New Greasy Lake is online

Published 2010-10-10

As you have probably noticed, change has come to Greasy Lake. Today we present a brand new version of the site, with brand new features and a brand new look. The highlights include:

  • New reference section with all the trivia you need about Bruce: discography, setlists, chords and lyrics
  • A new Google map showing all the historic places that any Bruce fan should know
  • A new Leisure section where you can test your Bruce knowledge and vote in the poll
  • The possibility to share Greasy Lake news stories with your Facebook friends
  • The possibility to rate songs and albums
  • A cool new look for the message board
  • An updated timeline complete with embedded YouTube videos showing the highlights of Bruce's career

Apart from that, we hope the site has become easier to use with the things you need only a few clicks away.

As if all that wasn't enough, we hope to add even more features in the coming months, including a bibliography of Springsteen books (left behind on the old version of Greasy Lake), a Greasy Lake museum, and much more.

Oh, and I almost forgot to mention our new official Facebook page where we'll keep you up to date with what's happening in the Bruce world and on Greasy Lake in particular. If you're more into Twitter (or both), also don't forget our official Twitter page with more than 2000 followers.

To celebrate this new version, today also sees the launch of a new trivia quiz where one lucky winner can get his or her hands on a copy of Lawrence Kirsch's incredible book about the Darkness Tour and album, The Light in Darkness.

Go try it out!

Well, we hope you enjoy the changes! Feel free to contact us if you find any errors or there's something you can't figure out. Or if you just want to send us a comment.
