About

Thank you for visiting Ether Site. Ether Site is a Turin Brakes fansite started in May 2003 by Stefan Meeuws. Despite long pauses between albums for the band and a social life of his own, Stefan never gave up on the website – or the band. Some may call this stupid, I call it dedication ;-) .

You’re currently viewing the 5th version of this website. The really old (first) version is still available for your viewing pleasure here. Now that brings back memories. All I used was Microsoft Paint and Notepad. See, I used my own code. But when it was time to choose between ‘a life’ and being a ‘codemaster’… I chose a life. To make everything a bit safer, I started using software. For a while I tried Movable Type. That was OK, but I was sold when I started using WordPress for other sites I made. So now this thing runs on WordPress. Isn’t that exciting?

Anyway, if you have questions, feel free to e-mail me (stefan@turinbrakes.nl). Also you could leave a comment in the guestbook, or check out the frequently asked questions.
