    80sX Let’s face it, the 1980’s were responsible for some truly horrific crimes against fashion: shoulder-pads, leg-warmers, the unforgivable mullet ! What’s evident though, now more than ever, is that the 80’s provided us with some of the best music ever made. It doesn’t seem to matter if you were alive in the 80’s or not, those songs still resonate with people and trigger a joyous reaction for anyone that hears them. Auckland band 80sX take the greatest new wave, new romantic and synth pop hits and recreate the magic and sounds of the 80’s with brilliant musicianship and high energy vocals. Drummer and programmer Andrew Maclaren is the founding member of multi platinum selling band stellar* co-writing mega hits 'Violent', 'All It Takes' and 'Taken' amongst others. During those years he teamed up with Tom Bailey from iconic 80’s band The Thompson Twins to produce three albums, winning 11 x NZ music awards, selling over 100,000 albums and touring the world. Andrew Thorne plays lead guitar and brings a wealth of experience to 80’sX having played all the guitars on Bic Runga’s 11 x platinum debut album ‘Drive’. He has toured the world with many of New Zealand’s leading singer songwriter’s including Bic, Dave Dobbyn, Jan Hellriegel, Tim Finn and played support for international acts including Radiohead, Bryan Adams and Jeff Buckley.

  • The Second Vatican Council and Music at St. John Brebeuf Church
    THE SECOND VATICAN COUNCIL AND MUSIC AT ST. JOHN BREBEUF CHURCH by John Tanner An essay written in partial fulfillment of the requirements for Master of Music Marcel A. Desautels Faculty of Music University of Manitoba Winnipeg, Manitoba John Tanner March 2012 2 ABSTRACT: Music is a part of life and worship in many religions, especially Christianity, and the Roman Catholic Church has been involved throughout her history in the development of music in the Western world. The Second Vatican Council had a major impact on the Roman Catholic Church in many respects, including on her music. Interviews were conducted with members of St. John Brebeuf Church in order to assess both this impact and their perception of music generally. The author encountered different opinions: most were favorable to the “folk” style of music now prevalent, and many had useful insights for ongoing unity, purpose and perspective in the church’s use of music to enhance the worship of the faithful. 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My heartfelt thanks to Professor Elroy Friesen, who allowed me to apply to his Master’s Program in Choral Conducting at the Marcel A. Desautels Faculty of Music at the University of Manitoba, even though I had no undergraduate musical degree. His wise counsel and strong leadership have been enormously helpful throughout the prolonged course of my studies. To my personal thesis advisor, Dr. Kurt Markstrom, who squeezed me into his over-stuffed teaching and research schedule on many Wednesday afternoons, I am very grateful. Laura Loewen and Mel Braun have given me kindly support and encouragement, as well as being wonderful role models of generous musicianship of the highest standard.

After nearly 40-years of hits and millions of albums sold, Boy George and Culture Club with Thompson Twins’ Tom Bailey will perform on the grandstand stage on Friday, August 10th. “There’s no better way to kick start the Illinois State Fair than with the ultimate 80’s party in the grandstand,” said State Fair Manager Luke Sailer. “Culture Club is one of the music industry’s most iconic bands. Their unique blend of music and stunning stage presence is sure to wow fairgoers.” Culture Club has been called one of the most influential groups of the 1980s. The British band, led by iconic front-man Boy George, has sold more than 50-million records worldwide.
