Message from the Management: Xmas/Holiday Not the End of the World After All edition

It looks like it's been a while since I last posted here.

* It was one year and five days ago that DrEyescope joined the Closet as a contributor marking his first anniversary here. I would like to thank DrEyescope for all of the great music that he has shared during his time here so far from Lukas Foss to Fat and for turning me on to some stuff that was once new to my ears. May this blog be blessed with his generosity for some time to come.
To be honest, DrEyescope is the main reason why this blog is still active. A little over a year ago, I had given some thought to shutting this blog down or at least no longer updating the blog. I believed that the time for this blog had come. At the time, I was still in school and held a full-time job where I attempted to start my career. There was very little free time to devote to the blog. Along came DrEyescope to give this place some new life and energy.

* I am trying to find time to re-up a bunch of dead links. Sadly dead links are abundant here as of late. Hopefully, there will be some of those links active again sometime during the next few days. Keep watching the "Updates about Old Posts" page.

* I may have a new post (or two) sometime before Christmas. I hope everyone has recovered from the non-event of the end of the world.

Merry Holidays and/or Happy Christmas!

      Thank YOU, alfred venison, for being as conscientious as you are about responding to the posts you like.It makes it possible to think "I bet a.v. will dig this one" when posting something new.
      Best of the season to you too!

    Hello,

    For me websites now for file storage (rapidshare etc)is not a good chance to re-up(after only few weeks file uploaded expiring and problems with autorities).
    Why not create a comunity of torrents?
    Best Wishes from a first time follower.

    Bye Riccardo

      I agree that the current situation is less than good.
      We here in the Closet are open to suggestions as to how to adapt to the changes so that they don't destroy us altogether.

      Thanks for the suggestion.
