Help The Wild make their new record

The Wild is probably my second favorite band and they are working on a new record. they have a Kickstarter, go donate what you can. I have heard some songs that are going to be on this, it should be great. These guys are my best friends, they are great people and they have great music. if you ever see them at a show, tell them I sent you. Here is what they said on their facebook page:

Hey everyone!! We're really excited about recording our new album with Tom Gabel at her studio in St Augustine late this summer! We need your help to cover studio costs. Anything you can contribute will be much appreciated. Please check out our kickstarter page. We love you!!

Interview with Thomas, New record in July!

In an interview with bombshellzine.com Thomas Barnett mentions that the band is "Finishing up the artwork and production for “In Defiance Of Empty Times”, our new Live Acoustic LP which will come out this July." he also says there will be another South American tour in November. That's fine and good, but in my opinion they need an American south tour, specifically in Atlanta. You can read the full interview here:

Welcome to Chorus of One 4.0

I have completely redesigned the entire site (or at least the home page the rest will come soon). with real CSS style sheets and LCARS controls. This is what I have always wanted the site to look like but was to lazy to do. The website from before the LCARS conversion will retain most of it's original appearance and will be returned to it's original condition whenever it gets archived. I will keep the last version of the website (v3.51) online forever here.All of the LCARS-based parts of the website have been run through a CSS Compatibility verifier and are functional. this page has 314 errors on it now, but all of them are from in non-LCARS part of the page and are due to FrontPage's sloppy code. they will not be fixed. All other pages on the site will have as few errors as possible on them.

The Future of radio shows is here! Also this website!

So I made a stand-alone radio show program thing that you can read about and download here. Also, That page uses an entirely new formatting system, which has been adapted to this page, and will eventually be adapted to the entire website. To properly use it on the rest of the website, I will have to remove all HTML formatting and use the CSS style tags to set everything up. Remember, that the forum's appearance will never change until I figure out how to make a theme for it.

All the news from 2011 has now been archived, you can find it here. As you can see, I am still using the LCARS font. This will not be posted on the forum.

This is what happens when I learn CSS

So, now I can sort of use other fonts here that you may not have installed on your computer. I don't know if the whole website is going to be like this or not because, as of now, I have a weird half-CSS half HTML formatting system set up where the default font is set from CSS but the color and size is set in HTML and it is really complicated and weird and I need to unify everything under one system if I am going to do this, so for now there is this one post and that is all. but imagine if the whole website looked like this! Also, I just realized the LCARS font IS sort of hard to read.

Also, if this shows up as Times New Roman then you are using an outdated browser or the latest Internet Explorer, shame on you!

Stay Sweet was rad!

I have talked about it in so many other places so many times that posting again here would just be pointless because nobody will read it anyway. I saw tons of great bands, and found out about tons more, I am going to have to say that it was the greatest weekend of my life, and the AJJ/Joyce Manor show and secret Joyce Manor show in Atlanta was the perfect end to it. there is so much stuff I want to say that I can't think of and I would like to thank James for going with me and everyone I met in Richmond for being awesome.

Hey, only 65 days until PIX Fest!

Thank you, Google

at some point today I accidentally deleted the index.html of the website. Fortunately, it was cached on Google and I was able to get everything back except for that post yesterday, and it was easy to recreate.

Also, on the off chance someone reads this and is going to stay sweet (I know nobody reads this, so there is no need to ask but I will anyway) then we should try to meet up and do stuff. What kind of stuff? I don't know. Who do you think I am a person who can come up with fun ideas?

Strike Anywhere News- submitted by StrikeAnywhere4Life

Official Strike Anywhere website has been updated!

From http://Strikeanywhere.org/

Strike Anywhere 2012... an update doesn't say too much of anything...
 

