Yet another show booked! (Rogerbox)
In addition to the March 20th show at Scalici’s in Allen Park, we’ve booked an April 2nd show at Paychecks Lounge in Hamtramck. Other shows to follow will be at the Bullfrog in Redford and the I-Rock in Detroit. As always, the latest info, photos, and music can be had at Rogerbox.net.

Music news. (Rogerbox update)
We’ve just finished our second practice with our new drummer, Andy. Our previous drummer, Eric, had to move to Ohio for his job. We still keep in touch with Eric and are glad all is well. Andy is a fast learner. As a result, most of our set is ready for a performance. We’ve already booked Scalici’s in Allen Park for a show on March 20th. We might even have a new song in the set. See you there.

New site at work. Getting warmer outside.
At 3am this morning, we began our rollout of the new site based on PHP. We’re still using servlets and XSLT for most of the applications (forms, validation), but everything else is php. First off, it’s nearly 20 times faster and 1/100th the load on the server (no exaggeration). Second off, the php part of the deployment now takes roughly 5 minutes, including transfer time to the servers in another state. (Java/XSLT deployments averaged 1.5 to 3 hours.) The only issues we have had are with network settings and XSLT/Java uptime/speed. PHP is officially rock solid in an enterprise environment. Oh… I almost forgot to mention that we haven’t even turned on ZPS yet. I’m just glad that Gina hasn’t gotten sick of my ~12-16 hour/day (+ weekends) work schedule in the past 6 weeks.
It officially above 40 degrees in Michigan! If I don’t get outside soon, I may pop.

Chance to catch my breath.
Our big project at work is finally starting to come together. Although I did work a bit over the weekend, it wasn’t the usual 8-10 hours per day. A perk of the “accelerated” schedule is that I got some new, faster hardware. Me likey g5!
Hopefully the weather will break soon. This about the time every year that I start to get cabin fever. I have a pile of relatively small projects I’d like to complete around the house and in the garage.
