This will mean nothing to people anywhere but northeast Ohio, but I need to post it somewhere just to get rid of it.

Here in Cleveland we all enjoyed the work of a rock reviewer named Jane Scott. She reviewed everybody you can name until her retirement in 2002 from our major newspaper, The Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Jane passed away overnight, and the city is in a state of stunned realization that a local icon is gone. Jane began covering the music scene right around the time The Beatles changed our lives. She was a retired Navy Lieutenant, and was a strong participant in the campaign to bring the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame to Cleveland. And only in Ohio will you get this joke, but we gave her a free pass for having gone to college at Michigan.

To quote Jane, she truly was "wonnerful wonnerful wonnerful".

RIP Jane. We'll miss you.

There's a few of us in MI that get the joke too.
Sad to hear the news.

Wel,l you guys in that state up north will have several years of gridiron dominance now and I am already preparing for that. With the team OSU will have for the next few years I believe that school up north could probably grab 45 guys at the student union and win.

And yes, it will ALWAYS be "that school up north" to me.... LOL!!!

"Oh, How I Hate Ohio State." Ever heard that one Eddie?

Sorry to hear of the lady's passing.

Oh we've heard them all by now, Don. I love the "Ohio/Michigan" jokes.

What's the difference between Bigfoot and a Michigan girl? One is big, hairy, ugly and smells bad. The other has big feet.


Why did they install astroturf where Michigan plays? It cuts down on the cheerleaders grazing at halftime.


We know them all. :-)

But yes, Jane was an icon here and a warm and wonderful person. She lived a great life for 92 years. I can only DREAM about hanging on for 92 years. And she was alert and vibrant with very little memory loss. She was in assisted living just because of the general amount of care someone at that age needs. The whole music community is bummed today.

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."
