Anyone knows what is going on with that site? The news section hasn't been updated since May 6th. There's no new artists interviews on either. The last one was with Toyah in April. [?]

I don't want to believe the site is dead. That will be a terrible loss for all the '80s music lovers. But you can't dismiss the facts, can you? Unfortunately. :-(

Why not? This board is full of people who dismiss the facts. You'll have plenty of company.

Richard is now running the official Erasure page/forum so I guess that is taking a lot of his time

I'll find out what happened to this for my lil darlings here;
the site (and the brilliant hard bound book which accompanies it) was created in the UK by a hard core Toyah fan;
I think you'll be seeing more on this site, but there's plenty of Toy-activity in the UK at the moment,so don't be too surprised by what you see next...
and if ya don't like it, don't look at it...nobody's forcing you..

Awww...didn't know about that, really. So that explains recent site inactivity a lot. Thanx! :-)

The book is excellent, toyah matey! Bought it as soon as it came out. One of my favourite '80s books ever! :-)

I hope Richard who runs the site is just on a short 'sabbatical'. I featured Richard & the site in 'IS THAT THE 12" MIX' . While I don't visit the site as much as I used to, his regular newsletter was fantastic and helped keep thousands of us up-to-date with just about everything musically 80s !

IS THAT THE TWELVE INCH MIX ? Out late 2010 www.robgrillo.co.uk

Did it bollocks! It concentrated on a small section of 80s music so the idea that it kept up to date with just about everything musically 80s is absurd.
