Ceol Kids: The concert where YOU pick the setlist!
Wow, what a great concert that was! The seventh annual Ceol Kids fundraiser for the Regent Park School of Music happened on Friday, June 2nd at the Mod Club, and it was the best show yet! Did you catch the epic, 18-person version of 'Bohemian Rhapsody'? The incredibly energetic 'Matador'? How about the bizarre but amazing 'Rock Me Amadeus'? It was an awesome night. And, we managed to raise a total of $13,058.41 for the Regent Park School of Music - the second year in a row that we've beaten $13,000. Can't wait for next year - June 1st at the Mod Club again! Start thinking about what songs you want to nominate/support - as always the top songs in terms of total donations collected make up the setlist!
Congrats to our contest winner!
