PrfctTimeOfDay Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 By this time last year we had quite a few groups announce their shows: Flanagan, Stoneman Douglas, Zydeco, Walton and others. WGI did a really good job of releasing the announcements on their site, but so far nothing has been announced. So, what do we know. . .anyone out there want to give us the inside scoop on shows for the upcoming season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elizabethtown Ind. is doing "Cold Water" by Damien Rice. That's all I know......... Cold Water. . .Fantastic selection!! I hope you can get your kids to pull the emotion from the music and put it onto the floor. If so, this is going to be one powerful show. . Side note: Damien Rice's CD 'O'. .is a masterpiece that tells the story of love, loss and hope....and it should be in everyone's collection! :-) Edited November 19, 2008 by PrfctTimeOfDay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jak Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I hear from my source that there are a lot of groups doing string quartet versions of various pop songs. Sort of a classical feel without being classical music. He's in a position to see the trends early, and that's what he's predicting for this year. There must be some group that released an album of these recently or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russian Spy Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Sacred Heart World is doing "Private Dancer: The music of Tina Turner." It sounds a lot like their "Elvis" program from last season. More of the same for 09. Ho-Hum. Yawn. Are they stuck in a time warp? That said, I really loved their "Da Vinci Code" show from 2006.
