Stars of the Loophole

Ok a new blog featuring only free non-label artist releases that are worth checking out. My new blog, some good music, and a blog that should hopefully grow.

Hey all!

Been awhile since I posted but I've been collecting a lot of great links on my voyages through the blogosphere and wanted others to know these great blogs. Wish I had loads more time to go through the chatbox but it was tough enough finding 2 hrs for these posts so I hope you enjoy!

Michael Jackson's Death

Don't know if the media has moved on to other topics yet but hope you are holding up to M.J. death frenzy. I suppose we will see a lot more in the next couple of weeks. Hang in there.

Unlike Anna Nicole, Michael actually did have a great musical career from the 70's into the 80's so we will try to remember what's left, the music.

Funeral Time

Well I spent an hour and a half and cleaned out about 150 dead blogs. That included any blogs that were originally public but had turned private. I did this with a link check program so there may be blogs on my list that are still here and still online but may have dead download links at that particular blog. Feel free to add any comments to those posts with blogs that are effectively dead.

28 New Blogs

Got a burr in my bonnet, found, and upped a lot of new blogs. Some older prog and electronic stuff that I found via google searches and most weren't here. Enjoy and hit me in that chatbox if you find new blogs that are not here. I'll try to do my winter cleaning and clear out dead blogs when I have a good extra hour.

A Happy Holidays to Everyone. I'll see you next year and we'll find some more blogs again together.

I Updated, Now You Vote!

Well I got my mail in ballot in last week, got my update in for this blog, and found the time to pin Obama pins on all the squirrels in my neighborhood to help spread the word. Please take the time to vote even if there is a line. Countries and parties don't change themselves without some pushing or pulling a little lever. Glad the election season is now over, hope we won't be dealing with recounts and chads for the next week......PEACE!!

Finally....an update

Sorry. Life has been brutal lately so it was work just finding time to update. Enjoy.

Keep those links coming to the chatbox on the right and I'll add them next time.

PEACE!!

Watchmen Live Comic

Amazingly well done job of adapting the first Watchmen comic and using the original art, adding some movement, and narration. A living breathing comic, that's free. Get it free with Itunes account here. Hopefully the upcoming movie won't suck... if they make more of these I may stick with them even at $1.99-3.99 a pop.

Updated

Well I got 22 new blogs added through my searching today. Easing back into the blogging routine (never enough time you know). As always throw any new blogs in chatbox and link me back if you please. I'll see you all next week!

Update

Sorry took a week off and didn't bother to post anything about it. I'll try to check in and put together an update next week.

19

Only had a few days off this week so a rather small update. Still 19 new blogs to add to the archive, so not too shabby.

Update

Added Fifty more blogs including a ton of Reggae Blogs I was sitting on. I'll catch you all next week for more to update. Throw any new or underlooked blogs in chat. Peace!!

Sixty!!

Got 60 new blogs for you this week. Lotta Goth blogs, Hard Rock/ Hair Metal, and of course those blogs you've thrown in the chat window.

RYM is doing a subscription drive the next 2 weeks. If you love it as much as I do please donate what you can ( I donated $15 myself).
