The other day, a good friend of mine texted me and told me he had an extra ticket available to a concert to see a few 90s rockers, STP, Live and Soul Asylum. I haven’t gotten out much lately, so I leapt at the chance to hang out with a great guy and hear a bunch of old rockers from the era I was playing.
My friend told me that he and his w…Read More

The lead singer (Ed?) had introduced a song he wrote about York — and I do love the York Peppermint Patty, which I learned from him is made in the town, or at least the company was founded there — although the lyrics for that song were pretty much Spinal Tap territory. I take it the song isn’t very appreciated there. I suppose I could name the…Read More
York Peppermint Patties were made in York, until Peter Paul, and then Hershey bought them. As a kid I used to walk to the factory from my grandmother’s house and buy factory seconds. Still love them.
And yea I recall “Sh-t Towne”, I will say York has come a long way since then, but the eighties it was going downhill.
The older Strand and Capital…Read More

A musician friend of mine recently posted this to Facebook. True. Plus Gilmour is one of my favorite rock guitarists.

@cclarry is a talented rock guitarist and does a really good cover of a Pink Floyd song. I’d post it if he’s okay with it.

Reflecting on this day, 23 years ago and my very non-marketing experience handling a forum for 9/11 World Trade Center attack survivors.
I walked into my office in Chicago where I was Director of e-Business Strategy for a Fortune 200 that sustained the third-highest employee casualties in the WTC. By mid-morning I was part of a phone call with…Read More

I want to thank two major rock stars.
@cclarry — he’s literally the reason that the Cakewalk Deals subforum (it was just part of their Coffee House Forum, you couldn’t even find it easily; what Ashwin from BandLab calls “the legacy forums; used by an older demographic that BandLab doesn’t really care about) — exist, he’s the person that made…Read More

The answer is yes, cool.
Love that song, one of Radioheads best

So is there a way to link up to YOUTUBE?

Hey, what’s up, Thanks for the invitation the joint looks real swank👍

I’m not complaining (spoiler: I’m complaining), but I share office space with my wife and have to listen to the same 80s songs every day from a streamed local radio station. Right now it’s Madonna’s “Lucky Star.” I’m pretty sure this is the stuff the FBI uses to get kidnappers and cultists hold up in buildings to force them out. A person can on…Read More

How did the Coffee House Forum come about? I originally created a Coffee House Forum prior to launching the site, but I deleted it. I didn’t think the Coffee House needed a forum. But the one that exists is really messed up formatting-wise.
Do users have the ability to create forums? @bapu did you create it? I’m not complaining, I’m just wonde…Read More

Great to see your Thor! I was hoping you’d show up soon! I’m not sure that I’ve told you the story that led to me creating this (for those reading this who are not Thorsten, he’s a long time friend of mine who is a musician / composer who does music for games who wasn’t part of Cakewalk Forums). Most of the people in the forum…Read More

Just a reminder, if you find issues with the site, DO NOT REPORT IT HERE, this is supposed to be a place to chill. And I’m not chilling when you guys post stuff I have to fix here. 🙂 I originally thought the EARLY ADOPTERS GROUP would be best for that, but I’ve realized that a forum is the best fit for it, so I created a subforum and I made it…Read More

@bapu the post where you asked how to upload an image doesn’t permit me to reply due to an issue with that plugin. But I’ve since replaced that plugin with another one and it’s pretty straightforward. To upload an image from your computer just use the image button. To link to an image or video elsewhere, use the link button. Try it and let me…Read More

I’m trying a different media uploading plugin, as I believe the other one was causing issues with the edit and reply functions disappearing.

I just created a subforum for people to raise any technical issues with the site. I created the Early Adopter Group to be the place for people to post issues, but I think the Forums are a better place, as it lets everyone easily see what’s been reported and see the status rather than posting in a social media wall and especially when folks are…Read More

I created the Early Adopter Group for posts related to issues, but I’ve since thought I should create a subforum, so I’ll do that. Can we take it there. But to address the question, it appears that the edit function has disappeared. My guess is that it’s related to the media plugin I recently added. It’s strange because I was able to edit after…Read More

A great man once said, “WUP is life.” I’m pretty sure that great man was named @fleer.
Edith!
WUP is wife 😉
Got three of those in the last week, one for my Horizon bundle. I simply ignored them.

Great to have you! I was thinking that maybe we could use our signatures to tell people our usernames at other forums.

Introduce yourself, please!
I’m Peter. I’m responsible for this place. I hope you like it and stick around. I created it because we’ve come a long way from the days when forums were created by regular people for the sheer joy of it. I created this for my love of music.
