My first atempt at a band website with drupal.

One issue I have is, the band is going to be updating the site on their own, so they need to be able to "sign in" but... Really, the average site visitor doesn't need to see the log in box. Any suggestions? I can remove it, but then the band members will have a hard time.

Dear,
Yourband,
Actually i am also not sure about solution also..

You can try by disable Login block..
Access your accounts like http://www.captainchetlawson.com/user/
for that you all band member should have to know their userid.

I am newbie......If anyone have good solution then they are welcome...

You can always go to http://www.example.com/user (no need to remember your userid) I take it one step further and I create a URL Alias for the /user page so that they can go to http://www.example.com/login which is easier to remember

I usually hide the login block and put a link to /user at the bottom of the front page. You can always hide it with css and show on hover.

Just disable the block, but add a login link :-)

Show block on specific pages:
1.Show on every page except the listed pages.
2.Show on only the listed pages.
3.Show if the following PHP code returns TRUE (PHP-mode, experts only).

check the second option, and write if you want to show the login block only on the frontpage.

you will find these seting in:
Home › Administer › Site building › Blocks
'User login' block configuration.
