Wasn't sure where and how to post a message. I think this is it.
Thanks for trying to continue Board. This has been a great site for years. I love the "news/bullentin board" of Ron's. I hope those type of messages continue for us "oldies" lovers!!

Well, I was able to register using my old username and my old password. Now, is there any way to still access or transfer any of the recent and older posts from the new site to this one? And, how do you initiate a new thread on this site? And I will show my age and experience by asking the question if any of you know what very popular crooner actually recorded a version of the Laurel and Hardy theme song "Dance of the Cuckoos"? I know this actually falls outside of the usual parameter of an "oldies music" time frame but I ran across it while updating my collection of MP3s I have stored on my external hard drive.....

It isn't possible to bring posts from the old site into this one. But since they would have eventually disappeared there anyway, I'm ok with that. And there's a New topic button in the lower right corner of the General Discussion screen that should allow you to start a new thread.

I have a 45 from the 60's on Motown credited to "The Ones". Anyone know anything about this group?

You Haven't Seen My Love is great by them. Is that the 45 you have?

Hi All. I would also like to thank Lorne and everybody else involved with this board. I really didn't post much on the other board but I was a lurker. ha ha ha My real name is Gary but I go by jthyme. Glad to be here but I just can't promise how much I will post but I'm sure you'll get my 2 cents worth at times.

I've been checking the old board daily for over 20 years and only posted a couple of times. I always learned something new. Thank you Lorne for being the keeper of this old flame.

Much like the old board, there isn't gobs and gobs of new activity daily.. I'm lucky if I remember to check in twice a week.

Very true. I've actually been happy with the activity level so far, and it's certainly made me feel that it was worthwhile to set up this new board.

Personally, without metrics to substantiate it, I think there appears to be fairly good level of participation in this site. Hopefully, it's not just the "novelty" of the new site. Once again, thanks Lorne for your efforts to continue these conversations. There's a vast amount of "corporate knowledge" being shared and I have learned a great deal from the contributors.

The board is now a month old, and there have been 185 posts. And although quite a few have related to the changeover to a new site, I still think that's a very good total.
