His rates and terms are fully disclosed and very, very reasonable… so this is your chance to get Andy in your town, maybe even in your home, for a performance you won’t soon forget.

So, if you want the chance to get a fantastic piece of art for your wall, use one of the forms below to make your purchase.

8″x12″ print:

Signed or Unsigned?

Unsigned $30.00 Signed $45.00

11″x14″ standout:

Signed or Unsigned?

Unsigned $100.00 Signed $150.00

You can choose the CD for $12, or MP3 downloads for $9.

Choosing Sides contains nine tracks, some of which will be familiar to those who have heard Andy play them in concerts over the past year:

1. I’m On Your Side
2. She Finds A Way
3. Swing Wide The Glimmering Gates
4. The Arms of Love
5. Waiting
6. Rest
7. Without You
8. I Thank God For You
9. What I Know Now

There’s also a rumor that Andy will have the discs along for sale on the BtLOG tour this month, so if you’re lucky enough to get to see him there, buy one! (Lincoln, NE tonight!)

Once I get my hands on a copy of the CD I’ll get the Song Vault updated with lyrics and supporting info.

Presuming, you know, you don’t see Andy on the Behold the Lamb of God tour.

Sure, it’s nice that Andy is giving away his EP for free. [He would tell you that we're nice for footing the bandwidth bill.] Over 1,000 downloads have happened so far.

That said, I’m betting that there haven’t been 1,000 donations to Andrew. If there had, I’m sure I would have gotten an excited phone call from Andy or Ali.

I’m not asking that you give him $1,000. I’m not even asking that you give him $25. I’m just asking that you give him something, a financial thank-you that says, “Hey, I appreciate what you’re doing here, man.” Maybe you’ve been to one of Derek’s shows lately and heard his schpiel about how venues’ love language is bar sales; I’m pretty sure that, in this case, Andy’s love language is LttEv2 donations.

And if not for Andy, do it for the girls:

[Please note: Andrew didn't put me up to this. He's probably kinda mad at me for doing it. I will tell him to go suck an egg if he expresses this to me.]

Highlights: Andy O talks with Andrew Peterson about AP’s The Far Country, how Andy O’s life “generally smells better” after he got married, and then finally they discuss this all-important question: if one of the Square Pegs were the final Cylon on Battlestar Galactica, which Peg would it be?

No word from Andy yet on how regular this podcast will be, but for the Andy Osenga fans out there it’ll be worth the wait each time.

Some new features on the site: photos to download, opportunity to post reviews of Andy’s albums, videos, an RSS feed of tour dates, and, coming up next week… a podcast. Andy’s been hinting at how cool this podcast will be for months now, and I’m getting tired of waiting around. Bring it, dude!

One thing to pay attention to at the moment: the website address has changed. You’ve gotta head to www.andyosenga.com to get to the new site. If you’re subscribed to his blog, you’ll probably need to re-subscribe to the new feed. Hopefully they’ll get some redirection set up soon.

So anyway, head on over and take a look. The site looks great.

Oh, and last but certainly not least: there’s a new AO song on the site media player, called What I Know Now. On first listen, I like it. As AO told us on his blog a few weeks ago, it’s a little more pop and a little less Radiohead, but hey, it’s good stuff. Take a listen and let me know what you think.

The show is at 7 pm (doors open at 6:30) and it’s $8 at the door. Well worth it to hear this trio of songwriters. If you haven’t heard Jeremy or Eric before, well, shame on you. And then come to the show.

I’ll be driving over from Iowa to see the show. Leave a comment if you’re gonna attend – I’d love to meet you there!
