Listen Back to Michael Rowe on Showtime
Listen Back to Michael Rowe on Showtime. Michael is the president of the Barrack Street Concert Band. The BSCB are a fixture in Waterford City appearing - as they do - at countless festivals and public performances over the year.
The BSCB have a fundraising concert coming up this weekend. This is in conjunction with the Waterford Bellringers of Christchurch Cathedral.
The BSCB have been making music in Waterford since 1870. In that time - as Michael tells us - it has been unbroken service. World Wars, Civil Wars and even Pandemics haven't been able to stop this band.
There is a stellar program lined up for the audience. The Musical director on the night will be Mark Fitzgerald. A lovely touch is that Marks own daughter will be the special guest star on the night. In addition there will be guest musicians to enhance the sound of the band.
Tickets are NOW on sale from the garterlane box office here or indeed it's possible to call into Garter Lane itself.
MC for the night is the wonderful Oliver Carroll from WLR.
Tickets are just 15 euro each and all money raised goes to both the Barrack Street Concert Band and the Waterford Bell Ringers.
