It’s April Fool’s Eve — time to be perfectly serious.
Effective immediately, Red Bank oRBit will be entering an indefinite hiatus that, when you think about it, isn’t much of a hiatus at all. Your oRBit editor and control voice will be turning his attention to some other matters and endeavors over the next couple of months, with the intent of making your time in oRBit a more pleasant experience —and, of course, keeping the lights on over here at Mission Control.
And it’s our intent to bring you back into oRBit as soon as possible, with a new launch, bold new features, and plenty of Astronaut Ice Cream for all.
Without being too maudlin about it, we’re only talking about laying off the posted feature stories for now. In the meantime, in between time, we’ll be bringing you a remarkable simulation of the oRBit experience, and we’ll be doing it three great ways:
1. We’ll still be updating the listings. The invisible hand that gleans knowledge and enlightenment from The Orb listings database can hardly be expected to take a holiday, so you can feel free to visit Red Bank oRBit anytime you’re looking for the latest take on the music, art, film, theater, signings and recreation events happening in this neck of the tall weeds.
2. We’ll be transmitting from the mothership. You can look for the latest postings by Tom Chesek, on all things cultural in and around Red Bank, in the paperless pages of our mothership site, redbankgreen.
3. We’ve got a killer archive. Really. In less than two years we’ve built up quite a nest-egg of features on cool and creative people, surprising celebs, must-see places and just about anything that can said to have occurred within our cultural radar range. We invite you to browse it at your convenience, because it’s going to remain right here — and we’ve got a fully linked index to our favorite features, all of which are a click away when you Continue Reading.
