Help us celebrate this Premiere at The Capitol Theatre, 330 West 3rd Street, Davenport, IA on Thursday, June 10th. This free event is co-hosted by The River Music Experience and The Capitol Theatre. Doors will open at 7pm, Ellis Kell and Andrew Landers will perform a set prior to the show and then the show will begin at 8:00pm. "Even if you haven't been to a cleanup, please feel free to come to this event and help us celebrate", says Chad Pregracke, Founder and President of LLW.
"The Discovery Channel is airing our program after a documentary on the oil spill in the Gulf," says Pregracke, "The Discovery Channel did this to give people hope and a way to help out. I think we all feel so helpless when we see what's happening down there. What we do up here eventually reaches the Gulf. So, we hope our program inspires people to get involved.
