From Mike over at Mike's Forums:
I cannot believe I am writing this again.... But it seems this idiot Anthony Mendez is out of jail and on the loose again. THIS IS NOT A JOKE!! After the ordeal back in 2003, I figured he would've learned his lesson - but apparently not... This is an email that was just passed onto me from a recent encounter: (edited to protect the person who reported the incident)
Please read the article for full details. If you encounter this individual, please contact your local authorities immediately.
From this article, an interesting quote regarding Bonnaroo from Umphrey's McGee's Joel Cummins:
"It's really important to have that progressive element and bring new things in. I'd love to see something like Dream Theater here that doesn't get as much exposure in the U.S., but is huge in Europe. You need to have that freshness. For fans to say 'I've discovered something new that I've never expect to see at Bonnaroo,' I think that's one of the things that bring people back here. It's the ones you don't know you're going to see that blow you away and keep you coming back."
One of the avenues I am exploring is hosting blogs at dreamt.org. People would be able to sign up and use Tucows' Blogware software. These blogs would be hosted at something like skadz.dreamt.org (for example). Is this of any interest to anyone? Leave some comments on your thoughts. Thanks!
