If I was compiling my top 100 albums of the 90s, it would be top 10 material. But I'm not. :-) In other news, I think I may leave this blog up and just post to it when I feel the need rather than tear it down. --c. Confessions is one of the best rock albums of the 90s, FACT.

Hope you get inspired big time for the next album. Graham Clive,

I've had a couple of months where I just couldn't bring myself to bother with it, but it's passed as it always does. I'm focussing on the covers band at first, as there is a gig to rehearse for, but alongside that I intend to get some more album work done soon. Provisional title: "Love & Painkillers". --c. @Andy_D Well, you’ll be pleased to know that I am once again feeling inspired to pick up a guitar.

Good luck chum! End it then get the second album finished! ;)

But Tweets only make sense in realtime. After the present they rapidly become just a huge database of disconnected ramblings. When's the last time you intentionally went and read a Tweet one of your contacts posted two weeks ago? My blog reader's "people" section is an increasingly empty place. I check roughly once a day and am often mildly dismayed to find no new posts, again. I'm not suggesting you keep blogging just to give Ade something to read, but I do think there's value in the blog that's worth considering - each post a standalone nugget of archived goodness. Only certain things can be conveyed in 140 characters. Personally I'm going to persevere, even if I only manage four proper written posts per year, and even I'm the only person who reads them. Anyway, as you were... *yells*

Too many other things in life occuppy my timeline now and as you say,Twitter is taken up the slack. I couldn't even be bothered to have a static site again. So came up with the idea of having just one page with all my "crap" and social stalking networks all in one spot. Looking forward to some rock \m/ ;) Dan Even though I’d only been blogging since 2006,I to gave up last month.
