Tabs needed

As you have probably noticed, we are a little short on newer tabs. Hit the Tabs section to see if you can help us in any way.

Specifically we are really needing to get some up for Jack’s ‘Sleep Through the Static’ and Matt’s ‘Unfamiliar Faces’ but we are more than willing to fill holes elsewhere. I will also build a page for the new GLASS album ‘Superhero Brother’ so we need to fill it as well.

And I haven’t built a page for Mason Jennings because there is already a pretty good collection over at Use Your Website.

We have also had some requests for other tabs/artists like Money Mark and Rogue Wave. Send them if you’ve got them.

You guys are the experts that keep us in business. Please keep us in business.

Muxtape

Just FYI for the slow-to-catch-on Internet users, Muxtapes rock. Simple, elegant, and user friendly. Justin hit a home run with this idea and I hope it does well for him. He and his ‘developer’ are adding features regularly and I expect the site just to keep getting better.

Muxtapes are a great way to discover new music and also create the perfect opportunity of one-click to the song purchase at Amazon. The way it should be. In the last two months I have found lots of things that I probably wouldn’t have normally listened to but them being stuffed in with other songs that I might has opened me up to them.

Muxtape call. Every now and then I will post a few Muxtapes I have found to be pretty good. If you have a good one or know of a good one, throw it in the comments below. And since I am asking for yours, I’ll go ahead and post mine as well.

Dave Reese

Since there’s been an overwheming response on the Steven Covell call, I thought I would try another.

Got a request for adding Dave Reese to the site. Listen: http://www.myspace.com/davereesemusic

Steven Covell

I got a note about adding Steven Covell to the site. I’ve listened a couple of times but I’m holding back my opinion to get a little help from the community (that’s you).

Check out Steven’s stuff @ www.purevolume.com/stephencovell and then vote below on whether or not he should be added to the artists page.

Leave a comment on why or why not. Be respectful.

wow, that took forever

Thanks to a move of server, my host completely demolished my hopes of a smooth transition. Sorry about the downtime, hopefully we’re up for good.

the new bm has arrived

We’re growing up and trying a few new things around here. My intentions were to diligently keep this site up from the start. Life caught up with me. Going self-employed was the first distraction from bm, when there are hours to be worked side projects become just that, side projects. Next up was the distance I allowed myself to get from the couple of guitars in my house and the music that accompanied them. Third was the addition of the third leg of the family. Kids, while uber-fun, take time and effort. And fourth, was the lack of good inspiring music over the last year or so.

So much for the excuses. Time to start fresh. I upgraded the site to a rockstar CMS and am thinking of some new possibilities.

One thing I enjoy doing is writing, this might be a good place for me to do that. We’ll see. Who knows, I might even let you write, if you’re good.

We started with the tabs, we’ve still got them. Always will. Guess it’s time to get some new ones up.

Tab call: give us what you’ve got. New Jack? Matt? ALO? Any others you think might fit in?

Good music? Still trying to promote it. In fact, run, don’t walk over to Les Eason’s site and pick up his debut album. Do it. Okay, you can’t buy it there but you can hear a couple of tracks and a little birdy told me that purchasing tracks right there is on the way.

Will take a little bit to move content, re-organize it, and purge the excess but we’ll get there.

The boards will be up soon, make sure you sign up when they are functional. Make that a place to be. Don’t suck and become CWBaer. No GIG.

Thanks to those of you who stuck around. We hope to see you around here more often. Tell your friends, we’re back. RSS us. Make us feel loved.

Anything special you’d like to see on the site? Anything missing?

Glad to be back.
