Hey everyone,  We had a great week with FlyLady Marla Cilley and her husband
Robert Cilley here in St. George, UT. We crammed a lot of things into only a few
days. So here is the big news. We are going to be adding a new group to the big
tent web-site.  Eventually you will all be recieving these e-mails from big tent
instead of yahoo.  Jonathan, The FlyLady personal Trainer and Leanne, the dinner
Diva have already moved their groups to big tent.  It is a very interactive fun
site that we will all be able to have fun with.  I will tell you more about it
later but you can get a free profile at http://www.bigtent.com  Also we will
have our cinco de mayo radio show tomorrow (Tuesday) at 7pm mst
http://www.blogtalkradio.com/ericdodgemusic  We are also having fun on twitter

Eric

Hey Friends,  this Tuesday night we will be canceling our radio show.  Marla
Cilley, The FlyLady is coming to Southern Utah with her husband Robert. They
will just be landing at the airport at that time.  We will be picking them up so
we have to cancel the show.  Sorry about that but we will be sure to let you
know if we put one together while Marla is here.  It will be a quick trip and
there is much to show Robert so we may not have time.  Join us on facebook for
all the fun we have been having.  Also find me on twitter and myspace as well as
youtube.  We are starting to use Twitter more. It is also kind of fun.
Thanks
Eric

PS,  Andy still has 2 openings for guitar lessons.  E-mail him at
anddodge@...  He as had a bunch of people sign up and it is exciting to
watch him teach people to play.

Hey there,  so this has been an interesting week.  Thanks for helping make last
Tuesday really cool for me.  Next week I am expecting a surprise quick visit
from Robert and Marla (FlyLady) on their way back from California.  I am really
looking forward to showing Robert some of the places that I like to expolore. 
He is an outdoor nerd like me and can walk as fast as I can.  If they make it in
time to be on our next weeks radio show I will have them say hi to you all. 
Tonight we are going to talk about ideas for our remainder of the year.  We are
looking at doing a new album at the end of this year and beginning of next year
depending on feedback and album sales this summer.  If you have any great ideas
on how we can continue to grow please come on the show tonight and share them. 
Some great news I shared on my facebook page was yesterday my sister Emily Dodge
Stam was able to get her Masters Degree diploma while she has been home on bed
rest with a rough pregnancy. She has had to take the last 4 months of the school
year off from being a teacher without pay.  She was able to complete all her
classes online with her computer while she has been home.  I bring this up
because so many people are in rough situations and struggleing not knowing what
to do. She was able to take a down time and turn it into something good.  We all
have that ability.  See you all tonight at 7pm MST follow this link
http://www.blogtalkradio.com/ericdodge
Thanks again and join me on facebook
Eric

Congratulations to Joeseph Bott on the Logo win.  He submitted several ideas
that he came up with. The winning logo is based around the old Dodge city
sheriffs badge from the 1800's and 2 old colt 45 six shotters. It turned out
really good.  Thank you all for sending the ideas. We may be able to use several
of them for different ideas.  This has been a really fun contest. You can expect
to see more to come.  We are looking at the possibility of giving away a free
back yard concert to one of our lucky friends but there may have to be some
rules based on how far we travel.  I will let you know more later.
Thanks

Hey Everyone,  We are having some excellent logo ideas come through.
Thank you so much. Lets keep it up.  Let me explain this logo contest
to you a little more.  We need to keep it simple.  Some of you have
gone above and beyond and they are amazing.  Picture a simple Leter or
a simple symbol on the side of a tour bus or on the back of a t-shirt.
You can submit as many ideas as you want so keep the thoughts flowing.
Send your ideas to management@...


Here is your challenge for this weekend. While you are doing your 15
minutes of decluttering the FlyLady way, listen to some music that
makes you feel better about life.  Your house will look cleaner and
your attitude will be better because of it.  We all need to take a
little time each day to think uplifting thoughts. Start taking 15
minutes everyday of thinking about what you want out of life and use
good uplifting music to achieve this. Declutter your living quarters
and declutter your mind and I promise you will feel better and achieve
more.  It only takes 15 minutes a day to achieve anything you want.
Eric

wort and have anxiety problems sometimes.  Anyway here is the scoop.

We need to design a new Eric Dodge logo. This logo needs to revolve
around my name or something.  We used to use a circle with ED in the
middle but I am getting away from the ED logo and want something hip

letter E but its your creativity.  I am asking all of you to get your
friends and family involved.  You need to be a member of our yahoo

See Below

Dear Friends;

Here is my email from Eric. Eric and I were brainstorming today about
his music. This idea came to us.

Hi Marla, that was an awesome suggestion. Andy and I were really
excited over the weekend about talking about our future plans. After
talking with you and bouncing ideas around this one was awesome.

We want to make a Favorites Collection CD!! It would have many of our
favorite already released songs on 1 cd and then some bonus songs
that
Andy and I love to do live at our concerts.

I would need some help from our friends. We need to narrow down the
list of songs to the very very best. Can I ask the help of our ladies
to vote for their favorite songs. We will probably need 10 or 11 of
these. Also If it is possible I would like to ask them to join our
yahoo group. We want to continue bouncing ideas and want to include
as many of our friends as possible. I could really use all your help
at this time.

Eric

I took a few minutes tonight an made this survey for us. It was fun
for me!

Here is a link to the survey.

http://budurl.com/EricBestSongsSurvey

Here is the one question on the survey

Help Eric pick the song's for his Best of Eric Dodge CD. He will be
choosing your favorites. I could not figure out any other way to set
this up. You have 24 songs to pick from. You can pick one song in
each
row. Each Song is in a column.

Join his Yahoo and FaceBook Group to get the latest news about this
Survey.

Hey Everyone,  I have a very interesting contest for you.  This will
only apply to the locals pretty much or the Utah based friends of
ours.  A few years back we performed with SheDaisy in Cedar City,
Utah.  I was contacted today by our drummer at the time Dave Olson.
He performed an amazing drum solo in the middle of that show.  I
know there were several people filming the show.  He wants to see if
anyone has that solo on film and will pay $50.00 for anyone who can
get him a copy of it on dvd or something.  Please let me know and if
you know anyone who may have filmed it let us know.  You can e-mail
me at ericdodge@... if you have any info.
Thanks
