EDF Photo // Also coming soon!

Along with the site’s official opening tomorrow (I’m excited!), I will be launching EDF Photo – edseldopefan.org’s photo archive. As we want to be a complete resource for you here at EDF, we think it’s important to provide you as much media and info as possible on our icon.

Have you taken a photo with Edsel at a show? Would you like your work displayed on EDF.org? Send me a mail to cristinaswg@gmail.com with any donations for the site. Please include the proper means to credit you with any donations you send. There’s a few things I will not accept:

  • Candids (non performance photos Edsel did not know you were taking.) This is basically no different from paparazzi snaps, and we have a policy against those types of photos.
  • Any other images or donations that might violate his privacy.
  • Any images that you do not own the copyright of. (This is fairly easy to verify)

That’s it really! Just simple rules to respect Edsel. Reach out if you would like to donate!

Official Opening: May 4th

Hello! I am proud to announce the grand opening of Edsel Dope Fan will be … May 4th! What better way to celebrate an icon than opening on an iconic day? The Star Wars nerd in me can’t help but say May the 4th be with us!

Though I’ve had to navigate some unexpected delays, I’m back on track now! (This is why I don’t usually give deadlines.) I think the few extra days are really going to be worth it. I don’t want to open the site fully if I don’t really believe I’m giving the best to Edsel and his fans. The extra time is really going to go a long way with that.

I hope you’re as excited as I am for the launch. I’ll see you then!

Site Update

Hello hello! I’ve given the site a bit of a refresh with a new theme – you like?

The full experience on the site is still being worked on behind the scenes, but everything is going well. I’m not confident on putting an exact ETA on when we’ll be up and open, but I’m shooting for at the latest the end of April.

Thank you for your patience while I work on the site, and as always keep checking back as we’ll still be updating with news as it comes to my attention!

Rise of the Machine tour: VERY limited tickets!

Dope has announced via their official Facebook page that the Grand Rapids leg of the Rise of the Machine tour is now sold out. Tickets are very limited for the rest of the dates, so if Dope is coming to your city, now is the time to catch them! You can find out more about the Rise of the Machine tour right here on Dope’s official website.

Speaking as a long term fan of Dope, I’m genuinely thrilled to see how pumped people are about them on this tour, along with the awesome reaction to the new album!

We were also treated to a new live photo with this post. A stunning one of Edsel! (We love to see it! <3 he’s the entire reason for this site, after all!) View the photo here – as of this writing, it has 443 reactions. We can do better than that, right? Right! Like or love that photo, let’s see how high we can go! And while you’re there, if you aren’t already following Dope on Facebook, you know what you must do…
