January 30 - The Wild Party... For the regulars - I hit a few record stores over the weekend and updated the Playlist. Speaking of my playlist... I'm *seriously* digging this new Tesla cd... January 27 - Friends In Low Places...   Don't ask me how I got it, 'cause I'm not tellin'. And no, I can't get any more, though I will beg for a copy or two to give away here... But if I can't get one, you'll just have to wait until March 9, when it'll be released. (But if you visit their website and pre-order, you might be able to get it a little earlier) Full review will be sometime over the next few days... But I will say that based on first impression, it rocks harder than anything they've ever done. Tesla still rules. Off to the gym now! January 25 - Boo Hoo. Oh well... Got a lot of work to do, so I'd better get back to it. I'll probably be asking a lot of you for some help with a project - don't worry, it won't be too hard - so please check back soon. January 24 - Proud or Ashamed? Added some new "features". well, they're not really "new", but they were features that for some reason just didn't get noticed. Since cheeseburgers, beaches, and the Bahamas are passions of mine on the same level as music, I only thought it fair to have them represented as well. Also, now it doesn't look so friggin' empty over there while we all wait for another creative muse to strike. Lord knows when that might happen... January 23 - Told ya... Spent some time re-coding the other pages, too. I lost track of which ones are finished and which ones aren't. It's not important - nothing around here ever really gets finished anyways. Some Sad News
If you get a minute, please wish Staci luck with her new endeavors... I don't know what the future holds for her show, but frankly, I can't imagine some form of it NOT coming along with her... One of the stations she'll be working for currently has a retro format... maybe a little grassroots campaign for a show of CWR's caliber is in order... Hmmm... I do love a challenge. So at the very least, I ask all FJ.com readers to head over to my Def Leppard photo page, put on a copy of "High N Dry", and open up a bottle of good merlot. Cool? January 22 - Mea Culpa Too bad I missed the raging fight over on the Message Board... It was kinda funny to pop over there and see a thread with 47 replies. Even God Himself made an appearance. Hope He ends up buying a shirt... But yes, 'tis another redesign. There's still a lot of work to do to get it all back up, but once it is, I'll actually get back to updating on a more regular basis. I know that the site's pretty much sucked for the last few months. Actually, it's sucked for a lot longer than that, but at least I did a better job of hiding it then... Anyhow, hope you dig the new look. The other pages will be converted in the near future. Scrapped was the Topics section. I just didn't put enough effort into it, and frankly, if I wanted to do that, I'd try to get a job writing commentary for the op/ed section of the newspaper. Added was a new sidebar where cool stuff that doesn't fit in anywhere else will go - video, audio, stupid articles or photo archives, etc. I also brought the music links and personal favorites back onto the front page. And yes, I really was listening to Danger Danger while I was re-coding... More brilliant commentary tomorrow! And actual updates to actual feature pages! I promise! To the folks who still pop in - Thanks for hanging in there with me. I hope I can make it worth your while to keep sticking around. |
