What's Up With Phatphiles?!

I'm getting asked this a lot - what's up with phatphiles.org? Well, I suppose it's time to announce it: phatphiles is no more. The cost of running phatphiles was growing. Phish would not allow us - in any way shape or form - to accept money, even donations, or display ads, in conjunction with offering downloads. As a result, bringing you the best music simply became an impossiblity. sethadam1.com will live on, but I don't know in what capacity. I may simplify the hell out of the thing, maybe make it a basic user-maintained link farm or a picture gallery, or I may go back to the old style of ft 1.0: offering one weekly featured song. What would you like to see? Use the comments to share.

Breathing New Life into a Dying Blog

I'm about to release version 3 of Flip, and the ftweblog, as the development ground, gets its periodic upgrade as a response. Generally, this means I start using it again, which is exciting. If you care to pipe in on any conversation, by all means, register for an account and jump in!

Alive again.

Flip 3.0 is coming along, and I'm preparing to release the last beta before the release candidate. I intend to complete it this weekend. That's all. Is it bad that I just wanted to post this so the weblog wasn't dead.

Well, my e-mail came yesterday informing me that I got my tickets for the 28th, 29th, and 30th, but I got shut out for NYE. How well did you fare?

Fans Support Mike

vaphan writes "FREE MIKE:: this whole mike thing is crazy. EVEN WHEN i disregard the reported facts that clearly state that (i) the "victim in question's family" goes on record to say that it was a misunderstanding; (ii) this family goes on the record to say they specifically did not want this to become a media frenzy; and (iii) that there was no evidence of wrongdoing whatsoever (other than being stupid). and EVEN WHEN i disregard my general disdain for the sorry society we live in that is willing to believe everything (even a war!) that the consolidated right-wing media monsters that are now called the "press". and EVEN WHEN i disregard the past 12 months of working with mike day-to-day on his solo record (which happens to come out on tuesday!) where he showed an extremely rare passion for his art, that manifested itself through constant phone calls and daily emails with different creations including his music, his writings, his ideas, his movies and yes....his pictures! EVEN WHEN i disregard all of THAT, there's one compelling reason that brings me immediately to his defense: mike gordon's our artist and he's our friend! helloooooo "innocent until proven guilty?" don't you...
