They also appear to be playing Town Hall in NYC.

For the Egg, the presale code is PROG - but you didn't hear it from me

**JKL2000** · 05-16-2017

What's with bands having such outdated info on their sites? They don't remove the old tour dates once they passed.

It's good Renaissance is playing Town Hall. I see there's a presale beginning Thursday but I have no idea what the code, if any, might be. Also wondering if they'll play the Tarrytown Music Hall.

How'd you get a presale code? Their website doesn't mention a mailing list (though I feel like I used to be on one) and their Facebook page has no relevant posts.

**progman1975** · 05-17-2017

Got an email from BRE presents....

**JKL2000** · 05-17-2017

😲 Tickets for Town Hall are on sale now for Amex Presale! Got 2nd row orchestra on the center aisle! I doubt they'll also mount this at the Tarrytown Music Hall but if they do I'll be kicking myself. Still, Town Hall is a nice venue.

Looks like they are playing the Ridgefield Playhouse too

**progman1975** · 06-07-2017

Per Annie:As part of our 2017 Fall Tour we are planning four special concerts which will be at The Ridgefield Theater, Ridgefield CT, Keswick Theatre, Philadelphia PA, Town Hall NYC and The Egg in Albany NY, that will include a 10-piece chamber orchestra. One of these concerts will be filmed and recorded for a new live DVD.

^ Thanks for posting that! I'm in for the CD/DVD! I'll be at the NYC show so I hope they use that one, as long as no cameras are in my way.

Meanwhile, happy 70th birthday to Annie!

**Baribrotzer** · 06-08-2017

No idea she was that old. I'd thought she was six or eight years younger. The degree to which she's kept her voice is definitely impressive.

**rapidfirerob** · 06-08-2017

I will definitely purchase a DVD!

The majority of band sites seem to keep up old dates, just for the sake of having a record of it, or some reason, or another. I find this useful at times. The new ones are at the top, so that is the important thing, isn't it?

I think they weren't there when I posted that.

**bRETT** · 06-12-2017

Boston show just announced, November 1 at the newly opened City Winery. Without orchestra I assume. (First time they've actually played in town or thereabouts since the Regent show with Steve Hackett maybe 10 years ago).

**BarryLI** · 06-12-2017

I remember vividly the last Kickstarter campaign where a DVD was promised but never delivered. I recall after posting it up somewhere I received an e-mail asking me to call a number to discuss why, no less than Annie picked up the phone at the other end and explained what with Michael's untimely death the project had stalled but would surely come to fruition sometime in the future, which to the best of my knowledge never did. I'll be sitting the current one out, of course.

If you mean Grandine il Vento, there was a DVD for that....Delayed a full year because of Michael Dunford's death, but they came through. You can probably contact the band if you didn't get yours.

You don't mean the Union Chapel DVD do you? If not, do you know if there's a title for the DVD?

No, it isn't that. It just has the album art on it and is labelled "Bonus DVD." Haven't watched it in awhile but I believe it's mostly making-of footage, with intros that Annie and Michael taped together when he was there.

They were really nice to contributors on that project, even sending downloads of the two new songs after the album was reissued.

BarryLI: Yes, that DVD eventually was sent out to those who were eligible to receive it, (i.e.: they paid for it). I received mine with an explanatory letter (not that it was needed) as to the reason for the delay & with apologies. I've watched it once. Not essential to me. If you're interested...

Guess I dropped out of the loop, then, complaint withdrawn.
