Sing Us Your Favorite Tune
February 2008 to June 2009
website
A music blog with over twenty contributors, who post songs and stories about those songs multiple times a week. Created and edited by Joshua Dumas.
UPDATE: Wow, we got a cease and desist! So, the site’s down for the time being. When I get a minute I’ll look into what we can do about getting (at least) everyone’s stories back up. American copyright law is so deeply flawed.
