Updated May 10, 2000. This
is when April found out what MaChanson meant.
This is from April
about MaChanson: I'm pretty sure that
"Chanson" means "Song" in French and I know that
"Ma" means "my". So I thought it was incorporating
Hanson with "My Song". I wasn't sure if you were aware of that
or not. Kind of cool though.
Chris in
response: That is cool! I thought that was weird when you
told me this because it sounds like we are saying "Hanson is our
song" kind of cool! But for everyone who does not
know....MaChanson is our names put together with Hanson. (Ma =
Malia) (Ch = Chris) (anson = Hanson when added to Ch)
-Hanson's boundless
artistic merits are being vindicated from yet another angle: collectors
are paying _big_ bucks for rare CDs featuring the Tulsa Threesome's
early work. On 25 April a Hanson CD -- the mythical indie album
'Boomerang' -- sold on eBay for no less than... 760 dollars! yes, you
read correctly; that's seven hundred and sixty bucks. The auction (now
ended) can be viewed by clicking here.
Never mind vinyl -- sums of this magnitude invite comparison with
nothing less than the market for the rarest of early Beatles records!
***Here are some words from Christopher Sabec:
"We are getting feedback from stations that e-mailing stations has ZERO effect and if anything actually hurts them. Advise your friends to call (only request lines...NEVER business lines) for the single, 'IF ONLY' and try to keep within your listening area. The stations are smart and if they think people are calling from outside the area they become annoyed. PLEASE spread the word on this. I plan on posting to Hansonline about this soon. Second, I think a real help is to spread the word to music lovers who have
not yet discovered Hanson. The guys are all about turning on new fans to their music and I think this type of grass roots campaigning really solidifies the roots of the the band's support." Christopher
