RR,
Who you callin an amateur, son?  If you mean amateur, as in the
literal translation, from the Latin 'amo', to love, then no problem.
I hang out with a lot of working musicians, and I don't think any of
them read RS, at least not on any regular basis.  If you think that
guitar magazines only have article about how to hot wire a
Stratocaster to get all three pickups on at once, then you're
mistaken.  I never listen to the radio [other than N.P.R.--BTW,
there's an interesting idea for Surgeons exposure.  Deb, contact
Terri Gross at N.P.R.  I think she might feature you and Al on 'Fresh
Air.] and I get all my impressions on new music from record reviews
and interviews with musicians that I read in guitar magazines.

I think a plug in 'Guitar World' would do wonders for the Surgeons.
