I have this project band called Carl Nivris that is focused on original tunes that are all variations on a single theme, all instrumental. It's the same lineup as the Franklin Brothers Band, but the music is unique.  We played at the St. Patricks Day Parade party in New London on March 17th. A few friends grabbed the video cameras and we got an audio feed from the sound board. We threw it all together and came up with a couple good tunes. Here's the last tune we played that night, Tubal Litigation. Shot in DV video and encoded with Silverlight.

How can we put LINQ to SQL, LINQ to Entities and classic multi-tiered design all into a larger context? What's the right strategy for your data access needs? Scott's got questions and Rocky's got opinions.
