I am saddened by the news that TTD will be closing. Last week we lost the Queen, and now TTD... two pillars of many people's lives gone...

I've had a great run since signing up with TTD in October 2007. Through TTD I've come to know many artists I would otherwise have never heard of, and got ample exposure to the live magic of the artists that I did know.

In any case, the reasons for shutting down TTD are understood and appreciated. I once ran a Shawn Lane tribute site - a job that quickly became untenable due to complicated software and server security issues. I can only imagine what it takes to run a tracker site like TTD!

In any case, a BIG thanks to all who've made TTD possible - and indeed to all who have been sharing all this brilliant music over the years.

Vale TTD.
