Where does the time go?  In my mind it feels like it has only been a few years since I last blogged here until you look at the dates.  Eight years is quite a lengthy break.  Just thinking back on the bands alone that I never blogged about is enough to almost make you cry.  So many bands have come and gone in these forgotten years; but I am back now and intend to update this site regularly once again.  More so than ever I feel I need to blog again.  Current events in my life almost necessitate it, it seems.  I really only stopped posting because I grew somewhat disillusioned last time with blogging.  Between that disillusionment and my eventually moving back to the East Coast resulted first in my neglect and then ultimately in my total abandonment of the site.  I hope to never let that happened again.  Hopefully I can have this blog back to running like I want in a few days and new posts will start tonight or tomorrow!  I can't tell you how much I am looking forward to sharing new and old bands and music with the world again.  It has definitely been far too long of a hiatus here and this new adventure will be worthwhile, I promise!

A big thanks to all those who read the blog before and to all those who might discover it now and in the future.


Sincerely, thank you, every last one of you,


Duane Sawyer
