Subject URL: R.E.M.

I plan to get "Reveal" when next I'm near JB-HiFi based on "Imitations Of Life" and the recomendations of a friend. The MTV.com interview linked above has some quotes about Napster :

Buck: File sharing is here to stay. People are gonna do it. And I think if people wanna ... exchange files, it's great. I kind of resent a major corporation becoming billionaires by giving my music away, but not to the point where I'd sue... Let's face it. Anything that helps destroy the music industry is probably going to be a good thing.

Subject URL: Faith No More - Under The Covers

FNM Under The Covers is a page I've spent a lot of my time on but have let to rot over the last two years or so. Andy at cv.org has finally updated the front page to indicate it's no longer running (thanks Andy ;p). Originally a site for FNM live concert MP3s, it moved on to hosting FNM fan covers.

The site will remain on life support despite being braindead, with all the archive of some good, some bad covers (including my own) and a good collection of FNM midi/MOD/tracker files.

Amazing how much time and effort went into these pages only to see them die...

Subject URL: Preshrunk.net moving

I've just got myself some darn cheap ASP/SQL hosting in the US so preshrunk.net is moving there (it should be broken for now while the IP moves). Hopefully it'll make updates a lot easier on me with a web interface for uploading images, and I might even set up a quick and nasty fan submission page for setlists, reviews and photos. So if images are busted, it's because I havn't uploaded them yet. Get over it.

Subject URL: Dildos are us

Short little glimpse at what I do. Just finished off the back-end for Downundertoys.com.au for work. If you're into little buzzing platypus(sy) that fit into the palm of your hand, check it out. Now if I can just shake the name "Dildo Boy" things can get back to normal around here.

What drugs have HMV been taking? AUD$43.95 for Snatch? It's only low $30s at most places and only $29.95 through CDShop.MP3.com.au. I'm not going to put up with DVD resellers uping prices just because it's a 2-DVD like they used to for CDs. Unacceptable. Although nice arguement is that they're just covering the cost of all the rotted ones coming back... ;p

Subject URL: Regurgitator tour

Regurgitator will tour as a three piece. That is Quan Yeomans and bass guitarist Ben Ely, with "session drummer" Peter Kostic. So no Shane. Sad panda... New single Fat Cop in stores 4th June.
