Last day for ticket amnesty, take two

Posted on August 29, 2008 | Leave a comment

If you’ve been sitting around for the last month upset that you didn’t pay your long overdue parking tickets back in July during the amnesty period, we’d like to remind you that the city extended the deadline until today.

That’s right, you can feel relaxed as you head to your game later this week if you’re not worried about a boot on the car.

So head over the city’s online payment center or run over to the courthouse and wipe that slate clean.

While you’re there, you may want to pay ours…

That new radio station’s good

Posted on August 19, 2008 | Leave a comment

Whitney had some fun covering the launch of Live 100.5 FM on Friday, and the station’s been having fun getting established in town. They’ve already got a Facebook group (remember, you’ve got to have a Facebook account to see it – and 185 folks have already found it), a live stream of the station available on the station’s website and (in case you missed it) Matt over at AL.com’s got the first 15 songs ever played so you’re ready for that quiz that will inevitably come up.

Urban Standard’s got a website

Posted on August 6, 2008 | Leave a comment

Those of you that have been wondering when Urban Standard would launch a website, they just have!

They’ve quietly launched urbanstandard.net and will upload some more information in the coming weeks, including their performance calendar (a stage has already been installed by the front window of the coffee house) and a photo gallery. What’s great for most folks is the fact that they now have an online detailed edition of their menu.

Head on over and check it out!

John Elkington‘s name is on the line… at least in Birmingham. The Birmingham News reports that the developer charged with creating Birmingham’s newest entertainment district has pledged that The Forge will be open in 390 days – a self-imposed August 1, 2009 deadline.

Well, we’ve been working on a one-stop shop for folks to check out what’s happening around our local web scene in a glance – a meta aggregator in the style of Alltop or PopUrls, but for Birmingham. Well, we’re still working on ours but the folks that brought you Birmingham Pulse have already launched theirs. It’s called Bhamlinks.com and currently contains feeds from our local media outlets, some of the city’s more popular blogs and us. They’re looking for feedback but since we don’t know if they want us to share the contact information, we’re going to ask you to comment here and let them know.

Delta Sky Magazine - Heart of the City

Well, we’ve become quite the popular city to write about. Last year the city enjoyed coverage in Southwest’s in-flight magazine focused on Rickwood Field and the Rickwood Classic. In May, Delta Air Lines published a story about the city in general in May’s Sky Magazine. Luckily, the story is still up on the Internet, so you can see what they wrote about us…

So, are we going away?

Posted on May 23, 2008 | 2 comments

About a month ago, I announced that we were seriously considering shutting the site down effective May 30. (Surprise to everyone who didn’t see it…) Well, we’ve made a decision: while we are still a long way from achieving our financial goals, we’re not going away – at least not yet.

We wanted to make sure that you knew that before you figured out that we weren’t going to be making posts to the site through early Tuesday morning. When we wake up from the long weekend (at around 10 a.m. CDT), we’ll be letting you know about how you can win passes to City Stages 20!
