2010 Beer Bash Phase I: Pick The Month!

The weather may be cold, but it’s time to start thinking about warmer days ahead. That means it’s time to start planning the annual VIP Beer Bash! I need to hear from all my VIP members…

Having Trouble Logging In?

Yeah, believe me, I know about it. There are two things going on here:

• Some users can access the site but not the downloads. If you haven’t noticed, I host the actual files at matthewebelentertainment.com instead of here (that will change when the site’s redesigned). My website host recently moved all my sites to a new machine (hooray upgrades!). This means your internet provider might not have updated their DNS servers yet, so “matthewebelentertainment.com” might point to the old machine instead of the new one. Other than calling up Comcast, Verizon, or whomever controls your internet and telling them to update their DNS servers, I’m not sure what to tell people having this problem. Look into getting OpenDNS instead?
• Pretty much everyone is having trouble logging into the Backstage area from links in the blog or the sidebar. I am too. It sucks and it’s a failure of the software I’m using. I’ve got a trouble ticket open with the programmer and he’s going to try and get it working, but until then your best bet is to log in directly from the backstage area.

  Update: Looks like a simple setting change was all that was needed. Go ahead, try it out for yourself, the login widget should work fine now.

I know it’s not much of an excuse, but I do all this stuff myself, so I’m working as fast as I can to fix the problems. One of these days I’ll be able to afford an actual web dude, but until then this patchwork of software will have to do. Thanks for your patience!

A Note About November and December

It’s the beginning of December and, as many subscribers have noticed, I haven’t released new material in a few weeks. Why? Because I’ve been working 7 days a week on a Christmas album. So what’s going to happen to your membership benefits?

All Matthew Ebel dot net subscribers will be receiving The High Orbit Holiday Special as part of their regular downloads.

That’s right. Since the album project took all of my time for the last month, I haven’t been able to deliver on certain things. Hopefully this project will make up for it. Merry Christmas!
