Happy New Year Gang!! I know you guys felt like you were forgotten, but
you can't get that lucky.
I apologize for the delay, but the QR and STTS gigs were keeping me hopping.
Of course, as you can see from the first two ELO Newsletters, there is
quite a bit going on!! It's a great time to be a fan of QR, as well as
the band members' individual projects.
At this writing, you can see from the STTS site that The Abyss Fan Club
is alive and well. So, be sure to get in on the action. I have the latest
news posted on the STTS happenings as well.
Also, be sure to renew your QR membership as U.S. tour dates are forthcoming
very shortly!! Don't miss out on the action.
- CWE WEBSITE:
Have you been there lately? Well, there will be some changes coming
by April 1st to coincide with the kick-off on the road to our 7th
Birthday in May. So, don't miss going there and being able to have
a before and after. You don't want to miss out.
- SPEAKING OF A BIRTHDAY, HOW ABOUT A PARTY?:
If you haven't hit the CWE Message Board, there is an announcement
up about the forthcoming birthday bit!! Please go there for details
and stay tuned for forthcoming posts. More information will be forthcoming
as we take another step up the empirical stairway to seven. (I couldn't
resist.) There will be some surprises in store for you. You won't
want to miss out.
- CWE OFFICERS:
We are happy to have folks serve in helping to re-shape, re-group
and re-start not only for our birthday, but for another tour.
Drop me a line if you want to serve. If you are listed as an officer
and don't want to serve any longer, please let us know. We understand
if you can't. All of us have busy lives.
- DETRIMENTALLY SPEAKING:
As you saw in the last ELO Newsletter, our own Dennis Gaudio and Kevin
Cassiday with their band Detriment, have out a kick-butt release.
Check out their website at http://www.freewebs.com/detriment/.
I wonder if these guys would play for the birthday bash?!
HINT, HINT HINT!!
- STTS RE-VISITED :
Be sure to go there to see and read the latest. New music is forthcoming.
So, get on board the STTS bandwagon and not miss out on things. I'm
working as we speak on an exclusive interview with Scott Rock and
Damon for the fan club's newsletter, The Absolute Abyss. This will
be a fan club interview only and not posted on-line.
- A NOTE FROM MARCTAVIUS SCOTT:
Hey Colin!
Wanted to share a little news with the EMPIRE. My label NuParadigm
Music is still hanging in there. We're looking to have a distribution
deal for All Too Human in Euprope in the next couple of months, along
with a re-issue of their sophomore album. We've also just picked up
our fifth band. Anyone interested can stop by http://www.nuparadigmmusic.com.
Also, some members of Odin's Court (a band on my label) and I are
going to be at the Dream Theater show in Philadelphia on 4/2. If any
Empire members are going to be there, I'd love to hook up with them.
We're going to be handing out a NuParadigm Music Sampler after the
show. It's going to contain 10-12 songs from the bands on the label.
And it's free!
