Regularly on the big sites such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube there are hacks - we seem to avoid them here, thanks to our Spam & Troll filters which work well, though need updating. I suggest if you reckon any of our accounts elsewhere have been hacked, you check on here before opening any messages on them and spreading the virus. Our problem here is going offline every now and again (we're trying to fix that) - remember, this site has been here for 25 years now, long before most others, only refreshed in 2005. Sadly we lost all of our Forum contributions then (StarBlvrds went down with all sites) - we now have everything since then copied and backed up and did manage to salvage most JK posts from the start (see ARCHIVE on here).

In the early days (anyone remember the Music Industry Velvet Rope? That was our original mentor) there were very few outlets for music gossip. The reason we called The Tipsheet by that name was thanks to Bill Gavin and others in the 1960's in America. Spreading the word on great music without corruption.

We try to do that here with Your Views on more general topics. Please make it a habit to check in here at least once every day (as about 10,000 do) if you want guaranteed updates.
