The ShadowsArena site has been around for a few years now - started by a couple of fellow Shads players who enjoy playing and listening to Shads music.
It was not developed to take over any other site or carry any existing format used by anyone esle. It was designed and launched by me purely to create a small community where like minded people can play, listen and encourage each other to either improve or even take up playing the music.
I dont really understand why you would think ShadowsArena would take over the stewardship of Dave Dixon's material - we are happy as we are... and with what mateial we have, even if we only have a handful of members.
No missed opportunity as far as I am concerned.......
We do not admit to offering anything new and never have done and it just so happens that a few members here are also members on ShadowsArena.
