ABOUT FUCKING TIME!!!
Posted by: Admin on Saturday, January 19, 2008 - 12:05 AM
General news Yes, I'd say it's about frikkin' time we got off our asses and finally did something on this site. We've had changes - staff changes, location changes, cash flow changes, spiritual changes, etc. At the moment, we have a 3.5 person staff (myself, Plankton, Ladyfirebug, and a handful of people who say they're interested and haven't stepped up to the plate yet.) We also have a big presence on the ever so tiny but cool as hell pirate radio station WDDR worldwide. Yoalpster is a new music coordinator and sometimes microphone spitter. Props go out Eric Blair & co. for their open arms acceptance of us. Hopefully later on down the road we'll have podcasts of both a LFB show and WDDR's broadcast available for download, so STAY TUNED.

There is NO good place if you're underage to go see a show now! The Static Bar (18+) went under and headed to KC from Topeka, the Groundworks Coffee house in Leavenworth known for their all ages shows is now closed. They said they would be doing "Groundworks" nights at different venues for all ages shows, and had a failed attempt to relocate into JOCO, so i doubt we well see them again for a while.

As far as bands go, SYN (synesthetic) from NE Kansas have disbanded. Wade & Dane Woodring are doing a techno side project called Lucid Bunny, and Wade (who bought the Yoalpster Ranch from yours truly) has made Masada Recording Studio located in Oskaloosa. Lots cheaper and better sounding than the normal Lawrence studios - check them out if you can.

It looks like a good year for shows, but like I said before, venues suck. The 98% are 18+ and all in Missouri are 21+, so I wouldn't be surprised if some of these kids start doing free shows in parks and in VFW halls around the area. (hinthint, you little fucks) It should be an interesting year, and this mag is knocked out it's cobwebs off its junk and is ready to be as cool as it ever was, even though we're probably as old as some of the readers (15 this year...)

We're back, kiddies, so get used to it.
