WEBSITE: Once again hello. As everyone might have noticed, this site wasnt updated for over 4 months! I know that's a lot but i encountered a series of problem like my mid-year exams and my trial version of CuteFTP expiring. Finally i can update the site again. But i think you'll feel my abcence soon because i'm 5 weeks away from my end of year exams. I'll try to do my best. It surprises me that in merely 6 months over 2700 people visited my site, this is amazing!

ITALIAN VERSION: As you may have heard, around November 2000 i was talking about an Iitalian version for this site. Well i'm sorry to dissapoint you but there will be no Italian version. I've taken this decition because the English and Spanish versions already take a lot of time and because my Italian is not good enough to make a website.

HOME VIDEO: For the ones that do not know, POWERMAN 5000 has released their home video "BACKSTAGE AND BEYOND THE INFINITE". As said before, this home video features every PM5K video, live performances, backstage stuff, extremely rare fottage from POWERMAN 5000's early days and some never before seen MC SPIDER video clips.

TABS ADDED: I just added the bass tab for Organizized. Also added the guitar tabs for Good Times Roll, The Son Of X-51 and Ultra Mega. Finally i have founf drum tabs! i added the tabs for When Worlds Collide and Nobody's Real.

December 3, 2000

November 21, 2000

Sorry, in the last three weeks i wasn't able to update this site due to after school exams and loads of school work. In a few days i will ADD NEW BASS TABS to the tabs section. Hopefully by the beginning of December the Italian Version of the site will start to take shape. Keep coming back!

SPIDER ONE STARTS HIS OWN RECORD LABEL: This can't be more real than reality itself! Spider One has alunched his own record company, MEGATRONIC RECORDS, of PM5K's official label DreamWorks Records. "The philosophy behind my label is simple: find great bands who make great music, and give them the opportunity to be heard......I'm interested in signing all kinds of music, not only bands in the PM5K style. Beign on the road, i get demos all the time from bands that can't get the attention of major labels. Now I have the chance to hook up bands that I like." Said Spider. MEGATRONIC is gearing up for it's first release coming April 2001, from a band called HALFCOCKED. This band is originally from Boston but is now living in Los Angeles. HALFCOCKED is a group composed of 3 girls and 2 guys who's music is goign to kick ass. If you want more information on the band you can check out their website at www.halfcocked.com.
