[24. May 2005]
Promises revisited. Nearly a year ago, I mentioned that I was planning a redesign of this site. "Intended" to redesign the site is a more appropriate term. However, there has been some real progress in the fruitition of the next iteration of this Uli Roth site...as in there has been at least something! After reading the book Designing With Web Standards, this site is going to be transitioning away from the older 90's style method of HTML and site design, and heading toward a more CSS and XHTML centric way of design. This fresh design harkens back to the early days of the Uli Jon Roth website which was a breeding ground for experimentation for what the Web possessed. For the first time in many years, that element of excitement and freshness has returned, and it will be coming to this site, which should hopefully see its grand opening some time in 2005. Hopefully.

[30. January 2005]
The Earthquake and We'll Burn the Sky tabs used to be hosted on another server, but now they have been finally migrated over to the Edenwaith server.

[16. January 2005]
Promises, promises, promises...Here it is, nearly half a year later, and still not much in the way of a new site design. With the proper amount of time and dedication, this site will hopefully see a new look sometime this year. If that doesn't happen, then it might at least undergo a few minor cosmetic changes and additions.

[1. May 2004]
It's reconstruction time again! Every year or two (or more), this web site undergoes its own metamorphosis. This current site design has served its purpose well for the past several years, but it has come time to make some changes. If you have any suggestions on what you would like to see done or added to this site, please send me an e-mail.

Re-linked the image for the Beethoven Paraphrase.

[17. February 2004]
Created and linked a page for the album Metamorphosis.

[18. January 2003]

[29. July 2002]
Site will be moving: After 5 years, this site will be migrating to another server by the end of this year. Further information will be posted when the new web site address has been finalized (don't you hate waiting?).

[29. July 2002]
New tabs in the works: I have been (very) slowly been working through a few solos on songs like "Electric Sun" and "Lilac", and if my efforts prove to be at least half-way successful, they will be posted.
