Quickest. Update. Ever. HatchetGear.com dropped a bomb of new stuff today... new Esham shirts, girlie shirts, jersey/short combos, different color Joker Card shirts... the works. So check it out, and be amazed! Also, TwiztidShop.com has up their Homebound CD/Shirt package deal, so check that out as well. Lot of work for me tomorrow morning, but I look forward to it.
Support your local artists. If you're downloading a certain Rainy Black CD from the Lotus of the Dark, remember that piracy takes money out of the pockets of everyone involved. So be a sport and buy the CD if you like it. Seacrest, out!

It's almost 8:30 AM, and I haven't slept yet, so I figured I'd update. The main news is that the Traders List has been cleaned out, evened out, aired out, and is... now out. I kept a few questionable links in there (mostly ones that were outdated in my mind), but all broken links, as well as emails that were broken/did not email me back are gone. I think I wiped a little over 100 people, so... oh well. It's better to have a smaller, tighter list. And mind you, the List was Chris's only job, yet it got out of control. Good guy, that Chris was...

Ah yes, another weekend, and another few days for me to come up here with all my goodness for everyone. First of all, I don't think this has been reported elsewhere, but it was announced that Zug Izland will be on radio show "Motor City Riffs" on April 18th, I can only assume with some new tracks for everyone to hear. So dial up 101.1 FM in the D, or www.wrif.com elsewhere on 4-18-04 to hear that. Props to me for hearing that on the radio.

Ah updates, how I miss you. Not much has been going on, so there really hasn't been a need to update much. Again, we have the little "calm before the storm" that is the Lotus tour, then the Gathering not too far in the future. Alas, it's not like I haven't been doing anything! I pretty much updated all of the new merch, I think... as well as continually adding traders to The List. I think I may still have a few to go, so if you aren't up, hang tight!

Hello there. Hopefully you are seeing this, as I have been told that some people cannot see the new updates and such. I'll assume you can, because you're obviously here reading this...

Ahoy! I'm just comin in to let you know that our move to the new server is just about complete. There is still a small tweak I need to fix (Now each page works as www.pt.com/hoodiesicp.html and such... try it out! I just need to get them to work from the links on the left), but I am sure that will get done tonight. Also, I need to go through and check every link and picture because I know there are some that didn't survive the big move. But past that, it's about time for PT to start rolling once again with new merch.. like the new Lotus stuff that is on Hatchetgear.com.

Well, my change of servers isn't going as fast as I had hoped, so I guess I might as well update. Everything is moved, if you care... I am just waiting for the domain to transfer, which will mean downtime. But, as soon as that happens, smooth sailing.
Now it's time for random email answering/pimping. First up is bidlot.com. It appears to be an ebay alternative, so if you hate The Bay, that is your chance to try something else new.
In "Where Are They Now" news, former PT'er , The Lyrical Assassin is coming into hard times, so he is selling his stuff. Check his page and see if there is anything you want to buy. it may not be updated, but he can tell you what he has left. Click the little AJB on the left of his page for his email addy.
There is also a new (well, new when I got the email) Internet Radio deal called Toxic Radio. They have music, live interviews, etc etc... they asked us if we wanted a slot, but I am going to have to decline that, as my time is real limited online. But hey, if you like the computer radio deals, check them out.
Also, because it got buried.. and not reported on other pages ::ahem:: don't forget that if you want to help Sportsrock out with some new merch, send pictures of your painted face to Jim, as long as yoru scan is at least 200lpi. And while you're emailing him, say that you love the NBA Hatchetman merch, and that I'm still waiting for my free shirt!
Wooooo, I think that is it. Time to proofread all of this, hopefully correctly, and get to bed. I hope all is well with everyone out there, and I am out.
In Merch News, you have most likely seen the new Lotus and Colton Ya Dead Grundy shirts on HatchetGear. Boom, and those are already up on PT. I also noticed that there are Black Rain Tour posters out there, so we shall see if PSY starts to pump those out, of if they will strictly be a "Go to your venue and steal it" kinda deal.
In some PT News, I'm still cleaning out the Traders List. I'm in a little dilemma on what to do, because I have a few catagories of people that I think should be taken off, but I don't want to take anyone off that doesn't want to go. However, I think it may be better to axe everyone in question, and if they want back on, I can do that. That may be my project tonight.
Also, very late, but I would like to give props to SCM, TManiac, and crew at RJ.com for their new layout, features, and such. Good stuff. There are a few other things I am looking at in my mailbox I need to talk about, but I will probably do that later tonight/early tomorrow, so check back! Until then, I shall see you later.
In local news, you rememebr how we have a nice little relationshop here with local artist White Boy Ric. Anyways, there has been lots of big news over on his end, so if you are a fan, perhaps you need to head over to his site. More band members leaving, Ric moving out of the D, the big show upcoming with Marz, nominations for the Detroit Music Awards, and more. So get on over there.
Not much else to report on. I'm sure I am forgetting something or someone.. or someone's ebay auctions to pimp or something. If so, I apologize. I don't come online, I get behind in emails and updates, and things like thatare outdated before I know it. Anyways, take care, and I shall see everyone later on.
The big update I have is regarding new merch. So new... it's not even made yet, and you can help. If you have pictures of your painted faces, and want to the chance to be on some merch, email those pictures to Jim. Guys and girls; ICP, Twiztid, Blaze, Lotus, any type of face paint. Pictures should be at least 200 lpi... whatever that means. I'm not a computer geek. Just make it a good sized, clean scan, and it should work.
Speaking of new merch, ICP and 2Tuff Tony have been wearing new jersey severy week on TNA. This week they had Camo Hatchetman football jerseys, which I think are real sweet. We shall see if any of these ever get sold. And speaking of new merch, I am sorry for not being up to date on everything off HatchetGear. I am just getting used to my new schedule, and with the Traders List Cleaning and the new server, I got a little lagged. Things should start picking up for me though, so all should be good here very soon. And I haven't forgotten about the New Traders, so if you emailed in, you'll be up soon.
I believe that is all for me, really. I shall return shortly with much more updates, I promise!
In other spring cleaning news, I wiped about 100 Traders from the list. Everyone who had a broken link and a non-working email I took off right away. Everyone else with a broken or out-dated link I emailed. Some have gotten back to me; other haven't. The ones who don't by say, the end of the month, I will probably take off, depending on the situation. Plus we have about a dozen new people I need to add. AND we have a new graphic for anyone to use on their own page to replace the old one.
Pretty snazzy. Props to Kazket for making that, and reminding me how old the other one was.
See, things are running as smooth as can be. It helps when you actually try to do stuff around here. Go figure. Anyways, that is it for me. I am gone.
I updated the LOTMs, although one is about to end, so hurry up! Also, I know I have a lot of people to add to The List, but I am hoping the server move, plus me cleaning the List will happen before I add you guys. So please be patient.
If you are in the Detroit area, and you're looking for something to do this weekend, you can always hit up the White Boy Ric show in Waterford, I believe, on Saturday night. Check his site for more info on that, his many upcoming shows, his upcoming projects with Marz and Myzery, news on his new guitar player who used to be a loyal PTer, the new message board, and much much more.
There really isn't much to talk about, though. Gathering tickets went on sale... Lotus tour dates are floating around... Both mean busy times here at PT, but I think I/we can more than handle it, even with my new schedule. So, with that, I am out.
