    Extra Points just did a feature on Yao, complete with the
    ORIGINAL Yao Ming song, complete with the line "Forget
    about Shaq, he could stuff Chewbacca!"

    ROCK ON

    Its on CH. 13, they featured your name in the little box graphic while they played the song. Tim something referenced the song during an interview with Charlie Parillo and 2 other guys.

    I've noticed that also! Yao Ming has been doing great, and I think the crowd would really get into chanting Yao Ming if only they'd play the song!

    I dunno...I'll ask The Rockets. The seem to make some weird decisions on what to play...They want to be novel and fresh but all I ever hear is clap...clap...clap.clap.clap...clapclapclap.clap..clap.clap and other stupid crap I have been hearing for ten years.

    Man, it'd be so cool if fans just start chanting the song every game. It'd be like a Rockets tradition or something.

    Coincidence??

    Chance, kudos for the song and congrats for the exposure. I record digitally at home using Sonar. Was the song recorded analog, or digitally with a "warmer"?

    Both, actually. We lay it out digitally in Cubase but some of the components are analog.

    I have come to appreciate the criticism. I have received so many positive comments that the negativity is like a needle in a haystack and I like it. Keeps me from getting full of myself and and bossing my wife around saying things like, "You shall get me a Keystone Beer post haste wench!"
