Go fellas! :D

Oh, a little FZ news: I'll be switching hosts sometime at the start of the
month. After the switch happens...drumroll, please!...FZ will be on its own
domain again, after two and a half years on my personal webspace. :D Oh yes.

I've recently added several concert dates for the band for April and May, as
well as a reminder for the reissue of 'Skywalk to Crescent Town' under the title
'yonder'...

Which is May 5! I shall have linkage for where to buy it when the time comes.
*nods*

They'll be playing an acoustic set on XM Radio tomorrow, starting at 2 pm ET.
I'm assuming (though I'm not certain) it's Channel 87 (The Verge).

Know any Canadians with XM...who can record the session? ;)

Happy Birthday to our gorgeous, blue eyes man ... Zachary !!!!!

Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday dear Zach,
Happy Birthday to youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu,

Lalalalalalalalaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa :)

Hugs,
Kitty

Forgot to add this to the calendar; but TSO are playing *tonight* at
Rancho Relaxo in TO (300 College St. West), for a Two Way Monologues
showcase. (It's the band's first gig as Tin Star Orphans.)

http://twowaymonologues.com (they also reviewed 'Skywalk to Crescent
Town' recently)

Show starts at 9 pm with a $7 cover. They go on at 9:30. Also playing
are Ryan Masters, and Five Blank Pages.

TSO = the band you once knew as Yonder...but is now Tin Star Orphans.

OTH = the CW series 'One Tree Hill'.

TSO's song "Let You Down" will be featured in the closing credits of
this Monday's episode of 'One Tree Hill' ("Screenwriter's Blues"),
which airs at 9 pm ET/8 pm CT. If you don't get the CW, you can stream
the episode starting the following day on the CW's website (www.cwtv.com).

http://www.facebook.com/pages/Tin-Star-Orphans/56056072805

So if you're on the site, become a TSO fan. (The Yonder page is dead.
Long live (the band formerly known as) Yonder.)

Congrats to us being 9. Where did the time go?

Thanks for making this such a great group!

Nicole

I'm thinking they'll just change the name and retain all the
members/friends.

Hi Shells,

Thanks for posting the information.

Quick question - I am a member of the "Yonder" group on My Space and
Facebook. So, with the name change, will I have to re-join using the new
name, or will the old group ( pages)  just  change the name and keep me
as a member ?


Thanks,

Kitty

PS ... congratulations to Zach and the band for their record contract
and all :-)

A little blurb about the upcoming gig (and then some)...
http://www.nowtoronto.com/music/story.cfm?content=166274

Last week, Zach sent me and several of his nearest and dearest an
email regarding the band's being signed to Sparks Music and their name
change. I've an excerpt of it up (the full message will be posted
soonish)...

Happy Thanksgiving to all of my Road to Avonlea and Anne of Green Gables

*Anne of Green Gables: A New Beginning to Premiere at the Boston Film
Festival <http://www.sullivanmovies.com/news/news_details.php?id=226>

* *  The much anticipated prequel to the Anne of Green Gables
<http://www.anneofgreengables.com> movies and the fourth installment in
the film series, Anne of Green Gables: A New Beginning
<http://www.anneofgreengables.com>, will be making its North American
debut at the Boston Film Festival <http://www.bostonfilmfestival.org/>.
On Monday, September 15th 2008, the movie will be featured along with
other top international films at the event. The story will focus on many
unanswered questions raised by the prior films and give viewers insight
into what the years after leaving Green Gables had in store for Anne
Shirley.

Now a writer in her fifties, Anne looks back on her early life in an
attempt to draw inspiration. Lost beneath the floorboards of Green
Gables, secrets are discovered that illuminate the troubled childhood
and the heartbreaking sorrow of Anne's early years.

Remembering her youth, she recalls events that bring her face-to-face
with her demons. Although she had faced much cruelty and despair, she
managed to find the most unlikely friends along the way including an
institutionalized old man, a powerful businesswoman, a hopeless widow,
and a man seeking to become a father to her.

Now in its 24th year, the Boston Film Festival
<http://www.bostonfilmfestival.org/> runs from September 12th through
September 18th. With showings taking place at the Kendall Landmark
Theatre <http://www.landmarktheatres.com/>, Boston Common as well as
venues throughout the city, the festival provides the audience with a
chance to view internationally acclaimed films in a history backdrop.
This year's program will include a unique selection of feature films,
documentaries and shorts, followed by question and answer sessions after
each screening.*
