Matthew:

The color scheme looks pretty cool at first, until I try to read.  I 
think there is not enough contrast between the texts and the background.

Seems like this site was designed for 800x600.  But if you view it with 
640x480, the menu on the right side sits right over the singer.  Since 
the transparent images for the menu were generated with a dark 
background, they look funny when sitting over the cool guy's pale arm.

Unusual use of floating window.  When clicked on one of the menu 
choices, you open a floating window consists of the menu.  That floating 
window blocks the view of the contents.  I closed it when I saw it, then 
I realized I have killed the menu!  Oh no!  Why not just put the menu on 
the left side of the main window where you have plenty of room.

There is no obvious way to get back to the main page from the sub-pages.  
I think you meant for the viewer to select "Index" from the pull-down 
menu on the left side.  Like I said, not very obvious.

Sorry, my eyes are getting strained from looking at this site.  I'll 
stop here.
