Concerts in YOUR Home: Rupert Wates in Vero Beach Feb. 3rd!

Singer Song-Writer, Rupert Wates

What are you doing on Wednesday night? 
We're hosting singer-songwriter Rupert Wates 
 for an official concert-in-our-living room 
under the banner: 


What is Concerts in Your Home you ask? 
It is a ten year old organization that supports the Arts 
by matching performing musicians with music lovers. 

It is a cyber clearing house for those willing to support musicians 
 as they travel and develop fans. 

It is a brilliant idea that I've only JUST discovered, 
due to an article in our local newspaper. 

We will officially host Rupert in our home over night 
as our inaugural event. 
We have extended invitations to friends and neighbors to join us for his concert! 

We will roll out the coffee table and add some folding chairs. 
Rupert will bring his amplifier. 
Friends will bring a dessert to share. 
What could be easier? 

We will gnosh and visit.
Then we will all take our seats and Rupert will play a set of some of his favorite
award winning songs. 

I'm NOT expecting a sing-a-long. 
This will be a REAL concert. 
Right there in our home. 

My list of attendees is up to 29. 
We can easily handle another 11. 

Here's a link to the RSVP page. 
It will give you other links to Rupert's songs.

Our suggested donation is $15 per person. 
Not to worry, you can set your donation at less if necessary or MORE if able! 

Rupert will have copies of his CDs to sell to those in attendance. 
He may even have some Tshirts to sell! 

What if we each hosted a concert? 
What if we each supported an artist-musician directly? 
What if we put our priorities on buying directly from creatives? 
This is the ultimate example of buying small. 

We have been hosted numerous times in the homes of one of the teachers or administrators of a school that I am visiting. It is a huge support of my traveling to be able to save the lodging expense when on the road.

More significant is having the human elbow-to-elbow aspect of being a guest in someone's home. I have often benefited from the kindness of others and this kickoff 
CONCERT in the COVE {our livingroom} 
is my way to pay it forward! 

Go look at Concerts in Your Home 
and sign up as a host! 

Then search for your favorite genre of music. 
Bingo. 
You're in!
