| Fran, if you are lurking about, just curious why you decided to release Ode to J. Smith on Election Day here in the U.S. Everyone will be standing in line 6+ hours and won't be able to buy your album ;) |

Buy it first and listen with headphones while you're in line!

| At least you'll have something interesting to do that day, US elections should be banned for reasons of international boredom. |

I dont think they planned it for election day, i think thats when they could arrange distribution (see: whatever that thread was where we all freaked out about international release dates).
And, sidenote. it takes 6 hours to vote??!! perhaps there should be more polling stations!
and yes, im with Kayte. And also, play it a little louder than normal and share with those in line with you. |

yeah they are expecting bigger than normal crowds. Though I certainly hope no one has to wait 6 hours.

Early voting lines have been that long actually. Crazy I know. I pre-ordered the album from the UK so I got it a week later than they did :) I have been listening to it since then. I thought the few extra dollars were worth it. So I will have it on my iPod while I wait in line fo'shizzle. |

| Are there some people who queue up for hours beforehand? I don't think I'd vote if I had to wait more than a few minutes, he's only the world's most powerful man, it's nothing special :P |

I think it's more they show up and if it's really crowded it'll take awhile.
It really doesn't matter who I vote for for president because McCain is definitely going to win Texas but there are some local things I definitely want to vote on. |
