Lindsey Stirling Snow Waltz tour PRESALE
Sep 13 @ 10:00 am
online w/ Thomas Wolfe Auditorium

VIP on-sale begins on Tuesday, September 13th at 10am local time and CITI Presale is from Tuesday, September 13th at 10am local time to Thursday, September 15th at 10pm local time. Artist presale is from Tuesday, September 13th at 12pm local time to Thursday, September 15th at 10pm local time. Spotify presale and venue presale is from Thursday, September 15th 10am to 10pm local time. Public on-sale is on Friday, September 16th at 10am local time. Purchase tickets here: https://www.lindseystirling.com/

Stirling’s live performance is a force to be reckoned with. She’s performed for more than 800,000 people on her headline tours, and her co-headlining tour with Evanescence was named one of Live Nation’s best-selling amphitheater tours of 2018. The “unlikely music phenomena” (NYT) sold over 250k+ tickets
on her Christmas tours, and sold over 15k tickets for her live streamed Christmas special in 2021, which was seen by over 100,000 people.

Can we update that the 250k was just for her Annual christmas tour? Per above note: Also to clarify a few things, the 250k+ number for ticket sales is exclusive to just her Christmas shows! She’s sold over 1 million tickets across her career.

Lindsey’s new Christmas album Snow Waltz is out October 7th via Concord. Featuring eight classic covers and five original tracks, Snow Waltz delivers Stirling’s immersive arrangements and mesmerizing melodies but with a seasonal twist, featuring songs that promise to be the perfect soundtrack for the holiday season. The album’s first single “Ice Storm” is an original guitar-fueled and wildy rousing instrumental, which shines a new light on the multi-faceted musician’s rock-leaning sensibilities. Watch the “Ice Storm” video here: https://found.ee/LS_IceStormMusicVideo

The follow-up to her debut holiday album Warmer in the Winter — which earned a #1 spot on Billboard’s Holiday Albums Chart, and #1 on Amazon and iTunes Holiday Album Charts — Snow Waltz emerges as a singular new entry in the holiday-music canon, once again proving Stirling’s extraordinary gift as an instrumental storyteller.

Lindsey Stirling is an electronic violinist, dancer, and artist who has humbly become one of the 21st century’s most innovative stars. Her groundbreaking vision has gained her millions of adoring fans worldwide, four Billboard chart-topping albums, and two Billboard Music Awards including Top Dance/Electronic Album for her third studio release, Brave Enough. Her holiday album, Warmer in Winter, catapulted to the #1 spot on Billboard, Amazon and iTunes Holiday Album charts upon release and lead single “Carol of the Bells” made history as the only instrumental song ever to reach the Top 10 at AC Radio. Lindsey has amassed over 13.4 million subscribers, nearly 3.5 billion views on YouTube, 3.4 million followers on Tik Tok, and over 500k user generated creations across Tik Tok and Instagram reels. In addition to this, Forbes placed her at #4 on its 2015 World’s Top-Earning YouTube Stars list and her fifth-studio album, Artemis, debuted at #1 on the Dance/Electronic Album Chart.

The raffle winner is responsible for remitting the funds to BMC for the federal income tax. Brevard Music Center is required by law to report the base MSRP of the vehicle the winner chooses as gaming income to federal and state authorities and to withhold and deposit federal income taxes equal to 25% of the MSRP less the wager (raffle ticket). The winner’s payment of the federal taxes to BMC will be deposited with the US Federal Treasury and the winner will receive credit for the taxes remitted. In order for the dealer to release the winner’s vehicle, the winner will need to provide the following to BMC:

  1. A completed form W-9.
  2. Payment to BMC of the appropriate amount of federal tax withholding in cash or certified check.

Once both of these are received, BMC will authorize the dealer to release the vehicle. The winner will receive a Form W-2G by January 31, 2023 to use in preparing their 2022 income tax return.

Tunes in the Park ~ Outdoor concert in Greer

Summer is almost over! This free concert is the last of the season for this venue. The Rhythm City Band (multiple genres) will perform at 6p on Sept. 17 at the Greer City Park. Let’s arrive by 5:30 so we can pick out a spot for our group. Not sure if the concert will be in the amphitheater or on the lawn. I’ll send out a notification of where our group will be gathered. Bring a folding chair or blanket to sit on. There will be food trucks on site and outside food /beverages are prohibited. There is free parking across the street from the park and at the adjacent city hall building. If you have a permanent name tag please remember to bring yours. I will have extras for those that need one.
The Boomers Connect in Upstate SC Meetup Group does not officially collect dues through the Meetup website. We prefer to have a voluntary system. You can give your Event Host your contribution at any event. We have no set minimum but recommend $5.00 annually.
