Guitar Studio Rock Camp August 18


GUITAR STUDIO ROCK CAMP

Soo Theatre Project presents Guitar Studio Rock Camp, Tuesday, August 18, 2009 at 7:00 pm. This all student show is presented by Rock Camp Director, guitar, and bass instructor Joey Beairl. Beairl was assisted by drum instructor, Mike Vollman. Joey’s wife, Amy helped with vocals and other band advice. This is a performance of the students involved with Guitar Studio Rock Camp. Performing on Soo Theatre’s stage is a wonderful experience for these up and coming performers.

The students work together to pick their band name and their song list. They learn their parts in lessons and attend weekly rehearsals starting in June. The first two summers of Rock Camp led to one performance for each of the bands. Because these were successful, and the students were ready to handle more, additional venues were sought, resulting eventually in five performances each summer. Summer 2009 provided 4 brand new venues including the Chippewa County Relay for Life, Mackinaw City Crossings, Soo Theatre Project, Family Day at the Satisfied Frog, and a Rock Camp road trip to Foggy’s in Christmas.

Three bands will be performing on Tuesday, August 18, Unleashed, 747, and Intrepid. Unleashed: Isaac Terrian, vocals; Eli Reilly, guitar; Maddy Lamma, bass; Chris VerHaagh, drums. 747: Mike Pascoe, guitar and vocals; Tyler Wall, guitar; Jack Slater, bass; Joe North, drums. Intrepid: Donnie Hank, guitar; Nick Pavlat, guitar; Mitch Goetz, bass and vocals; Kenny Schirer, drums.

Come, support, and join in the fun on Tuesday, August 18th at 7:00 pm. Admission at the door is $5.00. Guitar Studio students with proper identification are free.
