Sleeper gets big audience
Wed, 24 Jul 2002 21:38:50 EDT

Hi all,

I am the audio engineer for a popular American television talk show called "Live with Regis And Kelly". The Americans probably know the show, but not most of you brits, (though it is shown in England on some channel).

Every day I select a portion of a song for our contest segment, usually a high energy riff, usually from a well known song. But I love to slip in something I like, especially if we're taping more than one show a day. So for Monday's show (9AM EST) listen in if you can. I ended up playing a bit of "Dress Like Your Mother" of all songs. (Tried to do "Nice Guy Eddie" but my coworkers vetoed it in favor of the former.)

Our show averages 5.5 Million viewers, perhaps Sleeper's biggest audience if only for a portion of the song. I wish I could tell Louise or the other members of the band.
