As always, tickets are selling fast, but things are a little different this year.
In many past years, we have seen the 7 p.m. evening show sell out faster than the 2 p.m. matinee.
Well, I guess people have now figured out that both shows are the same and it doesn’t matter which one you go to – they’ll both be great. The matinee show is almost sold out.
Some prefer the matinee to make travel easier, but on the other hand, there are a lot of folks who like a good glass of wine or a beer with a nice relaxing meal in a local restaurant before they head in to watch the evening show.
Either way though, on Feb. 13, in Martin Exeter Hall, folks will be able to sit back and enjoy another awesome show of cowboy entertainment.
The one and only Frank Gleeson will be on the stage, so you might consider a hankie or a Kleenex to keep the tears of laughter under control.
Alan Moberg and Wesley Hardisty will do one set each. Wesley will play some boot stompin’ good old-fashioned fiddle tunes and Alan will sing his crowd favourites, like the theme song for the Williams Lake Stampede. They’ll then join together to close out the last set as a duo.
Bernadette Ducharme from Horsefly will make her first appearance at the 100 Mile House Cowboy Concert and we’re looking forward to hearing her. She will be singing songs written by a couple of different cowboy poets who we all know from past concerts – Mag Mawhinney and Bruce Rolph.
Tickets are $15 per person and are available at PMT Chartered Professional Accountants, 100 Mile Feed and Ranch, and Work n Play.
For information, call 1-888-763-2221.
Mark McMillan is the key organizer of the annual Cowboy Concert.
