A Short Announcement

By Rebecca Nicholson

News logoLoyal readers. We at The Lipster will not be posting with as much frequency over the next few days. It's a long story, but buckle up...

Initially The Lipster was a funded project and a full-time job. This week we were told that all funding had been pulled and we were being made redundant.

But it's not all doom and gloom. The Lipster itself will continue to exist as an independent, not-for-profit site run by me and other volunteers in our spare time.

More news to come, but bear with us for the next few days while we get a few things sorted out.

See you all very, very soon.

Rebecca x

also very sorry to hear the news, but glad you're still sticking around in some shape or form!

Booo! I suspected something like this might happen after that announcement on DIS. Keep going, I think you're great.

Such a shame. I don't know where else we could go to get such smart, sardonic reports/opinions on musical news oddities. You better keep it going, yeah.

Don't be sad! I have faith that The Lipster will stick around :) Fight the Power and all that shizz, Watch credibility rise!

That's a real shame - but glad it's not the end for you. Can you bring back the weekly mag digest too? I miss its witty insights x

Thanks for all of these kind comments, folks. I miss the Mag Report too so we'll try to get it reinstated soon. Onwards and upwards...

Awww - well, I too am glad it's not the end. Good luck and here's to the future. Let me know if you need any help!! A 50ft Woman is always useful ;-)

Late to comment as have been on holiday... Very sad to hear this, the site is really funny and definitely filled a niche in the UK music webspace. Best of luck Rebecca.
