I've Migrated to Facebook

Sorry for the lengthy absence.

I have decided to put this page into cold storage, as many of the original features of the page (especially the RSS feeds) have gone dead over the past few years, and others have become obsolete.

Please visit my Facebook page; I will no longer be doing a daily "Music News You Can Use" as it was taking too much time, but there is still plenty of  music-related content over there!

Aloha!

~Craig on Saddle Hill

Soon Come!

Should be back on the air Monday, July 27th!

On Hiatus!

Back soon.....
