Michael Fussell, our longtime production manager, headed back to his home principality of Wales at the end of November and Ryan Nelson, who many of you know from our mail-order department, is leaving at the end of the year to go back to school. Michael will continue working with Dischord as a freelance consultant but the boys will be missed around the office. Basla Andolsun, who has been assisting Ryan with web-orders, will take over full-time once Ryan departs. Andy Gale, from the band Haram, has also been brought aboard as we reshuffle the deck and look to the future.
