1) THE NEW SINGLE IS IN CHARTS
Ian's new single, 'When The World Was Round', is current at #86 in
the mid-week charts. Just a few hundred more sales THIS WEEK could
push him into the Top 40!
If you are in the UK and haven't bought a copy yet, why not take a
few minutes and order all three versions (vinyl picture disc, CD
single, and DVD single) from Townsend for the low combined price of
just 3.99 GBP? Why not pick up a few extra copies as gifts for the
holidays?
If you are outside the UK, ask one of your UK friends to buy them for
you, so that the sales are counted toward the charts!

did Shrunken Heads, I felt like we had a good thing going so I wanted to revisit
the experience before anything changed, and that's what we did."
