*** Greatest Gainer

Chart Notes:
   Modest Mouse sets a College Air longevity record this week.  The previous record was a
tie between Grandaddy's "Now It's On" and Radiohead's "There, There."  Both titles,
coincidentally, debuted in the same week, May 12, 2003, back when the chart was only 20
positions.  With the chart currently at 30 positions, Modest Mouse's record may seem
dubious at first, but "Float On" has been well within the top 20 during its entire chart
run so far.  In fact, it has never been lower than number 12, and should be able to pad
its new record in the coming weeks.

Up and Coming:
   Album Leaf - "Thule"

Deeper Cuts:
   Wilco - "Spiders"
   Beastie Boys - "An Open Letter to NYC"
