PROTEST THE HERO IN CORNER BROOK!

When I started organizing and promoting shows as Mr. H Presents..., I never imagined myself doing more than small events that featured local artists - and I figured I'd be perfectly content doing so. Eventually, I got to work with more established artists from St. John's as they passed through Corner Brook, and was  delighted to be giving young people a chance to see some real professionals at work. And then I heard Protest the Hero was coming to St. John's...



St. John's-based promoters Sure Fire Entertainment and Full Time Productions
announced last month they had booked Protest the Hero for a show in Corner Brook; shortly afterwards, they asked me (a west coast promoter, small though I am) to help. Naturally, I jumped at the opportunity. 

This is a band I have wanted to see for years, and to have my name on the poster  makes me a very happy guy; to be able to add Oceanic to the bill, makes me delirious. They are the last band I saw that left me speechless, and I am immensely grateful to have them travel back from Nova Scotia for the gig. 

Tickets are $15 in advance and are still available at Jennifer's (I have a batch in my pocket too). Spread the word gang...let's pack this place and show these bands what Corner Brook music fans are all about.

Jerry Stamp: A Songwriter's Showcase

Jerry is a world-class songwriter and I am very pleased to have him back for another show.  Those who came out to see him last year, on his "Boats to Barley Tour," know what a talented cat he is. 

Over the Bank (Corner Brook Regional High) and The Stringpoppers (Pasadena Academy) will open the show with sets of their own original music.

This event is open to all, but space is limited, so please come early. Though the show is free, donations to cover expenses will be graciously accepted.
