~That lyric from "Woman of Faith", the opening song from last night's show, 
was certainly appropriate since that I what I was doing. I couldn't help it. 
Seeing them onstage for the first time in many months, I was so happy I could 
barely contain myself. There were a lot of times during the night where I 
felt chills, even though the place was quite warm and I was wearing a 
sweatshirt.~
ok, now, as per usual, i shall add y 2 cents{or...let's face it, it's usually 
like, -5- cents  *grin*}

well, before beginning -my- review, i must send a shout-out to say 'hi 
lauren!!! it was nice meeting you saturday night and i'm sorry i didn't get 
to talk to you more!!'

we, too, sat with a group of people who had seen the band before, but looked 
at us like we had 2 heads when we told them about the 'edheads'.  i kid you 
not; the one guy said to they guy next to him 'they're 'EDheads....  they are 
on an edhead -list-  they -follow- the band places and TRAVEL to see them.'  
man, way to make you feel like a freak for appreciating great music! 

across from us sat 2 EFO virgins, but ones we didn't know.  the woman felt 
she had seen them a few years back at a new year's thing at the marriott, but 
wasn't sure, and asked if she had made the right decision by stopping by the 
box office before the show and buying 2 tickets that someone had turned back 
in.  ok....can we say -mistake- asking ME that question ???  she got a HUGE 
pitch for the band, the cruise, etc.  poor woman....

seeoooooooo<mike ford from moxy fruvous quote>.......

the setlist~

woman of faith
loitering in the lobby
number six driver
minnesota 1945
continents  of time
hey little MEN{which, btw, ends with 'let your mama get some sleep 
tonight...whoa...yeah!!!}
quick
fly south
observation
the three fine daughters  of farmer brown{or the 'crouching joe, hidden 
murphy' number}
train song
great day
~~intermission~~
great day
step into the outside
1,000 sarahs
atlantic
fruited plain
oh my brother
eddie's solo{which, yes...was AMAZING..which is not new..but...man!!!  he was 
on -fire- that night!!}
irish dream
eddie's concubine
candido
~~encore~~
old dominion{which was more fun than one should -have- on a saturday 
night...and the guy who commented about the edhead list said to care 'wait a 
muinute; you're from MD and she's from PA~~why are -you- cheering???'   
*grin*  silly human!}
operator
~~2nd encore~~
down to the river to pray

ok......now..a few highlights/things you should know about saturday night.  
pay attention; you -may- be quizzed on this later!!

~trust robbie's 'vibe's when he says it's gonna be a great show;  the man has 
FABULOUS instincts!!!

~julie gained regal status during the maternity leave and is now 'dame julie 
murphy wells', though mike -did- point out that that's kinda derogatory..like 
'broad fergie' or 'bimbo di'.  

~mike also informed us that he tested a theory he had and you -can- remove 
your card  SLOWLY at 'pay at the pump and it still works, even though it 
instructs you to 'remove your card quickly'.  what a rebel.  :)

~robbie said that they wanted to do 'free bird', but it turned out to be too 
hard to play.

~this is "the EFO 'up yours!' tour~sadistic folk!!"

~though the deadline has passed, they have opened up 10 more cabins for the 
cruise.  come on, people...join the merry throng!!!  

~factoring into your decision re: the above statement should be mike's plan 
for he and joe to lead an excursion into the town of nassau for corn rows.  

~julie and mike make -great- shadow puppets!

~contrary to popular belief{which i can -never type or say without hearing it 
to the 'gravity' tune...}it is not julie's sister that joins her first on the 
'down to the river to pray' vocals; it's mike.  and he's -not- a girl.  he's 
an Irish tenor!


oh..and by the way...those 2 EFO virgins that were sitting across from us?  
when they left, she said "see you at the next show!!"  yay!  we converted 2 
more edheads!! 

on my way back home to PA last night, i tuned my radio to some random station 
and found a FOLK SHOW!!{which turned out to be 'detours' on 89.7, WTMD in  
towson, MD}  they gave their phone number, so i called in to request some 
EFO.  i talked to the DJ who said that he usually carried them, but didn't 
bring a disc with him, but he'd check..they should have them on file.  we 
talked about the band and i told him the show rocked and such.  a little 
while later, they announced that they 'crapped out on a request; someone had 
called in and requested EFO, but they didn't have any in the station library' 
 *gasp*  they must -so- make sure that's adjusted!  all of the  shows they 
were announcing at the venues they announce shows -at-, they SHOULD have and 
should be playing EFO!!  dammit!!!  word!!!

ok....there y'all go!  enjoy!  

and seeeeeeooo..basically..in summary...the band is SO back!!!!  they are 
fierce and should not be missed.  go to the website.  check out the dates.  
do what you can to share the magic of the 'up yours' tour.  *grin*  you'll be 
glad you did.

   Thanks to Shelly for filling us in.  Now, instead
of feeling SO SAD for not being there, I only feel
slightly bummed.  Why is New Mexico so far from the
east coast anyway?  Maybe the better question is why
is an edhead like me living here in New Mexico?
  Keep the comments and reviews coming.  We love to
hear all about it.  Kind of feels like I was there!:)
