Website Trouble

As you may have heard, we've been moving our website from the old server out in California to a brand new location (out in California), and given Murphy's Law, we've been having some problems getting everything running smoothly. For those of you who have tried to order stuff in the past two weeks (new customers especially), you may have not been able to get an account. Most of these problems have been eliminated, so if you were waiting to order the new Shams record or the highly recommended Charles Caldwell record, go right ahead and click here now.

Don't come saying to me nothing about, That's yours and that's mine. You're gonna cause some bad confusion if you do now. You better keep that on your mind."
