Pics - by Kyle 
Hey everyone, just a quick note that I got half of my pics back, and they turned out phenominal.  I'll try to have them up by week end.  In the meantime, check out the new pics I added to hold you all off.  These pics were taken with the bands' permission in Abbotsford on August 30th, 2000 by some generic photographer. (which was ironically enough on my birthday)  Take care everyone.

Keeping with the currents - by Kyle 
Hello loyal fans of Edwin the great and company.  Check out the links section for a few new cool links.  Also I'm picking up 6 of my 12 rolls of film tommorow.  Then it'll just be a matter of scanning them.  I also have a bunch of pics submitted by Chelsea Rose taken around the Ottawa area, which even include some pics of I Mother Earth's last show with Edwin (they're shooting themselves now, and apparently thier vocal chords), which was in Montreal.  As well this week I'll have some more mp3's up.  If there is any problem with downloading the mp3's in the audio section, please email me about it.  Also I suggest you download the I Mother Earth song entitled Wrong, which is one of Edwin's best performances (in many opinions, and his own) throughout his career.  It's an unreleased track from the Scenery & Fish sessions, and was cut from the album so they could fit the interactive portion onto the CD.  Enjoy all, and keep checking back.  Thank you all for your continued support, and take care.

The Tour, Part 3 - by Kyle 
Hey guys!  Hope everyone's doing as well as I.  The shows were all awesome and the whole tour was received very well by the fans, also Templar broke some ground with their stunning performances.  Moncton was the best show in general for both bands, but like I said the whole leg was phenominal.  When I get some money, I have literally 12 rolls of film to develop.  That includes some Templar pics, behind the scenes shots, and live shots of Ed & the boys.  As well, we'll possibly soon have some streaming video of a couple songs from different shows of the tour, and that Magic Carpet Ride in MP3 that I promised as well.  Anyway, that's all for now, take care everyone.

The Tour, Part 2 - by Kyle 
Sunday.  Always hard to... haha just kidding.  I am back from basically half of the eastern tour, resting up today for the rest of the shows.  The Wolfville, Antigonish and Halifax shows went great.  Wolfville was pretty full, great sound, normal setlist and loud fans.  Antigonish had a slightly smaller crowd because of Monday being Midterms for them.  The fans were very into the show as well.  A few interesting things happened at this show.  First and foremost, Ed & the boys added the song "Amazing" back into the setlist.  The catch is, its the new and improved version of Amazing, what we call, Amazing (Dark Version).  The guitars in the song are very almost Nine Inch Nails ish, and its gone over very very well.  As well some jerk in the crowd thought he'd be cool and during the whole performance of One More Astronaut gave Edwin the finger.  At the end of the song Edwin more or less (edited) told him to get his a** up on stage and tell him to his face what he has to say, because he'd be the perfect candidate for a beating.  It's too bad every show has to have some kind of a jerk to try to ruin it for everyone.  The disturbance was basically put in his place and kicked out by our Production Manager friend.  Aside from that the show went well.  Halifax was insanity.  1400 college students, going out of their minds.  Huge crowd response, insanity at its best, and by far the best show of the tour.  A similar incident occured (as in the Antigonish show) when a fan proceeded to pelt Edwin with a quarter.  Aside from that guy, 1399 people went home in awe.  Amazing (Dark Version) is now a part of the normal setlist and everyone in the crew and band is having a great time.  Well, I guess that's all for now, check back Tuesday for another update.  Take care everyone.

Hello again!  http://www.edwinalive.net is now functional!  Lovin' every minute of it.  The audio section has expanded, lots of more live Edwin related stuff in there, go get the mp3s while you can!  Also thought I'd let you all know that I'm heading out to the Edwin shows, hope to have lots of new sh*t for you guys on the site.  As well I just wanted to inform you all that I now have an FTP site, so there'll be gigs upon gigs of Edwin related LIVE mp3's after the eastern leg.  Well I'm off, take care and post in the message forum for gods sake! 

