Dan Fogelberg Tribute November 15th

It hit me today that I hadn’t posted about this show on my own blog!
Connections has a show coming up this coming weekend:

Connections Band
Tribute to the Music of Dan Fogelberg
November 15th, 7 pm
Northaven UMC

Dallas TX

It should be a good one…

Our beneficiary will again be “Nothing But Nets.”

A few fun facts about this show:

— This will be our final show of the year.
— It is a favorite of the band’s because it was our very first show ever.
— We will feature two new songs “Tell Me to My Face,” and “Phoenix” that we’ve only done once before (At Lovers Lane)
— We may have other special surprises that night, even if you’ve seen this show before (Can’t say just yet…)

In addition, we’ll do your favorite Dan songs:

“Leader of the Band”
“Longer”
“Same Ol’ Lang Syne”
” Run for the Roses”
“Heart Hotels”
“There’s a Place in the World for a Gambler”

For those of you who don’t think you know Dan’s music, click here and listen to some soundclips of the above songs.
You’ll say “Oh…I know that!” several times.

The set also includes many other great, but lesser known, Dan Fogelberg songs.

You won’t want to miss it! We do not know when we’ll be scheduling this show again. (Probably at some point, but nothing on the schedule now…)

We have marvelous crowds at both Spring Valley and Suncreek churches. And just last night, we took the show to the clergy retreat up at Tanglewood Retreat Center on Lake Texoma. For the second year in a row, we had a GREAT time with our clergy colleagues.

We’re pleased to be able to say that our totals from the two church shows will be more than $ 4, 600!!!

God is good, and we are grateful.

Hope to see you on the 15!
