I don't know if many of you are familiar with last.fm (or if there is a group already) but I took the liberty of opening one for members of frankblack.net
last.fh is a site where you download a plugin into your media player and create and account with them and they chart all your music for you.
If anyone is interested in joining it go to http://www.last.fm/ and register,download the plugin then search for the group "frankblack.net" and it's open to everyone so you should be straight in. If we get 15 members, it's holds a chart every week.
If there are any problems or anything just tell me know here and close it or whatever.

Seems like the podcast made the charts this week.
“Not since Orson Welles had one man so many fingers in so many pies, and been the chef as well. And then looked like he went and ate them all. The guy was out of control.” |

I think this underlines our faith and confidence in him, especially during such a troubled period of his life. Congratulations PixieSteve!

"The election in Frank Black Forum has not succeeded in appointing a new leader. The original leader has been restored."
So PixieSteve is still leader.

It's not exactly shock of the century, is it? :D
Maybe the surprise is in which FB tracks are the most played. Maybe.

After glancing at this topic a number of times, I finally went and checked out the site last night. I must say I'm very impressed, and have joined the group as well as telling anyone who will listen to me about the site.

Yeah, the group radio seems pretty decent. I'm already enjoying some new stuff (well, new to me anyway). How exactly does it work? Does it just play random stuff from group members profiles?

Sounds like a cool site. Have any of you guys tried pandora.com yet? I have to say I could waste an entire weekend on that site. Very cool. Basically you can create radio stations based on your taste in music (by artist or song) and it will play tracks with similar themes, harmonies, instrumentation, etc interspersed with your favourite tracks. If you haven't checked it out I definitely recommend it. Great way to get into new bands...
