Hey, thanks for the mention 🙂
I read that piece on guitar faces a few days back, and really enjoyed it, but so far I’m very unimpressed with Gibson’s sad attempt at faux-blogging.
The guy actually writes “I was perusing one of my favorite music blogs,” and then refuses to actually link out to the blog that apparently inspired his entire post.
Bad form.
Oh well, who am I, the blog police?
Hehe, thanks again for the link!

Additionally, I don’t see a way to add comments to the posts. That being said, at least they are entering into this market. I’ve spoken with one of the Web developers there, and I think they are on the right track. Maybe it will just take some time to get it right.
My pleasure to link to you. Keep up the great posts!
