Mark your calendars: Sunday, November 19th, 7pm, St. Anthony Park Lutheran Church

Many of you remember the Kickstarter the MMO made a substantial contribution to, benefitting Sherry Ladig's Maiden Rock CD project.

In return for the success of that Kickstarter, Sherry's band Dunquin is holding a thank you performance for us - the MMO - and our friends! As an opener, the Carl Street Mandolin Quartet will perform a few of Sherry's compositions for the MMO.

It took us a while to find a suitable venue, and we all know and love the Lutheran church at St. Anthony Park, so it's exciting to be there!

Given busy lives, the MMO alone might be a too small group to form the audience. Add our friends, and we're a bit bigger. Add Sherry's friends and we could readily fill the church beyond capacity!

We're operating on a more is better, as long as it's friends and family of the MMO and Sherry and her Trio. This is not a "public" concert, per se.

We'll do a rolling invitation starting November 1st - first the MMO+friends, then Sherry Ladig's friends. The goal being to allow MMO members and families and friends first dibs on seats, then Sherry's friends.

When you get your invitation, if you intend to attend, please follow the Brown Paper Tickets link and secure seats for you and your immediate family.  Those other people you asked to subscribe to our distribution will get invitations next - and we will encourage them to act quickly as well. Based on headcount from BPT, we'll decide whether to open it up to Sherry's peeps.

This is a very interesting experiment. It may well open up ideas for future indoor events and how we go about those!

If you have any ideas, please let us know.
