Christian Promoters to Host Decyfer Down for Two Shows in Latvia in October
Hello Doug,
Greetings from Riga, Latvia!
We have some exciting news to share. We will be hosting a Christian rock band Decyfer Down from North Carolina, USA in October. They are scheduled to play a festival in Germany and were able to extend their tour to play two concerts in Latvia.
Gary has heard them play 3 times in the U.S. during our visits. They play high quality heavy rock, have recorded a few albums and are a ministry minded Christian band. To read more or check out their music, here is the band's website:
The first concert will be in Liepaja at a rock club Fontaine Palace on Thursday, October 19 and then the band will play in Riga at Latvia Lutheran Youth Center on Friday, October 20. It is located in the beautiful Old Town and is a great location. Last event we attended there was an outreach to international students who are studying in Latvia. So, we are expecting a truly international crowd of local and non-local youth, Christians and non-Christians.
As the organizers we have to cover main expenses which includes round-trip flights from Germany to Latvia, housing, transport and rental for a Sound system for the concert in Riga (the club in Liepaja will provide their own).
The airline tickets for the 4 band members is $1,000.....Adding to that Housing,Transport, Rental of the Sound System, advertisement , etc., we estimate a total of $2,800 USD.
We ask your prayers for the preparations and for the upcoming concerts! Pray that we find favor with everyone involved, especially the sound company! We are looking forward to this opportunity to partner with the youth workers of Latvia Lutheran church.
Also, we are asking if you would consider donating towards this outreach. Any amount that you can send is much appreciated. Send donation inquiries to: garyandineta@juno.com
Thank you and God bless, Gary & Ineta
