@e-mail from Libera of the US
This is the most nicely worded, uplifting information e-mail I have ever received! :) I did enjoy reading it and it made me smile. Hope and cheerful anticipation for another Libera US tour shine through and put me in good mood despite me not being able to be part of such a tour. I know that nothing is official and certain, but the word "eerily" catapults my confidence in it taking place into the highest heights! :mrgreen:

Hopefully we will receive more of "something-anything". :lol:

Recieved the email from Libera of the US and was happy to read the news. Really hoping they will be coming back to CA. Saw them last year at the Christ Cathedral and was a great experience. Its going to be an exciting year, Libera concert, then going to Belgium, Chez Republic, and Germany, then Disneyland with my godson. Hope they will announce the tour dates soon, so I can start planning my trips. My hotel last year was right across from the Cathedral and pretty close to Disneyland.

I know that Utah has been discussed as a possibility before and since Libera appears to be going out west again, it might be a worthwhile destination for them. Everybody thinks of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir in relation to music in Utah, but there's also the One Voice Children's Choir, who recently did a cover of "Do not Stand at My Grave and Weep" by RP. While that children's choir is a little too pop music-oriented for my taste, it would be nice to see Libera meet up with them, assuming they aren't away on their own tour.

Hmmm This is exciting but a little frustrating for me personally. If no additional concerts are added, I'll probably fly to San Francisco and then to LA. That would be about it. Libera does well in California so there is no surprise about the 3 California dates. Will wait to see how this plays out :D

That much scheduling conflict with no way around it? I am very sorry to hear that. Do you think that there is a workaround?

Another email update for those subscribed to the Libera of the US email list. It is similar to the last email but seems to have been sent specifically to donors.
We are pleased to announce that LIBERA will be returning to the US this summer for a tour of Texas and California.

The following dates have been booked so far, and more may be added.
Sunday 29th July, 2018: St Andrew United Methodist Church, Plano, Dallas, Texas
Tuesday 31st July, 2018: St Ignatius Church, San Francisco, California
Friday 3rd August, 2018: Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels, Los Angeles, California
Tuesday 7th August, 2018: Christ Cathedral, Garden Grove, California
If you have already donated to Libera of the US since the last tour, then thank you very much! You have helped us to bring the choir back!

If not, we're asking for your support again this year to help us bring the boys back for a another successful US tour. Everyone at LIBERA appreciates your continued support. Without support from donors like you, these US tours would not be possible.

If you'd like to donate, you may use our online donation forms on our US website at libera.org, or mail us a check payable to:

Libera of the US
PO Box 20095
San Jose, CA 95160

In any event, we continue to be thankful for your support, and hope to see you at a LIBERA concert in the US this summer!
