Success! After 24 hours and lots of hand-holding by the AWESOME DreamHost Customer Support staff, I managed to take down my site, put it back up in a way that allows me to play music, restore all the old posts, and add the Music page for songs like I wanted. Now I can continue to eschew Myspace and PureVolume — elitism preserved! I did lose some photos from earlier posts, but they are acceptable casualties, I suppose.
Anyway, the music page isn’t pretty, but it gets the job done. Hopefully I’ll be adding more music to it soon. Look for it under “More” on the right. Update: Look for it under “Look Around,” still on the right.