P.S.. Check out this pic and this one of my brother holding up the actual Shortcut To Moncton sign located in between Fredericton and Moncton (in which the song is named after.  The sign fell down and we picked it up and got pics before the city workers most likely took it and killed it, as it's a pretty old sign).  For all of you unaware people, Shortcut to Moncton is track number 7 on I Mother Earth - Scenery & Fish, which is one of Edwin's best performances ever (I'll get the mp3 up).

Updates - by Kyle 
Hello everyone.  New tour date in the tour section.  I am going to all of the shows east of Montreal, so expect pics, new rare audio, reviews and lots.  As well the plan is that Edwin will quite possibly be performing a new song from his upcoming album during the Eastern Canada shows.  The song was co-written with Jack Blades (And You) and is definetly a rocker.  Also official word says that Edwin will be co-writing with some interesting songwriters for the new album, including Tom McKay from Joydrop.  As well rumor says possible producers include Jeff Martin.  Very high prospect, but time will tell.  Until after the Eastern leg of the tour, take care all!

Updates - by Kyle 
Hello everyone.  Hope you're all doing well.  Just got word, Edwin East Coast tour dates, 2nd - 3rd week of October.  Which as well probably means Ontario/Quebec dates in between now and then.  Fear not, I'll keep you posted.  As well thanks to (the man himself) Edwin and some kick ass fans across the country, we have lots of new pics on the way.  Getting rid of our old crappy ones, moving on to professionality my friends, get ready to rock.  Until then, look for more audio, as well as the signed Chart Magazines (signed by Ed /w him on cover) being given out in the next few weeks.  I suggest everyone to keep checking back for your chance to win one of those, and a couple Edwin stickers to kick as well.  Until then, take care everyone!

Landmark - by Kyle 
Hello all.  It just dawned on me this evening that Edwin Alive - Through The Void, is nearing the 100,000 hits mark.  My page has been going strong since February because of great people like yourselves being interested on the Edwin front.  I'd just like to formally thank you all for being so wonderful and supportive since day one.  On top of it all, the site wouldn't be anything without you guys.  So keep checking back, especially for more pics from the current tour, being submitted by the man himself.  That's all for now everyone, thanks so much, and have a great week.

* Any west coasters, keep your eye open and your guard high for people 'posing' as official west coast photographers affiliated with Edwin.  On the other hand, if you would like to be one, feel free to email me and we'll hook something up.  Take care.

Pictures - by Kyle 
Hello everyone!  I'm not sure if any of you were at the Kelowna show or not, but those of you who were would know this already.  At one point in the show, Edwin mentioned to the crowd, "I hope you all have cameras, because I have this website Edwin Alive that really needs pictures...".  Very cool, personal thanks to Edwin for the plug, as well for the picture bit.  Can't wait for the pics.  All of the pictures in our pics section will be taken down very shortly as a result of a certain person who can have their useless pictures.  The whole Edwin camp as well as a few affiliates I have with the site are working very hard to take pictures for the site.  If there are any people on the West Coast of Canada (or anywhere else) who would like to take pictures for the site, feel free to drop me a line.  That's all for now guys, take care, and lots of new stuff on the way.

Audio - by Kyle 
My crazy fast internet is paying off for us all.  Check the audio section now.  Lots of mp3's with many more to come, keep in mind that was all in one shot, so lots coming definetly.  As well I just realized the mp3 of Theories (Acoustic) was all screwed up, and its all good now.  Go download 'em now, some of the best Edwin performances available are there.  That's all for now everyone, take care.

* Keep in mind, the downloads portion of tripod is being really moody, and is at times not working.  Therefore if you try to download a song and it just keeps loading and loading but not prompting to save to disk, try again later.  Thanks everyone.

The Princeofpound - by Kyle 
I just thought I'd let you all know, that Christian Simpson (most obviously Edwin's drummer), is filling in for Moist's drummer Paul for their show next week in Montreal.  Apparently Paul has hurt his back and is sitting out a few shows.  Lay the smackdown Chris!
