It will go dark at midnight as Tuesday turns to Wednesday courtesy of a rifle shot through the site's servers courtesy of Richard Betts's hunting rifle.

I'll give you that one made me laugh.

What will happen after the Beacon run? Does everyone intend to continue the postings and dialogue that we have developed for so many years. Many people have gone but there is still a core of folks. Just wondering.

The site goes on as do the usual suspects who come by to post. The Whippin Post posters will still be there, and the gentler Anything Goes folks will still be here.

The silence around on show nights is deafening...

I still recall having such fun with watching/listening to moogis and the live threads here...great times....knowing others are digging the same thing you are at the same time...something special about that...

The world changes....this site was a big deal for many of us and I hope people hang around...still lots of great music to discuss and rediscuss over and over and with the individual members bands,small and large reunions,there's lot more music to talk about.

So to the few regulars,old and new,that hang in,good for us....unless the site is closed down....sure hope not!

BTW,Anyone have an extra ticket or the last night?!
