The Courier blogs, too

Well, sorta. Look here. John Kamin is working hard to teach the old-media dog new-media tricks. The drag is that no one seems to be attending the party. I've yet to see a comment there, and blogging without comments can make you go blind. Help John out. Remember, your comments can be about anything.

Some accountability might lead to having the "local music" blog contain discussion of, you know, local music.

    You know, Mr. Lyman is absolutely right. I will do more to get some ink on our great local bands. I don't always have time to see them, but I do know about enough great local talent to write about them. So, I will try to follow Mr. Lyman's sage advice, as I think he's absolutely right.

    How about some "local music" on this local music blog. There are some great bands here; Big Daddy and the Dynamite recently did the Rock 'n' Roll Marathon in Phoenix; The High Rollers, who recently opened for Dick Dale, Cazz Jazz ... Some of the best ecletic Jazz Iv heard anywhere, ... there's more. So how come no Ink on these great bands?

I encourage you to share your own views and experience with me and other readers. How you do that matters, and I'm committed to maintaining a place where readers and commenters can feel safe from adolescent BS. So here's the deal:

There are two kinds of anonymous comments: those by people who have a genuine fear of revenge from the dark side, and those from darksiders just hiding to avoid accountability. You may post comments anonymously, but I reserve the right to treat anonymous comments as found items that belong to me and do with them as I see fit.

If, on the other hand, you're willing to stand by your convictions and post under your own name or a regular handle, your comments belong to you, and I'll edit them only on egregious violations of respect for others.

If this doesn't work for you, I'm sure you'll be happier somewhere else.
