Don't Lose Your Domain Name!

by Marc Gunn

That always shocks me. I was composing the shownotes for my Irish & Celtic Music Podcast, checking URLs. One of the bands in this week's show had a domain that was no longer functional. It expired two months ago and was about to be released to the public. Fortunately, I knew her and gave her a call.

She had no idea the domain was ending, but since her band broke up she didn't think it worthwhile to keep the domain running. As she said, "Well, I have the CDBaby page, and a lot of folks are using myspace URLs."

Tis true, tis true. But for everyone who lived through the heyday of MP3.com, you should know never to trust an external domain for your promotion. Myspace.com is a great site. But will it be around in five years? Who knows?

Personally, I put no faith in that. I promote TheBards.net, MarcGunn.com, BardsCrier.com or whatever website I'm promoting. Myspace, SoundClick, even CDBaby are temporary. They could poof disappear any day, God forbid.

Fortunately, you can get domains these days for just $8.99 through sites like GoDaddy.com. Or if you're in my friend's predicament, you can Backorder the site for just $18.99, which means, once the domain becomes free from its current owner, you can re-take control of its ownership if you lost it.

The important thing is don't let this happen to you. You never know when you will need that URL once again. So register your URL and keep it forever.

Toads Place - Closed until further notice

Toad's Place is currently closed.

A posting on the inside and outside walls of the live music club at 140 Virginia St. on the Canal Walk reads that due to "serious default in rental payment and other obligations . . . " the venue was closed today.

The notice comes from Kiniry and Co., the managing agents for Fulton Hill Properties, landlord for the building.

According to the posting, a notice of default was given to manager Charles Joyner on Feb. 20 and the "landlord exercises its right to re-enter the premises and remove Tenant from possession."

No shows are scheduled at the venue until Friday, when rapper Busta Rhymes is supposed to perform.

2 bands needed to fill 2 spots in RVA

I am looking for 2 bands to fill a spot on Friday April 3rd, at a Poe's sized club in Mechanicsville.
The first and third spots are open, money will not be very much most likely, will find out more on that later,
but exposure is always worth more than a few dollars when you are gathering a following.
If your band is free and is interested, or if you know of a band that would be interested, please contact me either at http://www.myspace.com/musicrva or http://profile.to/sojournstarmusic/ ,
and let me know. 2 bands will be chosen, so respond asap.

I am not looking for anything super hard core, mostly alternative, rock and roll, rockabilly, folksy, or any variation
of that in the bands.

Save loads of money by shopping direct through merchants

I just noticed the other day that we have a Direct Buy here in Richmond. Actually there are 5 locations in Richmond, Chesapeake, Roanoke, Woodbridge, and
Chantilly
and I wondered if anyone has checked it out yet. I have heard good things about it and that they have really good deals on all kinds of furniture.

If any of you have ever shopped at Direct Buy Chantilly, or any other one of the stores in the area, please leave some comments and tell us what you think!
