An "Eddie From Ohio" video

If these guys aren't my favorite band, they're darn close.

From Wikipedia ('cause I am too lazy to write it myself) for the uninitiated:

"Eddie From Ohio (or often just EFO) is an American folk band. Formed in 1991 in Northern Virginia, the band has achieved considerable local success, winning four Wammies (Washington, D.C. area music awards) and a nationwide following, all outside the purview of major record labels. Name notwithstanding, the band is not from Ohio. A college friend of Hartness's coined the nickname for him, by analogy with the lead singer of fIREHOSE, Ed 'From Ohio' Crawford."
