Just got back from the Elmira Maple Syrup Festival in Elmira,
Ontario, Canada. Every year we drive 200 miles to eat our way through a small Canadian town.
Imagine a five-block strip of town, blocked off and filled with shoulder-to-shoulder food tents on
both sides of the street. We ate everything from Latkes to squeaky cheese curd to Elkburgers.
Mmmm. 80,000 annual visitors can’t be wrong!

Sometime next week I’ll be sending the info for Issue
Two off to the printers. I should receive the order from Diamond during the first week of April,
and then it’ll go to press and ship to stores either just before or during the first week of May.
Keep on the lookout!
St. Pat’s Day is almost over.
Rejoice with me, my fellow Irish musicians. The green horror is nearly at an end for another year. While we’re waiting for it to
pass like a kidney stone, you can check out this picture on the Lunasa
web site (Date: 10/3/2002)of a bunch of us hanging with Sean Smyth, Cillian Vallely and Ivan Gough
(of Whirligig) after the Ark Show. We hijacked them back to a friend’s house with the promise of
beer, food and tunes. As this picture was taken, it was 4:30 am and the tunes were just getting
started. That’s me in the background, leaning on my bodhran.
Mars Import!
Mars Import now carries single issues of Vögelein. You can buy it from them
if you don’t want to buy it from me.
Little White Mouse
Since Paul Sizer did this really cute sketch of
Vögelein (see it here), I returned the favor and did him a pin up
of the gang from Little White Mouse.
He’s going to use it as filler in the back of the new LWM RETRO MIX issue. Check it out!
Worldwide!
I got fan mail from Puerto Rico. That is soooo cool.
