New Resource - The Tin Whisker

If you like forums, a new one can be found at The Tin Whisker, run by Daniel Deckelman aka The Rats, Rocket 69, Route 1 South) and you should check it out.

Our senior writer Cindy Johnson is "moonlighting" there. Here is an insert from one of her posts about the band BoneAnchor:

Boneanchor played to a full house at the Triple this weekend. It was a return engagement and the Triple was standing room only on both occasions. This three piece band has a loyal and consistent fan base. I have seen Boneanchor perform many times but have never felt comfortable trying to articulate their style and allure. I could never put my finger on the right words, but here goes. The band members, Morgan, Tom and Wrenn form such a blend of talent it’s hard to place them in any single type of genre. They perform originals and covers spanning several decades with such originality and flare it will make you never hear that cover the same way again.

To read more of this article and check out the forum, go to BoneAnchor