Well... there hasn't been much news in Strike Anywhere world recently... partly due to this website being busted and un-updateable for over a year... and partly due to the fact that we haven't been up to much of anything. To answer a big question... yes... Strike Anywhere is still together... not broken up... not even on hiatus or any of that... just not nearly as busy as we used to be. That being said, we do have some plans for 2012... though, at this point, the details are vague at best.... we will be doing a couple tours... right now looking like the overseas/south of the equator variety of touring. We will also have some "new" music released this year via Bridge 9 records. It wont necessarily be new songs... but it also wont be the typical Strike Anywhere that most of you are used to hearing... it will honestly probably only be of interest to very small fraction of our fans... but, shit, we dig it... so hopefully someone else will dig it too. Since you've heard from us last we've been keeping busy in our own ways... Thomas moved back to the west coast, near the beach... Smith moved south to the beach.. (lucky fuckers)... Smith has also been keeping busy playing with Senses Fail... they're recording a new record and doing the Warped Tour thing this summer... Garth and Mark keep hacking away at the Richmond restaurant industry... and I'm up in DC and occasionally play shows with Pygmy Lush. Some actual news and updates should be coming your way soon... but for now, just wanted to put up a little something on this old website... let you know that we're still alive... -Eric (Strike Anywhere)
Well, this leaves a lot of unanswered questions. This new music for instance, I seem to remember Strike Anywhere mentioning something about an acoustic album a couple years ago, maybe that is this. I hope they do another US tour, it is to the point now where I would drive somewhere to see them, the last, first, and only time I have seen Strike Anywhere was in 2008.

Chorus Of One: Now with 50% more hard drive, FREE!

I recently came across another computer, it was a much newer computer than anything else I have, despite having only 256mb or RAM it was actually designed to run XP and had a 1.something gigahertz processor, but the motherboard was fried. It did have a nice "80" gigabyte hard drive, though. I used it to replace the 40gb that was being used in the server, which was nearly full. the new drive, despite being labeled as 80 Gigabytes was only 70, but despite that, the drive still has just under 50% free space. Also I reconfigured the drives so they are on separate controllers, so it should be slightly faster now. Windows can run independently of the server files and vice-versa. I don't know if it's related or not but the computer boots twice as fast now.
That is all.

I Figured it out (Facebook shit)

Joining Facebook is like being assimilated by the Borg. Nobody wants it to happen but once it does you forget about that and don't seem to care anymore because you are constantly surrounded by other people's thoughts and they by yours. That makes you feel less insignificant and so you like it, despite the negative things that happen when you join. You forget everything about your life before you were assimilated and do as the collective asks. It's not all that bad, but you still wish you had not joined.
WE ARE THE FACEBOOK. YOUR BIOLOGICAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL DISTINCTIVENESS WILL BE ADDED TO OUR OWN. YOU WILL BE ASSIMILATED, RESISTANCE IS FUTILE.

No more downloads section

Did anyone actually use it anyway? there was hardly anything there in the first place and the interface has not been updated since Floyd's Website 2.x.I have replaced it with  "Links" with links to other websites I go to. It is way better and will continue to get better as things get more awesome! This, along with the design changes brings the website to version 3.51.

Why didn't someone tell me my website has been off-line for a week?

Last Sunday night, the power went out for several hours. When it came back on the server came on just like it is supposed to, but the IP address update client does not start until I log into the computer. The reason I didn't find out about it until today is that I was at school and could not get on my website from there, it has worked fine on my LAN all week so I didn't know anything about it.

 

So to all you facebook people who may have tried to come here, I apologize. It does this all the time, you will get used to it.

 

Also, I redesigned the radio show page. It is just the beginning of an effort to update and "modernize" the entire website, it will still look like a cheap 90s website, I like it like that, but it will be much easier to use!

I just joined facebook. BUT FEAR NOT, THIS WEBSITE WILL NEVER DIE.

Also, since this is a new year, I decided to change some of the system colors to what you see now. This will be the last change ever, I promise. Well, no I don't.
