Greetings, Edheads On-line

Hope everyone enjoyed their Super-sized February. From late January to the end of February, we crossed our Hemisphere, and then some. You can read all about the past month in Mike's nauseatingly detailed journal account now posted on the website - http://www.eddiefromohio.com

Time to March on! In this third month of the calendar year, we'll be traveling to VA, PA, KY(OH), NY & MA
Details are listed below.

Note, the show that was cancelled due to weather in early February at Millard Auditorium in West Hartford, CT has been rescheduled for April 24 (Julie's b-day!).

ATTENTION HOMETOWN EDHEADS - Big show in Annapolis, MD on Friday, April 2

Lately, we've been asked quite often by the loyal hometown crowd when they might catch us live again. Your best bet is right around the Beltway in Annapolis, MD at our first-time-ever appearance at the prestigious Maryland Hall. This is a gorgeous performance space, already playing host to renown entertainers like David Crosby and Pam Tillis. Let's do it right and fill the seats with Edheads and show our fine neighbor, Maryland, some of that Virginia pride - EFO-style!
For ticket info, you can call the venue at Local: 410/263-5544, Baltimore: 410/269-1087, Washington area: 301/261-1553, or visit their website at http://www.marylandhall.org

ROBBIE SCHAEFER'S LIVE SOLO CD "IN THE FLESH" NOW READY FOR ORDER

With the official release date slated for March 2, Robbie's new live solo CD is already posted at Bulletproof and ready for ordering. You can't judge a CD by its cover, but here's a little 'heads up' that this cover is a winner -- Classic Robbie. On this fine, music-packed disc you'll find old EFO nuggets, some up and coming new material and some crowd pleasing covers, with nothing but the sweet strums of Robbie's Taylor and his soothing baritone along with a very enthusiastic hometown mob. 16 songs in all!
Check it out at http://www.bulletproofartists.com/onlinestore/moreinfo.cfm?Product_ID=111 You can order online, or purchase at upcoming EFO shows, after March 2.

OH MY WAMMIE!

As announced earlier, we were up for a couple of Washington Area Music Awards. On February 15, with Robbie, Julie & Mike in absentia, Eddie represented beautifully and picked up two of these coveted awards: Our fifth Best Contemporary Folk Group, and Best Contemporary Folk Album for "Three Rooms". Eddie also looked smashing on the illustrious red carpet walk, upstaging all area percussionists with his Versace attire and ubermodel escort. He even snubbed Joan Rivers and whasserface. Get off, Eddie!

EFO MUSIC & SWAG

There really is no occassion unsuitable for EFO Swag: Shirts, CDs, Lanyards, pocket-protectors (the list goes on).
