You are in my prayers also Don.


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

You wonderful folks have me in "happy tears", as my nurse, Amy, calls them.

These are the thoughts that truly matter, not what's chiseled in my headstone.

Still absolutely no appetite, zilch, zero, nada. The mere thought of solid food literally makes me gag. That makes over a week sustaining myself on cappuccino. They weighed me yesterday out of concern and, wouldn't you know, I've actually gained! Dr. authorized "anything he wants to ease the symptoms but the bug simply must run it's course!" then added, "he'll eat when he gets hungry enough!" On last count, five patient friends have died from complications and pneumonia and eight others are hospitalized. Friends, this is a killer bug and it's reaching epidemic proportions in the region. Deaths being reported are attributed to influenza, duh!

Thanks again for your thoughts and prayers. I actually feel stronger today but not enough to want to get in my power wheelchair and terrorize the octogenarian chicks quite yet. Chuckle.

See why I love this place?!

I'm of the same opinion as Tommyc, except I'm thinkin' Tully. It's magic.

So many good thoughts and good wishes and good songs and Big Damn Manly Hugs™ for you, Don. You are a joy on these forums, and it would indeed be grand for us all to get together and sing all night. Therefore, you better beat this stupid pack o' germs so we can hammer out the details, mmkay?


Best,

Hang in there Don!

The joke thread definitely needs your tender touch now and again. I'm sure with the pace of technology these days we'll hear your dulcet vocal tones adorning some wonderful love songs yet!

Don,

I know already that you are a trooper and will fight your best to fend off that virus. But while you are rest assured that your many many friends here will be praying for you each and every day.

St. Paddy's coming soon . . . Irish Eyes Are Smiling will have new meaning for me this year.

Later,

Here's a little ditty to cheer you up and maybe help you relax a bit while we all continue to pray for your recovery Don.

It's by the Irish Tenors and it's a beautiful rendition.

Carkins, I hope that rolling on the floor is good for my viruses cuz 'at's what you have me doin'. Thank you so much, my friend. My aide brought my lunch and wet herself while reading over my shoulder. Rodney tended to push the limits of censorship but nothing that would raise an eyebrow on prime time TV today. I would post it on the Joke Thread and see how many get through Canadian Customs.

That one adjective, when applied to an Oyrishan, blows your integrity clear outa the water!

Thanks for getting me "laughter tears" running doon me wee Oyrish leg.

Don, I just saw this on an Oyrish green T-shirt “You can’t drink all day if you don’t start first thing in the morning”! The tiny bit of Oyrish in me loved at! As did the majority Italian in me!

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
