Really, the Last Post
Got the DNS issues resolved, in a way. I've decided not to resolve them. Resolving them caused other issues. Let the chips fall.
So, set your browser to http://www.onlinefolkfestival.com/blog/ because that's where it's going to be from now on.
The feed is at http://www.onlinefolkfestival.com/blog/feed/

OK, so that wasn't the last post
Having DNS issues getting the new blog to show up at http://www.folk-blog.com.
Try http://www.onlinefolkfestival.com/blog/ instead. For the feed, try http://www.onlinefolkfestival.com/blog/feed/ to subscribe to the new feed.
OK, so what this means is that there will be at least one more post notifying everyone that the DNS issues are resolved.
C'est la vie.

The FolkBlog is moving.
I've been using blogger.com for several years and have decided to switch to WordPress to better host it at my own site.
If you come here using the http://folkblog.onlinefolkfestival.com, you should be redirected to the new site automatically. The same if you use the http://www.folk-blog.com/ address.
You may also use http://www.onlinefolkfestival.com/blog/ to get to the new site.
If you subscribe via a feed, you will probably need to update your feed. These is a link at the new site.

Festival Radio in Higher Fidelity
St. Patrick's Day has come and gone, and so has Celtapalooza 2008. Thanks to all who listened - my listenership high for the day was 31 simultaneous listeners, which is much higher than I usually get.
After clearing out all the Celtic music, I've restarted the station in spiffy 96K mp3Pro, a step-up from 64K mp3Pro. The station will sound even better for those of you with high bandwidth. If you haven't listened for awhile, stop by and tune in - I'm sure you'll notice a difference in sound quailty.
