Townhaller jlaird emailed Cloud Records with a few questions that I'd been wondering about too, and the answers he received back are great. I'm copying them here in case some of you folks didn't see the thread.

Q: Hey, are there ever going to be more Will books available, I would desperately love one!!!!

A: Hopefully we'll have some more made soon. The materials we've been using have been discontinued by our local store so it has become harder to find them. Maybe check back later this fall.

Q: Also, how are the Cranberry [Life Cycle] and possible Synthetic [Flying Machine] tapes coming along?

A: We recently found some "lost" songs. Derek Almstead and Will Hart are mastering the tracks. Artwork still has to be done. Probably be released in the spring.

Q: Can anyone give any comment on the reported Elephant 6ers [The Observatory] at the REM tribute show??

A: I think it's Bill Doss, John Fernandes, Pete Erchick, Will Hart and Peter Alavanos (from Athens band Fabulous Bird). Should be good.

Q: Also, any comment and news on the Major Organ film?

A: They've still got some filming to do although they've begun editing. They're hoping to wrap it up soon since some of the kids in the film have already noticably aged since the beginning of filming.

Thanks so much to jlaird for rounding up some answers...sorry to have included Cranberry Life Cycle in our fall preview, but I did say "tentative," after all. It should be worth the wait.
