Slabtown.net Site Updates Archive - June 2003

June 27, 2003 - Catching up, pt. 1
I've fallen a bit behind with updates and the items are really stacking up around my house... but I did get three easy ones out of the way:
Welcome To The Monkey House Australian CD/DVD release - This is just the full Monkey House album from Australia, which contains 4 music videos on a second DVD included with it.
Welcome To The Monkey House vinyl release - Just what it sounds like: the Monkey House album on vinyl
"5 New Tracks" Promo - This item is pretty cool, as it is a very early promo CD of 5 Monkey House tracks. Included with it is the alternate version of The Last High, which was on the Spin compilation, and an alternate version of I Am Sound... though not much is different on it. Also, all the track names are their older style and not the full names the songs were on the final album.

I have 3 compilations and the Welcome To The COllege EP still to put up on the site, so hopefully more will be up in a bit. If you haven't heard yet, the ...College EP is really cool, as it has Sometime Sunday on it, which is the final song from the bands 1994 demo tape to not have been released before this. Also, I have a dozen print articles to put up. Sorry folks, I'm usually not so far behind, but it's been too damn hot lately so I hate being in my office.

June 25, 2003 - Better Translation for Peter's Interview
Thanks to the gorgeous Claire Storrow, I got a much better translation of the interview with Peter that I posted on June 11th. This is a very cool interview, as Peter talks about the release of the Black Album, his plans for solo projects and the I Am Sound/Free controversy.

June 12, 2003 - We Used To Be Friends tabs added
Added rough tabs for We Used To Be Friends. Will fill them out more fully later.

I know that I haven't updated as much lately, but hopefully I can catch up later this week when I get fired from work. Well, laid off (and I have known about it for 6 weeks), but the point is I will have a lot of free time to catch up. Current count: 6 articles, 11 reviews, 4 interviews and probably 2 dozen various pieces of info to add to pages.

June 11, 2003 - Interview w/Peter
Added an interview that Peter did earlier this month. The article is in French, and I did put it in a translation thing, but it is still a bit rough.

June 8, 2003 - More updates
Added pages for Loose and corrected some more pages that had the wrong names for Monkey House tracks.

June 8, 2003
I'm taking the lazy route with the setlists from the latest tour, and I won't be mentioning when I add them. So if curiosity gets to you enough to wonder if I have added a certain setlist, go to the menu pages for the May 2003 and June 2003 concerts, which say what shows have setlists.

June 7, 2003
Got the gigography all caught up to date, including making pages for each of the shows on the current tour (even those still coming up). Haven't added setlists yet, but probably will start piecing them together next week.

June 5, 2003
Added two show reviews from the Brixton show.
The Guardian
The Independent

Also updated all the song pages to have the right song names and the Japanese release of Monkey House.
