Eli in March!

[Christopher Corsale]

Hi friends,

The Eli Jones train is rollin' solid in 2008! We're happy to announce more road trips (Central Illinois!!), special gigs, another radio show, new songs, and the pending arrival of new Eli gear. Busy times, people!

If you haven't heard our Java Blend performance for Iowa Public Radio, you can listen and download it at http://elijones.mypodcast.com/ - It's a great little Eli 101 session. Keep that address handy as we'll be posting more stuff there. You can also grab some live shows from www.archive.org/details/EliJones.

Our live shows have really been heating up. Here's the next round:

We'll be taping a performance for Illinoise, on WEIU 88.9FM in Charleston on the 14th as well - we'll shout it out when that's going to air. Also keep your eyes out for Eli stickers and hand-made t-shirts, which are in the works. Not to mention actual new music that we're cooking up and bringing out over the next few gigs. I told you we was busy!!

Thanks for listening - we mean that from our hearts.

Chris and the Eli gang
