Hello, and welcome to Bandidge.com!

The website you see before your very eyes was in development from mid 2006, which flew by quicker than any of us on the Bandidge team could imagine. But why the long wait? It's simple. As a famous drinks advertising slogan goes: "We only let you drink it when it's ready." The same rules apply here, just with more viewing, and less drinking...

We didn't want to put the website online as a half-baked idea. We needed the time to find the right people to work on it, the right web design that summed up the identity of Bandidge, and we also needed something good to actually show you.

What you see in front of you is a journey. A journey of 15 months, from wide-eyed trainee journalists, to slightly more experienced music journalists. Everything on this site was done with the ambition in mind of one day having a website to look at that had no real limitations - Only the ambition and determination to do what we wanted.

And this is where you can step in. This website is open to you to submit your articles, reviews, opinions and general musings. If you don't like how something is written, then do the best thing - write something yourself, and have it published, right here on Bandidge. This very site started on that same principle, so don't hesitate - drop me an email and tell me your plans.

Have a look around and tell your friends about us. Introduce yourselves on the message board and check out our MySpace and Facebook pages too. It's only by working together that we can create something incredible.

Look forward to hearing from you,

Rob
