Hi, music lovers! You may have noticed a lack of updates in the sidebar of late. This is because, in the process of updating the Blogger platform, they have lost some functionality on the back end. They have promised to fix it, but in case they don't, this blog may have to undergo a serious redesign and lose the sidebars. We'll see what happens but, meanwhile, stay toasty my friends (^_^)
