October 1, 2008 - October 8, 2008
Please read this article about how the Current Rising Costs and
overall Economy is affecting the touring bands and venues:
(http://idolator.com/5054540/hurricanes-and-opec-to-bands-dont-tour).
(Thanks
to Hopeforagoldensummer for sharing their expenses spreadsheet).
Come out to
the shows if you can, while there's still plenty of good music to be heard and
experienced live.
Please support the acts and those who bring these
concerts to you.
"He who hears music, feels his solitude peopled at
once." ~ Robert Browning
