  • Mccartney Tickets Won't Go for Half Price
    Print this Article Page 1 of 2 CLOSE WINDOW Published: 2009-07-07 McCartney tickets won’t go for half price By AMY SMITH Staff Reporter Paul McCartney fans hoping for half-price tickets for this Saturday’s concert in Halifax are going to be out of luck, says the promoter. There were a number of deals offering two tickets for the price of one in the final days before last month’s Bon Jovi concert at Magnetic Hill in Moncton, which attracted about 33,000 fans. And before last weekend’s Virgin Festival in Halifax became a free event, promoters said those who had bought a ticket could bring a friend for free. About 10,000 showed up for that event. But Greg Cox of Power Promotional Events said Monday there were no deals in the works to buy one ticket and get one free for this concert. (His firm was not involved in either the Bon Jovi concert or Virgin Festival.) "I am not aware of anything (like that)," he said in an interview Monday. He said Coke Zero is offering two adult tickets, two tickets for children under 12 and some Coke promotional product for $250, plus service charges. The promoter said there are plenty of reasons to catch the show — Sir Paul’s only Canadian performance this year. "Paul McCartney at 67 is not likely going to make it back to Halifax again," Mr. Cox said. "There’s too many other places in the world that he’s never played that he would like to play.

    HHB Communications Canada Limited In conversation with Joel Plaskett anada has produced some of the world’s most enduring songwriters Cand Joel Plaskett is hailed as one of the best. With countless awards, thousands of tour dates and numerous recording and producing projects under his belt, Plaskett remains one of the most innovative and prolific artists on the scene today. Inspired by a high demand for his ears as a producer, Joel rang in 2013 with the completion and launch of his new recording studio, New Scotland Yard. Since the opening, Joel has put his mark on the recordings of Sarah Slean, Al Tuck, David Myles, Steve Poltz, and most recently, buzz act Mo Kenney. In 2014, he continues to amass production credits with several projects already on the schedule – including a new record of his own. Congrats on your recent ECMA nomination for Producer of the Year!! Are you excited about being nominated? Thanks! Yeah, I'm super excited. I've been doing more and more producing and it's nice to get a nod in that arena. Although I still feel like I have a lot to learn. You are not only a producer but also celebrated live artist as well. Is it hard to find a balance between being on the road and in the studio? They are two different worlds. I built New Scotland Yard so I could have place to work from that is close to home when I'm not touring. Going elsewhere to make records involved me being away for too long. My family is really important to me and although I'm a workaholic.

  • Turtle Rock Guitar Book 5.Pdf
    Preface to the 5th Edition This book and the Guitar Club that went with it started because one of my old counsellors put a few guitar chords into the official camp song book. Those chords were the reason I learned to play. That summer, when we were last-year campers, regular activities were cancelled one day because of stormy weather. We all piled into the lodge, where we sat with Ryley and her guitar, singing all afternoon. It was the first time a lot of us had ever sung our favourite camp songs with a guitar. At the time, I'd never even heard recordings of most of them. (This is before Napster, kids.) I remain ever thankful that we didn't play Rainy Day Bingo that afternoon. At the end of the summer I started writing in chords for the rest of the song book, which gradually led to the first edition of The Mi-A-Kon-Da Guitar Book. Since then, this book's seen a few new places and met a lot of new songs. It seemed about time to give it a name that would bring everything and everyone together. Turtle Rock does just this. On Birch Island, it's where the whole camp meets after lights out on Mi-A-Kon-Da night to sing quiet songs by the fire, listen to the camp legend, and watch the full moon rise over the lake. It's also where we meet for special cook-outs, reflections, and early in the morning to watch that bittersweet Last Sunrise of the Summer.
