I suppose you can cookie the splash page so that when someone gets to it the first time, they get the splash and not the next time.

I like splash pages because many people come to a page from search engines and may not know exactly what it is about. If you have a main page with a few dozen links, it may be daunting. A splash page with reduced links and a message would help someone figure out whether they want to go further. Plus you can put up something which has more dramatic effect than on a main page which is for information.

Yeah. I appreciate your guy's suggestions, but I think i'm keeping it. The main reason is because i'll probably end up doing a flash intro type thing with a song of theirs, and that will go there...
