Glenn Rubenstein - "So it's been awhile..." (October 2005)

First off, thanks for stopping by. Thank you for your continued interest. Seriously...I can't believe the traffic this site still receives. Part of me is amazed that people are still listening to Headboard songs, buying Headboard CDs on Amazon, and downloading Headboard tracks on iTunes. I know it's been a long time with no updates. Even with no effort on my part, your interest and continued support has kept Headboard's music alive...everytime I've checked, it's still been strong. Thank you.

I am in the process of updating this site and getting all things Headboard in order. There is information below and links to where you can buy the CD's. I'm debating putting a retrospective CD together with the best tracks + myriad bonus tracks (lots of stuff that never saw the light of day). Who knows? If there is interest, I'll do it...please email me (Glenn) your thoughts.

It should come as no surprise that I've taken a break from all things Headboard for quite awhile, I didn't even really listen to any of our music in the past 2-3 years. I was pretty bummed about how things ended with the last line-up (it was *my* favorite since "The End Is Near"-era). Regrets? Sure...but I can say that I tried and gave it 100% (x 7 even).

I've actually been great since then. I've channelled my energy into other endeavors (creating an online series, running my own production company, and living a *very* interesting life).

In December, it will be 10 years since I first started Headboard...crazy, huh? I just *finally* loaded my complete Headboard collection onto my iPod and listened to a reasonable retrospective on a long car ride. I've also played some tracks for people I've met in recent years who were curious about"my past life." Kind of re-discovering it has given me a fresh perspective on things. There are songs I really like. There are songs I would love to fix or tweak. There are key points in the timestream that I've noted, just in case I ever come into possession of a time machine. :)

From 1995 to 2002 I put a lot of effort into Headboard. In a way, it was the most important thing in my life. Because I enjoyed it so much, I wanted to do it full-time. "Making it" became the all consuming goal. Looking back, we came a lot closer than most bands do--many times, actually. In fact, the internal stress always proved the breaking point.

Anyhow, it's nice to be re-visiting this out of enjoyment and genuine love of the music we've created. I'm going to be adding a lot of information to this site--photos, info, FAQs, music, videos--and we'll see what happens.

On behalf of myself--and everyone else who's been involved with Headboard over the years--thank you for both your continued interest and support!
