Aug. 20, 2025: Temporary Message Board Closure The company hosting the message board sprung a surprise price hike on me that would have more than tripled the monthly hosting costs, so I've been scrambling to find an alternative. I've purchased a license for self-hosting a different platform and am hiring a consultant to migrate the existing board's content (posts, user profiles, etc.). However, this means I need to shut down the message board for anywhere from 3 days to (hopefully less than) a week so the data can be migrated. While this is an expensive proposition up front, it should result in some long-term savings. The current message board will be closed down at some point this Saturday, August 23. I will post updates here. The main site (where you are reading this), will NOT be affected. -Dan

Second release by Mr Barnes and the one that made him break through the music market...this guy was(is)like the Aussie version of John Cougar Mellecamp but with AOR touches here and there..."No Second Prize","Working Class Man"(a hit single back then),"Boys Cry Out For War"(rocks!),"Paradise"(catchy Rock & Roll),"American Heartbeat" & "Ride The Night Away" are in my book directly...enjoyable...85/100
