Tech Glitches – Has anyone noticed that when you add comments, that the text on the right hand margin disappears? I’m using IE.

This was a major annoyance to me as we developed the site. It doesn’t happen for everyone, and we’ve yet to find a full solution, but hitting Preview, if you fear you’ve typed something horribly offensive as the last few letters run off the Comments screen, will allow you to see how you’re doing while not yet sending off your comment. We’ll revisit the search for fixing up this issue in the template for all.
A belated congrats and best wishes to HVB for the official opening of his new studio! Sorry I couldn’t have gotten down there tonight. I hope to get some time to see you this week. Feel free to let the Halls of Rock know of your new venture and any highlights from tonight’s shindig!
BTW, the new Costello is now streaming here: http://losthighwayrecords.com/artist/releases/release.aspx?pid=1749&aid=175
It’s sounding a little better for me now, though I’m still not sure if I need to own it. Also, it looks like the standard critical line is a lazy “return to form,” which I think they use for every other new album of his.
URGENT RTH BRAIN TRUST REQUEST:
Hey, guys — anybody know where I might find an in-depth look at how James Brown recorded his music from around 1966-72 — you know, the crucial funk years?
Let me know as soon as you can… and thanks!
