THE WOODLANDS, Texas - Timeless rock stars The Moody Blues are paying it forward throughout their Voyage 2011 Precious Cargo tour by teaming up with Ear Candy Charity to host a week-long instrument drive to support Conroe Independent School District. Throughout the week of April 22 – 29, community members can donate a new or slightly used instrument at two area fire stations and The Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion. These instruments will benefit music students at Washington Junior High School in Conroe. There also will be a special collection the night of the show at the venue.
Fans of The Moody Blues who have yet to purchase their tickets for the concert can take advantage of a Buy One Get One Free ticket offer by donating an instrument. Limit one free ticket with the purchase of another ticket of equal value to The Moody Blues concert April 29 at The Pavilion. This offer is only available at The Pavilion Box Office April 22-29 and does not apply to previously purchased tickets.
The Moody Blues know that the benefits of music education in the lives of children are undeniable, yet in these troubling economic times, budgets for music education are being slashed. To address these shortfalls, Ear Candy Charity created Instrument Drives® to collect slightly used instruments for children who otherwise cannot afford them. Individuals donate instruments at donation sites, and the instruments are placed in the hands of low income students in the community. The “Journey of the Instrument” is completed when the original donor is notified of the school or program where the instrument they donated has been placed. A tax receipt will be provided for instrument donors.
In addition to encouraging instrument donations, The Moody Blues is offering two exclusive VIP packages which include an intimate Storytellers experience, a Moody Blues merchandise package, and a pair of premium tickets to the show. The packages are available via online auction to support Ear Candy Charity’s mission of providing youth access to music education. Supporters are encouraged to visit MoodyBluesToday.com or EarCandyCharity.org to learn how and where to donate an instrument, bid on a VIP package, purchase tickets to the show, or make a financial contribution.
