Due to persistent and chronic hacking of this site by an unknown entity that hates bacon and all things Rad, The Worley Gig will be moving to a new host server some time this weekend. We would like to take this opportunity to thank Ian Koss at the wonderful UBI Korp for his years of devoted, cheerful service and unfailing, proactive willingness to troubleshoot a problem that, unfortunately, proved to be just too confounding to warrant much more of anybody’s time trying to solve. The ‘Gig may experience a few hours of downtime while the move takes place, so please come back later if we are found to be temporarily unavailable.
Today, we celebrate Worleygig Dot Com’ssixth year of music and mayhem on the web! Thanks to all of you, our traffic has increased five hundred percent over this time last year, and The ‘Gig is currently among the Top Ten Most Popular Art Blogs on The Web! Please help me kick off year six by leaving some comments on my various posts around the page, and enjoying a slice of virtual cake! Cheers!
