My first notice that it'd made it into the wider world (as in beyond the print edition of Connect Statesboro's 8,000 or so readers) was an e-mail from "Router" of "L337 GEEK BEAT" got in touch with me.
Here's the e-mail I received:
"hi. my name is mc router. im from 1337 GEEK BEAT.www.myspace.com/1gb

STAY 1337. STAY G33K."
The part that got my attention was "I read your review article that was posted on Rhymetorrents." It seems that Beefy, whose "Tub of Tabasco" I gave a shining review in the column, ran a Google search, found the piece, and posted a link on the Rhymetorrents forum.
I've learned a lot of good information from all this. First of all, MC Router of L337 GEEK BEAT and Nursehella are both pretty cute. After hearing MC Chris' really really high-pitched voice, my introduction to nerdcore, I was honestly surprised that they were both women.
Pleasantly surprised.
Also, I learned that Beefy, like me, obsessively googles himself. Unfortunately, I don't find him cute at all.
And yeah, I like L337 GEEK BEAT's stuff, too. Turns out they're in the process of rerecording a lot of the vocals on their stuff. The lyrics weren't weak, but some of the technical aspects of the voice recordings weren't quite up to par. I can't wait to hear the reworked versions.
