Announcement 1-7-00

 

Happy New Year from the Ellis Paul camp!

We have our plates full this year with some pretty amazing projects.  The first bit of great news is that Ellis' long awaited "Live" record, a 2 CD set, will be in stores on March 14th!!  It captures the magic of Ellis' live show, showcasing both new and old favorite songs...some never recorded before. The interaction on stage with his friends Vance Gilbert, Patty Griffin, and Chris Trapper (The Push Stars) is amazing.   There are great bits of humor and spoken word that will blow you away.   Pre-release ordering info will follow at a later date...

Come Memorial Day you can hear Ellis' song "The World Ain't Slowin' Down" in the new Jim Carrey and Rene Zellweger movie, "Me, Myself and Irene."  This song is the feature song of the movie!  This amazing Hollywood opportunity came about because the Farrelly Brothers -- who have written, produced, and directed the blockbuster releases "Dumb and Dumber" and "There's Something About Mary" -- are big Ellis Paul fans.  Peter Farrelly has gone so far as to call Ellis Paul a "national treasure" in a recent interview.  Ellis' song will be on the big major label soundtrack to the film along with those of his close personal friends The Goo Goo Dolls, The Offspring, Third Eye Blind, Smash Mouth, The Push Stars, Ben Folds Five, and others.  Yes, my friends, this is a bit of great news.  Now you can tell your friends... I told you so...!

Finally, we are getting the website looking better than ever, and we need your input on this front.  Please send in photos of the hometown venue where you see Ellis play, the "Welcome to My Town USA" sign that greets you upon entering your city, or the I-40 East sign that's in your rearview mirror.  We're going for a "road" feel and want to represent all parts of the country.  Email your photo to info@ellispaul.com or mail it to Ralph Jaccodine Management, P.O. Box 381978, Cambridge, MA  02238.  If we use your photo on the website, we'll send you some Ellis "extras."  The sooner, the better.

Hollywood will help Ellis' career significantly, but the word-of-mouth reviews and enthusiasm that so many of you are responsible for are helping spread Ellis' music faster than ever.  Thanks for your enthusiasm for these songs.  As always, I am available for your comments or ideas...

Best Regards,
Ralph Jaccodine
Manager

>>>> Put A Dynamic Ellis Paul Link on Your Website ! - http://www.ellispaul.com/infolink.php3

Attention, Serious Ellis Paul fans !

With a few easy steps, you can put a dynamic Ellis Paul link on your own website and share the Ellis Paul experience with any visitor to your web page !

STEP #1 : Copy the following line of HTML :

<img
src="http://www.ellispaul.com/images/ellis_link.jpg" border="0"
alt="Click here for the Ellis Paul website">

Step #2 : Open the source code view (the view that looks like all text) of your web page in your favorite web page editor (relax, it's not so hard !!), and paste the line into an appropriate area of your web page (although anywhere between the body tags will work, we recommend somewhere near the top or bottom of your page).

Step #3 : Upload your edited web page to your web server. While you won't see the graphic link in the preview view of a WYSIWYG web page editor (some WYSIWG editors will show a blank graphic, which you can then move around to a more desirable location), you WILL see the graphic when it's viewed over the web in a web browser .

WHAT WILL IT DO ?

A graphic will appear on your web page - when your visitors click on this graphic, the Ellis Paul home page will open up in a new window ! We'll update the graphic from time to time with
updated pictures and the latest Ellis Paul news, and you won't have to do a thing. It's a great way to do your part to support the growing Ellis Paul community !
