Happy New Year, CyberEdheads (or "e-Edheads" or "Internedheads" or "Dot Eds")

Since or beloved Washington Redskins ran themselves out of playoff contention by the end of September, January kind of takes on a different meaning for your four folksters -- It's time to start giggin' and pray for some good off-season trading and draft picks. In the meantime, we'll just have to pull for the Indiasota Packriots. Go team!

By the way - December was a blast -- thanks so all the West Coasters who made our San Diego to Seattle tour feel so.... so ....... so ...... Northbound. Great times were also had in Massachussetts and the People's Republic of Virginia - a fine wrap to 2004 indeed. We toasted all of you at our annual company Christmas Party at Harry's Tap Room in Arlington, VA, which may have come out sounding like slurring mixed with a belch, but it really did come from the heart.

TONIGHT: Robbie's getting things started off right , as he takes his solo show to just outside of Philadelphia to Bryn Mawr's The Point. As a tribute to Mike's birthday, he will only be performing Mike's songs. Robbie has yet to be informed of this, so someone please let him know.
SORRY FOR THE LATE NOTICE OF THIS DATE.

The band gets things going with a run through the tropical midwest, capped off by a 2 night run at Ann Arbor's The Ark (details below).

To really get 2005 started off right, EFO returns to a favorite a hometown haunt, THE BIRCHMERE, for a three date run, January 20 - 22. The last night (Sat the 22) is already sold out, and Friday is not far behind - so don't delay. Details below

The Fourth Edhead Cruise is still set for November 3 through Nov 7, leaving from Tampa FL, sailing to Cozumel and back. Details are posted at fanclub cruises site.

ITALIA LUVS EFO
We've seen some very nice press in recent months for our 9th CD "This is Me" but all in the boring, mundane language we know as "English". Much to our delight, we miraculously scored some ink from an Italian critic with a good deal of praise. It's hard to tell. We don't know Italian. We'll assume his words are positive. That's what's so awesome about them foreign reviews. Everybody LOVES you, if you convince yourself it's so. You can read it for yourselves
http://www.lonestartime.com/editx/index.php?url_channel_id=&url_publish_channel_id=981&url_subchannel_id=1&well_id=2 Could a tour of the country shaped like a boot be far behind? Probably.

Sorry to be unusually brief, but So Much Time, and So Little to Do..... wait. Strike that. Reverse it. (courtesy of "Willy Wonka")

Note: Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither was our website. Thanks for your patience with updates.
Vomitorium Chat Room coming soon.

Have you hugged your Oompa Loompa today?
