So which one is Mr. Hyde then  , sorry couldn't help it...

@Aidan... Are you quite satisfied with the people hosting your website ?  I don't mean to be cow'ish but this site is down every 2 days for 12 hours at a time...so the server goes down, it stays down till someone wakes up the next day... Logging on is slow too...

Right I'll stop here then    maybe it's me crashing it....

  it must be all those alpine bears nibbling on the cables as they pass though the matterhorn!

i noticed the site down once a month or so ago..but it's always up whenever i check in (which is usualy once or twice a day) ...maybe its a problem with geographical locations but it all seems ok with uk broadband ....how about everyone else spread out among the continents?

   actualy tom..i was childishly tempted to reply to your thanking me  by saying 'dont mention it' and signing it as mr hyde....but ive been enjoying what you do alot  so it's good to know your being active and busy!
   rock em up fellah!!cos youre doing great!!!

Well Mairtin, it looks like you were once again beaten by the partying alpine bear on the Mr. Hyde Joke.... I'm always one step head, always one step ahead.

@Aidan, I experienced 3 times in the last week, that suddenly I could no longer load the site whilst still being on it, by doing a refresh it gets stuck.  Each time I was trying to switch off the Jukebox but the music would carry on, then seconds later I would no longer be able to refresh the site, it would be like unreachable, but that's from Internet Explorer.

Now for the first time I decided to troubleshoot and went into Firefox and there I was able to open the site straight away whilst I still can't refresh it on IE.  So something in my IE profile, a cookie or something is causing troubles on IE, maybe rebooting my pc is what in fact fixed it each time.  So now we know the site is not really going down.

But I think switching off the Jukebox does not function correctly...it's a bit sporradic, it comes on again after refreshing or changing pages....It used to work weeks ago....

Mairtin,
Thank you, we are tearing round the country gigging and getting great feedback.. I don't think I'd do anything else with my life.
I packed in my job, just to go play guitar.. I ain't got no money, but I have a group of real kick ass lads I love gigging with.
The download is actually going really well, we are up to number 2 now, and we are going to do a good bit of promotion next week so we will see how it all goes!

Thanks for letting me know. I don't usually get much problems with the site down for me but I'm in up-side-down land and usually online when you all are fast asleep. A website monitor service indicates about 99 - 100% uptime normally. Sounds like there may be something funny going on with your IE browser. If anyone else can give me reports on how the site is working for you that would be helpful.

No no you are right....  I did discover that when trying to swich off the  jukebox I would no longer be able to refresh the site...then I discovered that it was just with the browser and it was ok again when I close all my tabs and relaunch the browser.... But I think there is something wrong with switching off of the Jukebox, the music still play despite, and when clicking on  show/do not show is what seems to cause the problem....at least the site is not REALLY going down... it's just me going down...
