 		[SPEC][QUESTION] question re: heshrecords.com
Can anyone point me to a cached version of Hesh Records, page 1? I ask because there seems to have been a slight revision in the text describing Hesh's acquisition of the Viard album (mostly to its grammatical and typographical detriment Razz - but I want to know if there really is new information here, specifically concerning the relaunch of Hesh Records with the Silver City and Viard's "fugitive" status).

Current text:
Quote:
Mysterious, a little dark and sometimes disturbing and we're not necessarily just talking about Viard's musical output. It would be fair to say that his isolation and almost fugitive-like status has heavily influenced 'The Silver City' , Viard's second album for HESH records.

The circumstances regarding its release and the story behind the various introspective tracks are confused and wrapped in rumour and intrigue. Some five months ago a package arrived at Helix's beach villa on the Moebius Strip in Perplex City. Having been away for a while it was not picked up immediately but sat unopened in Helix's mailbox until his return.

Upon opening the faded brown envleope Helix found a memory card simply labelled 'Viard The Silver City'. Excited he immediately loaded up the media and sat transfixed by what he heard. After many years of Hesh records simply existing as a fond memory Helix decided to relaunch the label with Viard's work.

Keen to get in touch with his old protege Helix flipped open his handset and placed a video call to Viard's old number, hoping that the elusive character would respond.

Static burst into a bright image and it took a while before Helix realised that he was looking at the sun sparkling over a beautiful deep green sea. Viard came into view briefly and all Helix could hear were the words, 'I've got to go...the music explains everything'.

The screen went blank and out of some form of respect and understanding Helix didn't bother to reconnect.

Wherever Viard was he wanted to remain hidden for the time being and Helix could emphathise, the past few years had been intense to say the least.

Excited, he immediately loaded up the media and sat transfixed by what he heard. Helix had for many years been largely uninvolved with the label, but was inspired to return to work with Viard personally. Keen to get in touch with his old protege, Helix called Viard's key, hoping that the elusive character would for once respond.

 		Not sure if there's any new info or not, but currently I can see the old version at Google's cache if that helps...

 		hm. I'm afraid I can't help you with a mirror .. but uhm .. it would seem Briana's mirror is missing a number of sites at the moment.

http://www.heshrecords.com/
http://www.perplexcityrail.com/
http://www.silburn-griggs.com/
http://www.seaside-press.com/
http://www.theoozezone.com/

http://www.perplexcity.com/ is also missing, but I assume that's because he doesnt want to download the whole of the leaderboard and everyone's profiles and every other concievable link.

Also -- and I'm not sure there's anything at all to be done about it -- the old early mirrors which nik-Doof hosted don't exist any longer either.

 		*Cassandra cries as well

I suppose one can't save everything...

As a note, the Hesh Records page on Viard has changed back to the following:

Wonder why the other text was in there...and whether it was meant to be. Also, who wrote the Page1 text (both versions), and how did he/she know some of these details?
