	TAXI FAQs: Promotion: How To Present Your Demo Tape
		Demo listeners like watching the "in" pile diminish and the "out" pile grow as quickly as possible.
		So if you send a demo with ten songs on it and someone else's demo has one song, you can bet that the "out" pile will grow quickly with one-song demos.

	The Death of the Demo Tape (At Last)
		Needless to say, the vast majority of demos were rejected (and often not even listened to).
		And with the price of forty-five minutes of chrome cassette tape hovering at around $2, compared to at least $30 for an equivalent amount of the half-inch reel-to-reel item, tape was as free as studio time.
		In fact, an all-cassette format made more sense for many reasons: cassettes could be duplicated easily and cheaply (one at a time if necessary); great individual care could be given to their packaging and decoration; and they could be distributed anywhere in the world via the public mails.

	#14 Reviews [Demo tapes/7" EPs] (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The sound of this demo is very obscure, it seems that it was recorded in a rehearsal room, thus the songs can hardly win the sympathy of the listeners.
		The new tape "In the Abyss of Dreams..." was recorded with a different singer, is heavier and, at the same time, better than the previous demo.
		Such a demo could well be recorded in the late 80's, because it delivers obscure, epic-sounding speed/heavy metal with high vocals, a quite common style back then.

	DigiJAM: Pearl Jam DAT Tapers & Traders (Site not responding. Last check: )
		This piece was written with the owner of the tape - an exuberant and generous fan - and hopefully is another chapter in the story of early Pearl Jam demos.
		On this tape, the instrumental after "Yellow Ledbetter" is labeled "Weird A", but it is the same short instrumental improv previously circulated from 10/13, rather than the "Weird A" which appears on the Gossman Project demos - Stone's original intrumental demos - which was an early version of "Animal".
		The 10/13 tape has been in hiding for years, and has been the subject of much anticipation since the J-card was posted, but I seriously doubt if it's going to be any different from what we've already heard.
