Hello Again! You all might remember the Beethoven Concert in September Well, we're doing it again!

Our next Concert will feature the works of Copland. Sadly, We're a bit late getting concert of the gate so the Concert is the Monday after American Thanksgiving. I hope you will all join us for this wonderful event.

Last, but not least, there will be a Christmas Concert as well. The date has not been nailed down yet but will be in place by the date of this concert. I hope you all enjoy.

How it works
This Concert will work as close to the real thing as possible but here is a general outline of the evening. Like a real life concert, this kind of thing is often attended with friends, love ones or, perhaps a date. Dress up a little or a lot. It’s all up to you.

1. Head to the Atlas Park Base portal and look for a member of Hero Heights standing by it. This person will invite you to a league so you man enter the base and theater.

2. Go to into ParagonBroadcasting.com and start listening to the stream so you can hear the music and the ambiance. The station will cut into normal programing at least 20 minutes before the concert start time to help us start the proper mood.

3. Before the concert starts, feel free to find your seat, chatter in local with your neighbor, or just hang out in the lobby and watch the pretty people walk by.

4. During the Concert, standard concert behavior please! Emote and talk in a whisper. If it is a loud whisper and others can hear you, use /e. If only your neighbor can hear, then /tell.

5. There will an Intermission. Same idea as before the concert started.

6. More music!

7. The concert ends and people eventually exit the theater. You, do not, however, have to leave the Heights. The neighborhood is full of places get a bite to eat, relax in or just enjoy.

About the Venues
Hero Heights is a neighborhood themed supergroup whose base represents an area outside the war walls between Steel Canyon and Independence Port. The heights is home to a high concentration of meta families living in it and, hence, is considered by many as the safest place in Paragon City outside of Atlas Park proper.

Here is some flavor text to give you the general idea:
“Welcome to Hero Heights! We are an unusual neighborhood.
Crime just doesn't happen here. That might be because the shoplifters that tried to rip off Holman's Market three years ago didn't know that Mr. Holman was The Wall before he retired in the 1980s. Or was it because Ms. Quicklight was shopping there at the time? No, it was probably because Mandy, Mr. Fashion's 6-year-old daughter, used her heat vision when one shoplifter pulled a gun, and Pastor Henry encased the other perp in ice until the police could arrive.”

About the McIntosh Theater
The McIntosh theater was built in 1923 as a combination vaudeville stage and movie theater by millionaire Benjamin McIntosh. A confirmed bachelor with no heirs, Mr. McIntosh set about spending his fortune on buildings in immigrant communities. Hero Heights is one such community and was blessed with a 120 seat in the art deco style.

The building amazingly survived the First Rikti Invasion mostly intact and has been restored over the last few years to it’s current fantastic state.

Oops....

The composer is Aaron Copland. I am sorry for the error. The sad thing is I had checked and double checked the name and then had someone else proof read the poster.

Sure thing! Upper or lower level?

I'm not sure how you could do an evening of Copland without at least SOMETHING from Appalachian Spring especially the most famous movement of the entire piece.

Have no fear. Appalachian Spring will be heard in its entirety.

Don't feel bad, Ardrea, I missed it too. I wanted to attend, but it completely skipped my mind.

The concert was okay. We had light turn out this time but it's the holiday season.

Also, if you missed it, don't worry. We'll have another one in January.
