has it that original member John Densmore will not be part of the new
line-up due to ill-health. A tour and studio album are planned.

Questionnaires
& Results
This
section features a music-related questionnaire that will eventually
be updated about every 2 months. Results will be compiled and posted
here! The next questionnaire should be posted
here in early December! If you
have any question ideas let us know.
Unsigned Bands We have many features that include lesser known bands. Local Extra is a column full of news including tour dates, release dates, etc. We have run across some really great bands in the last few years that we probably wouldn't have heard of.
Shining Stars features the bios and background information on these bands. Not all of these bands are unsigned, but that's kind of hard to keep up with these days. The one thing that they do have in common is that most of them are lesser known bands that deserve to be noticed.
