In yet another in a series of honors, Clawjob has had its legacy cemented by the world's foremost lexicon of rock lore, Uncle John's Bathroom Reader Plunges into Music!

The wise editors of this venerated tome have included Clawjob's science fiction rock opera Space Crackers in a short list of greatest flop concept albums in history!

As you probably already know, our recent Capcom Digital Day event was a media event. Meaning, the invites were extended only to gaming press and media folks, as opposed to the general public. What you probably didn’t know was that we actually extended a few “community” invites to the Capcom community: Loyal Capcom community fans who happened to be located around the San Francisco area.

I followed two of them, Tony and Alex, around for most of the event, getting their informal impressions on what they saw and taking pictures of the whole thing. At the end of which held a special surprise for them!

Its seems like it's been forever, even though we were only down for a bit over 4 weeks. Most everyone probably knows the story by now, but on January 17th the disc that holds VGMdb (and GFF) went down and wouldn't boot back up. We scrambled around looking for our backups, discovering that what we had together was considerably older than we remembered, so old that the only option was to attempt some kind of data recovery. Our former hosting company LayeredTech agreed to send the dead drive to us if we paid a ransom of $300 plus shipping. We had no choice, and canceled our contract with them once Miles received the drive.

Timabaland's record company settled with that Finnish individual, and now both parties are trying to avoid giving GRG any recognition, credit or share.
