Proof that no matter where you grew up, this music truly shaped who we are today. Totally blows me away. I never thought that this would get the full orchestral treatment when I was a kid, but dammit, I really hoped it would happen…

If you’ve been reading the comments on this site, you’ll have unfortunately seen all of the comment spam we’ve had to deal with lately. I’m working on it. It’s getting very tiresome having to delete “fake” members, and comments because of the spam, but I do it everyday because this site is better than that.

I’ve been looking into options that will curtail this activity on the site, as it’s been killing the opportunity to conduct meaningful discussion around huge obtrusive comments peddling online pharmacies and porn. (It still really makes me laugh when I see all Russian text, with a link about boobies though, I’m not gonna lie…)

I’m always open to ideas, so if you’d like to chime in, leave a comment. Just make sure your not talking about boobies or drugs, or it’ll get deleted.
