I received an email from The Scorpions' mailing list the other day. I thought that it might be a good idea to share it, since some of you might not be on the list. My dear Wolfgang's English is still as sad and pathetic as ever, so this has been edited!
The E-mail
You can help to promote the new album. How? Contact the radio stations by mail or phone and ask them to play songs from the new Scorpions CD (Unbreakable). Following, you will find a link to a website called Radio Locator. The site lists many radio stations worldwide, along with links to their websites which contain the addresses and telephone numbers for contacting them.
It is such a sorry situaton that a band this talented has to resort to asking fans to beg radio stations to play their material! I always knew that the program directors of most radio stations in Pittsburgh were a bunch of blithering idiots, but this email seems to suggest that the problem is worldwide! So, let's get off our proverbial hinies and let these radio guys know what we want to hear. Nevermind that the realease date for Unbreakable is not until June 22 in the U. S. Diehards like myself had it imported from Germany, and we know that it is fantastic!
If you live in the Greater Pittsburgh Area, the radio station to contact is WDVE. Contact them by phone at: 412-333-WDVE(9383) Or by mail at: WDVE-FM 200 Fleet Street Pittsburgh, PA 15220
