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.
