Mode,” shortly after the formation of
the label. Lanker said he felt lucky
to be signed so quickly and praised
Leisure King’s support.
“We got signed to a record label
with basically no fan base,”
Lanker said. “We essentially start
ed from scratch.”
McLean said he is taking a cau
tious approach to signing more
artists; he briefly considered ex
panding the company’s local scope
to include a band from Los Angeles,
but quickly reconsidered this due to
monetary factors.
“The time and expense of moni
toring something like that would
definitely be prohibitive,” he said.
Label musicians record at the lo
cal Gung-Ho Recording studios, and
the label’s albums are released
through Burnside Distribution Cor
poration in Portland. Design and
work on the label’s Web site is
farmed out locally.
Although Leisure King’s albums
are available at Tower Records
stores, most of the label’s sales
come from online retailers. McLean
cited GDBaby.com, although Ama
zon.com also carries Leisure King
albums. Locally, the label’s releas
es are available at Compact Disc
World, Face the Music, House of
Records and Borders.
McLean said in spite of distribu
tion, the label struggles to make it
self visible. He expressed surprise in
how well online sales worked and
said he doesn’t consider the label’s
success typical.
“In the standard world of busi
ness, are we successful? No, we are
not,” he said. “On the other hand,
the point is to make some damn
good records. And I think that
makes us successful.”

Skiing
continued from page 5
“Conditions are great this time of
year,” Johnston said. “We might get
50 inches of snow, but then three
days of sun, and you’re left with this
beautiful light, dry powder.”
These ideal snow conditions are
due in large part to Mount Bache
lor’s position on the eastern side of
the Cascades, where snow falls
lighter and drier than most North
west resorts. When the weather is
clear, Mount Shasta is visible 180
miles south.
Avid skier and University student
Joe Dimick said Mount Bachelor is
one of his favorite ski spots, espe
cially in the spring.
“It’s just nice not to freeze to
death out there while you’re try
ing to enjoy the slopes,” Dimick
r
said. “Spring skiing at Bachelor is
just a lot more relaxing.”
On Monday, Mount Bachelor be
gan offering a spring season five-day
pass. The $125 picture pass is avail
able online and is valid from April
21 to the end of the season —
scheduled for May 26, depending on
the weather and customer demand.
Johnston said that spring holds
many more activities than just ski
ing or snowboarding at Bachelor. On
May 2 and 3, the resort is offering
the Subaru Race and Ace Challenge,
an event combining skiing or snow
boarding and golf. Johnston said
participants ski or snowboard on a
gated course one day, then golf 18
holes at Sunriver Resort the next.
Registration is $99 per player or
$396 for four-member team entries.
