I haven't seen news or changes to the DA news or other pages for some time. Any chance we can update more frequently, and maybe have a page for what's potentially in the works? I know you've been burned before with the preorder stuff, but what happens with infrequent updates is an eventual loss of interest and lower site traffic.
I haven't posted much recently because there's very little to post about, to be frank, and nothing to get me excited in anticipation.
Thoughts?

I just got a notice of a new recording and tour for the Choir in April 2012. The Choir is doing pretty well as far as output and activity.
I'd like to see Terry and/or DA get back into the productive phase - it has been quite a while...

We're sort of in the in-between-time for DA related news.... we're waiting on several things with no clear time frame so its hard to announce anything officially. And like you say, we do get burned if we jump the gun too much - no matter how well intentioned, or even accidental it might be.
- We're still desparately trying to get some of the important tour footage for a possible DVD. Its all up in the air... waiting on other people.
- We're also waiting on the Neverhood thing to be finished... Terry was back in the studio doing something for it not long ago. Doug's artwork kept growing last I heard and the whole project keeps getting bigger. It'll be really special and cool once its done, but I have no idea when that'll be just yet.
- News on a new DA record, a live disc, more touring or anything like that is also all up in the air and waiting on various things. There could be something to announce tomorrow or it could be a month away. I have no idea.
I would love to have more news more often.. the way things tend to fall together, it makes it very tough. Sometimes its like a hurricane of news.. other times its like watching paint dry.
During the DA-downtime, Mike's and the Dogs websites are finally being totally revamped. Those have been tied up for a while with those old original designs but we finally got the green light to blow them apart and do something different. Mike's new site launched on January 1st and he'll have some cool news soon. The new Dogs site will probably launch this weekend. (I think Mike wants to do a new 77s site also eventually, but its less urgent.)
The plan is when Mike's and the Dogs sites are done, we'll revamp the DA site with a new look and -hopefully- some kind of news about one or all of those projects.
