It appears I'm now a 'Member' instead of a 'New Member' . I also seem to have 'Money'. Any advice on what to do with these new designations? All advice is appreciated.

Tell me a writer from 2000 - present from your neck of the woods I wouldn't know unless you told me.

One of my favorite bits of music knowledge is that Lynryd Skynyrd is from Jacksonville, Florida, not Alabama. This song was written in response to Neil Young's 'Southern Man'. In reality their's no conflict between the songwriters, but they are both artists expressing valid points of their...

Ha! Thanks for the advice. I'm committed to ride this train for a little bit. How's the Left Coast treating you?
