Larger than me

If we don't play tomorrow, we'll never play again

The tragic deaths of young people at the Loveparade last weekend instantly brought memories of  Cincinnati in 1979 back. Eleven fans died at a concert of The Who and neither the band nor the audience did get to know this until the show was finished. Read more about itin this classic Time article "Music: The Stampede to Tragedy".

Spam Of The Day

Way back in 2000, you bought a CD from my store, CD Baby.
 (BILLIE RAY MARTIN: four ambient tales. Remember?)
So you might be interested in my new free projects to help musicians:
(...)
They're all free, open-source, and non-commercial (except MuckWork), so I'm not emailing you for any business reason.
But since we've emailed in the past, I thought I should let you know what's new.
I left CD Baby two years ago, so this is the last time you'll hear from me, unless you reply back or click those links.
Though if you do reply, please let me know what's going on with you (really!), in case I can help in any way, and to keep this from being a one-sided conversation. :-)
Thanks!

Back at last!

tvc15 is back and thinks it now is a perfect time to rewind to the February of 2010. Think of: loads of snow, frosty temperatures and icy winds. And some memories of Stockholm!
