I'm not suprised the forum is still going at all..NMA do things there own way..if no one else has a forum anymore you can be sure they will!
And yes definetly keep it running...there has been a big upsurge in posts in recent months and I learn new and insightful stuff on the band and many other aspects of music and life every week when I look in.. from the intelligent witty and thoughtful people who post here.
Maybe have a refresh in some way though and remember to keep any news updated though Vic!..Faecesbook etc is always ahead these days and that's where people are going alot now I guess.
