Greetings, Edheads On-line

Gearing up for Spring, EFO keeps working on a weekend-a-month pace, Julie keeps working on beating breast cancer, Robbie keeps working on his upcoming children's CD, Eddie keeps working on home studio and side projects, and Mike keeps working on Sudoku. Our big news on the horizon is that our beloved hometown Summer shed, Wolf Trap, will be having us back Thursday, August 17.
Keep abreast of advance ticket sales and details at http://www.wolf-trap.com.

Our second piece of news is that our website (eddiefromohio.com) was awarded a Wammie Award at the recent annual Washington Area Music Awards. Congratulations really goes to our fabulous designers at Lawrence Marie. Way to go, gang!

This month, we're headed to the Midwest (MI. WI & MN). Details are below. Hope you can join us, or send a distant estranged relative to come check us out.
