Please note: countryjoe is a troll, same person posting under multiple forum names, sometimes participating in the same threads under two names. (note that forum admins get additional info about posts, so this is easy to determine)
It is disappointing to me when a regular user decides to adopt an alter ego like this. Especially when they are using this alter ego to insult people.
Anyway, countryjoe (and your other forum names), please grow up. To everyone else, please ignore him(s).
Have Fun!

Thank you Peter for letting us know.
It's not the first time a user has taken multiple user names on here. It's rare that that an owner of a forum would step forward with a post like yours.
I appreciate it, as I'm sure a lot of other users do.

Thanks Peter,
Very disappointing that the great team of genuine members here occasionally gets exposed to non-genuine outsiders with 'undesirable' directions.
I have often wondered about both the quality and direction of the posts from that cj fellow. Shame on you cj. Very poor standards...
Thanks for the tip-off

Many thanks, Peter.
This is a great forum and it's a shame that it should suffer by the actions of individuals with unclear motives.

Thanks, Peter.
I couldn't follow his logic anyway. Hopefully he'll get his dosage adjusted.
I sincerely appreciate the excellent job that you and the moderators are doing to keep these PG Forums a pleasant family place to visit for music discussion, friendly, innocent banter, friendly exchanges of encouragement, and wholesome fellowship.
Trolls stick out like a proverbial sore thumb and don't last long. Thanks again for your diligent housekeeping.

I was an admin of a board and a mod on a couple of others. Trolls are very taxing and often time consuming. I was always amazed that even with different names and/or proxie IP's their identity was always obvious. I recall banning the same guy three times!
Thank you for keeping this board community oriented and a pleasant internet spot to hang out.

I have seen this happen a few times in the cakewalk forum. The admin's would delete the user and block his IP if it really presented a problem. And through the years, several got handed that treatment.

Apparently, a violation of forum rules 2, 4 & 11.

What are the other names so we can REALLY ignore him?
I am using the new 1040XTRAEZ form this year. It has just 2 lines.
1. How much did you make in 2023?
2. Send it to us.

Peter,
Have you figured out who "Country Joe" is? Is doesn't take the CIA or a forensics lab to figure it out.
Look at the language in the MP3 lunatic ravings. Look closely at the vernacular. He has given himself away. There is only one place in the world where this language lines up. He is your customer. You have his address. You know where he lives. Look closely. I am sure you have already figured it out.
Drunk people leave sloppy trails.

Thank you for the heads up Peter. Yes thanx. It is so sad that we need a heads up for a low life.
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.

Hopefully Country Joe's alter ego will win his split personality contest.

I remember may years ago when the forum was seriously trolled, apparently as part of some weird social experiment that did nothing but result in discord, anger, and confusion.
I just don't understand the motivation behind doing such things.
Good riddance! Thanks, Peter!

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."
Convenient Ways to Listen to Band-in-a-Box® Songs Created by Program Users!
The User Showcase Forum is an excellent place to share your Band-in-a-Box® songs and listen to songs other program users are creating!
There are other places you can listen to these songs too! Visit our User Showcase page to sort by genre, artist (forum name), song title, and date - each listing will direct you to the forum post for that song.

This page has SoundCloud built in, so it won't redirect you. We've also added the link to the Artists SoundCloud page here, and a link to their forum post.
