Greetings, Edheads On-line

Thanks to all who joined us in our half month of shows in April, and especially for the warm birthday wishes for our Julie this past Saturday up in Hartford, CT. Robbie's journal account of our Midwest swing is presently posted on the homepage - http://www.eddiefromohio.com.

May is gonna be a rocker -- with a couple of dates in upstate NY and Western MA. We're also excited to get back to our state capitol of Richmond for an outdoor show on Thursday, May 6 (details below). For the fourth year in a row, we'll return to one of our favorite spots: Lime Kiln in Lexington, VA - only this time it'll be earlier - May 22. It's always a great time.

EFO HEADS INTO THE STUDIO AT MONTH'S END

With a fat list of new songs, we're heading into the studio to get started on EFO CD Number 9 (number 9... number 9..). As recently as last week, we've been woodshedding a half dozen new songs - some of which may even make their way into upcoming live EFO shows -- all the more reason not to miss us when we come near your town.

ROBBIE SCHAEFER'S HOMETOWN CD RELEASE AT JAMMIN' JAVA MAY 14 & 15
MICHAEL CLEM TO OPEN ON FRIDAY

Only out for a about a month, Robbie's CD "In the Flesh" has been moving briskly at shows and on line, not to mention getting spins from folk DJs throughout the country. To celebrate its release, Robbie is bringing the show back to the fine venue where it was recorded: Jammin Java in Vienna, VA. Friday will feature a short opening set from Mike (his first solo performance since 1984). Don't wait until 2024 to see him again. He's on a cicada-like cycle.
Check out more about "In the Flesh" at http://www.bulletproofartists.com/onlinestore/moreinfo.cfm?Product_ID=111
You can order online, or purchase at an upcoming EFO show.
