Who Gives Kudos:

For all you youngin's out there, "Where Are They Now?" was an old Vh1 TV show that chronicled the current whereabouts regarding bands, actors, and generally (once upon a time) important people including (but not limited to) Billy Idol, Dee Snyder, & Meat Loaf. Of course, this was also back when Vh1 actually played music videos. Boy, how things change.

Since things have been quiet in ENY land for about 7 months, they wanted to give an update on just what the members have been up to since (believe it or not) people have been asking.



Bert Long (Bass Guitar) recently relocated to the Longwood, FL area where he now works for ASR Pro Events which supplies music gear, lighting setups, and sound equipment for corporate events and touring musicians. He gets to travel the state and see some great shows and organize set ups for some huge stages. Some of the company's clients include Alanis Morrisette, Black Eyed Peas, Lupe Fiasco, Blues Brothers, Macy Gray, Tony Bennett, and Fall Out Boy, among many many others.


JoAnna Leitch (Drums) is happily living in the Maitland, FL area and has recently gone back to school to further her studies.


Doug McPherson (Guitar) was married in June to his wife, Sherry, and on Wednesday, October 15th, they celebrated the birth of their daughter, Lucy McPherson! He is still living in Winter Park, FL and working at Full Sail University. Though he may have taken some time away from music, he suggests that playing and performing again somewhere down the line is not out of the question.


Wes Locher (Vocals, Guitar, Moog) lives in Winter Park, FL and also works at Full Sail University. Never being one to slow down, he spent the last 6 months writing and recording new music and will be launching a brand new band in November of 2008. He is excited for all the ENY fans to hear it and aims to be performing live shows before the end of the year. There are also plans to release a new album early next year. Wes also realizes how terrible of a joke that was. Stay tuned and he will be sure to announce when new music is available! For those in the Orlando area, you can catch Wes occasionally performing live with the rock band, Inkwell.

Once again, thanks to everyone who supported Early Next Year and they hope to see you again in their travels.


Sincerely,
Doug, Bert, Wes, & JoAnna

You mean nobody's strung out on drugs or randomly adopting Chinese babies from the comfort/convenience of a hospital bed after wrapping their Ferrari around a telephone pole upon leaving a Hollywood after party with one of their closest friends, who's dress was "accidentally" and "unfortunately" revealing a boob job gone wrong?

Boring.
