[kj] KJ@CMJ in NYC - LATEST DEVELOPMENTS

[sade1]

   Would it make a difference if we could all e-mail the CMJ
event or some sort of an online petition to help get KJ a better
showing at the event.  Maybe the CMJ hav no real idea how much
KJ is appreciated, and that they've inspired so many bands.
