TO WALMART

[fredxmertz]

yeah, so the burp ups were somehow KINDA popular on KWVA. the secret hippie said he used to play it a lot.
expecially the song "TAIWAN" got a lot of airplay. Glenn said that the KWVA news team picked it as 'song of the week' , even thought they'd never had a 'song of the wek' before. Jon Grant said he gavea CD to the owner of a skate shop in Santa Cruz and they used it for a TV commercial.
The Burp Ups site is on freewebs.com- this service got updated a while back and now i can't get in to update the site.
