Dear god, the life I sacrificed for IT

As is already obvious, we have a new website, and it is truly "dynamic" - a word that makes web developers drool.  It basically means that everyone in the band can take part in creating content, as opposed to leaving website things to just me and James.

To get here, however, has not been a short road.  I've been having to go through code like this:

<?php function eat_my_shorts($my_eyes_are_going_funny, $kill_me_now) { strlen($pants, $pants, $pants ;}

Which eats away your soul over many hours spent hunched over the screen, occasionally rising to avoid wetting the chair.

I hope that in the end it will be worth it.  In the coming months we'll be able to take donations over this very website, sell products and more.  It lets us keep in touch with fans (which reminds me that you should sign up to our mailing list, so we can tell you when we have new songs online).  One day, we may even have something of a business to speak of, so we can make some sort of living from this music thingy.

The sky is the limit!
