ITTH has always been pantless At least that's what I decided just now.


QFT. That's what I was thinking.. What a shame.

Subject: ITH 2008 ANNOUNCEMENT

IT IS OFFICIAL. The 6th annual INTO THE HEART FESTIVAL in partnership with
POLSON PIER hits Toronto once again November 14 – 15, 2008.

Saturday November 15, 2008: for one night only ITH is proud to bring back the
very successful, ground breaking U2 SONGBOOK in a venue almost as sexy as Bono
himself, the SOLARIUM at POLSON PIER (formerly The Docks). A stellar lineup of
indie musicians will be performing their acoustic covers of U2 songs with the
spectacular skyline of Toronto as the back drop.

Back by popular demand, ITH also presents the U2 FAN PHOTO AND ART EXHIBIT.
Professional and amateur photographer’s and artist’s tour photos, paintings,
sketches and sculptures will be on display. Some of the photographs and art work
will be auctioned off to raise funds for ITH charity recipients. ITH will be
raffling off some prizes that are bigger and better than ever before. Do not be
left at the zoo station or anywhere else other than POLSON PIER
(PolsonPier ::) on November 15, 2008.

To kick the weekend off an unofficial ITH event, on Friday November 14, 2008,
singer-songwriter, record producer and moviemaker DANIEL LANOIS, is playing at
Massey Hall. We all know and love the work Lanois has done with U2, catapulting
them into the stratosphere with the release of Unforgettable Fire and Joshua
Tree. We are all anticipating the release of the new album to see what the
collaboration of U2, Lanois and Brian Eno once again produces. To really
appreciate Lanois’ role as a record producer, one must see him as the musician,
on stage playing his guitars, working those pedals and telling his own stories.
Truly this is a concert not to be missed! Tickets are still available so don’t
wait and get your seats today (Tickets for Concerts, Sports, Arts, Theater, Family, Events, more. Official Ticketmaster site).

A one-nighter!!! what's wrong with those canucks????

Like I mentioned, I heard, read, knew that it might be a new management situation.

We've seen Daniel Lanois around L.A.; he's good and he'll stick around to talk and sign but he lives nearby, I'll catch him in Silverlake....we never committed to this one due to other travel plans.

At least one of this year's organizers has helped out with ITH before so not entirely new mgmt but still surprising it's only one night.

Strange no Elevation show, that's usually the highlight of the weekend..

Songbook was AWESOME last year so if anyone has the opportunity to check it out, I would definitely do so. They had some really amazing artists!!

lovveu2

a pass for me too

it wouldn't be an ith if elevation did not make an appearance?

Out, other plans that weekend. That's too bad. Way too short notice (apology noted), interesting that they're piggybacking a completely unrelated event to try and round out the weekend.

Also, I think people look forward to the tribute band piece of the weekend in addition to Songbook, as they know they will then be hearing the songs generally closer to how U2 perform them. As for that band being Elevation, several years of precedent does tend to set an expectation. Change is fine, but you can't expect people to embrace a change to tradition after one notice has been posted.

Reputation only goes so far, and organizational changes, format changes and late advertisement will result I think in ITH having to prove itself again to an extent.

With the mention of planning for 2009 in some of the GTA notices, this sounds like a stopgap year, so looking forward to hearing good stuff about how it goes and then (with lots of notice!) the plans for next year
