We are so excited to be presenting this online fundraising concert with Ian Foster & Nancy Hynes! Having shared their 'One Week in December' concert live with us in Glen Morris last year - to a thrilled full house - we also had them back for an online show in May. But now they've put together a blockbuster Christmas presentation for us in Glen Morris which includes some special musical guests as well! We do hope you'll join us! All details from Ian are below, however, if you are not comfortable with the paypal format, we will accept etransfer to our church account - just drop a line to glenmorris.uc@gmail.com or call 519.740.7168 and we willl provide details.
Here is the ticket price suggestion and info from Ian!
"This year is different. We all know it but keep saying it. It’s different for everyone, and for us touring musicians, it means not being out on the road, performing and connecting with you.
So, this year, we decided to do something different. A livestream…but we wanted it to look and sound REALLY good. Multiple cameras,...hey, let's pre-tape it! Then we thought 'if we pre-tape, we can pick a cool location, safely invite some of our friends to perform, too... Pretty soon, we realized we were dreaming up a Digital Christmas Special: Christmas at Home with Ian and Nancy.
Shot in downtown St. John's in the taproom of Bannerman Brewery, with baby grand piano in tow, this show is a celebration of what we like to play at Christmas time, and some of the friends we'd spend it with when we normally get home for the holidays. You'll hear us, plus very special guests Jerry Stamp, Melanie O'Brien, Brian Way, and the Laing kids! There are *6* chances to watch! Why? Because we're partnering with
some wonderful venues from previous Christmas tours to present a night tailored to their audiences - even though it's pre-taped, we'll bethere for the show - on webcam before and after, and in the live chat during. We still want to connect, hear how you've been doing, and make some merry with you. The church shows are also fundraisers for important renos for those buildings and work they're doing in their communities.
Tickets are all available at ianfoster.ca/shows Look for your town, your venue, your people. Or virtually 'travel' for the show to St. John's or Lewisporte, NL, Fredericton, NB, Toronto or Glen Morris, ON, or Rockport, MA, USA. Have a friend you wish you could bring to a show who lives somewhere else this year? Pick a show, buy a ticket, and attend together.
We're still working hard to make something special during these strange times. Hope you'll join us. All ticket details at ianfoster.ca/shows."
AN IMPORTANT NOTE! Once your purchase a ticket, you'll be taken to the show page as your 'landing page' - you will need to bookmark this page to return on the day!
