Welcome, guyinsf. Just remember that if you go into the "Not Necessarily New Wave" forums, to take everything said there with a grain of salt. [:)]

Welcome. Nice to meet you. Don't miss Mike's song of the week. The link is on the New Wave Outpost home page. He posts great obscure stuff.

I'm looking forward to reading more of your posts.

Now if the DC++ the wave hub will ever come back online. It been over a week since it went dark and soulseek does not cut it when it crashed every 20 minutes.

Since you live in SF, be Sure to check out New Wave City, the first Saturday of the month. They do a tremendous job of recreating the Wave Club scene of the eighties. Excellent taste in music with a good clientele. Do not miss it.
