Recent tour reviews

I had a brilliant night! The ladies were absolutely amazing. They had great energy, great stories and a lovely report with the crowd. Their voices were flawless and even better live than on their record. Not one note out.

Most of their songs are based on positive mental health messages and they share these stories at the show.. Allison shared that ‘Half Truths’ was written about tackling anxiety and ‘Room For You’ came with Natalie’s message “We’re all very hard on ourselves.. and each other, lets give ourselves a break.. I hope the world makes Room For You”

There was so much heart and love in their show and energy, and at one moment my friend who was with me said that he saw the hands of angels descending on top of everyone’s heads.. it was more than a show it was a healing.

There was also another funny moment during the show when an alarm went off in the building at the same time Allison sang the line “I’m in danger and I’m safe” haha! It was just that someone had leaned up against the emergency exit by accident and set off the alarm but all was fine! I’m in danger but I’m safe.. quite timely!

All in all it was a beautiful show, everyone there seemed to be in awe of their talent and vocal prowess. I’d highly recommend going to see these ladies if you enjoy their music.

Joseph absolutely blew me away!! I’ve seen them a couple of times now and it’s like they just get better and better! Powerful lyrics that resonates deep. Their vocals are so pure! They perform with such passion and heart that there’s no way you can leave their show disappointed! I’ll look forward to seeing them perform live again some day soon.

AMAZING!!!!

I can't say enough about how awesome they are! I also really like Haley Johnsen! The whole concert experience was incredible! I will go see these girls any time they are in town, or even remotely close to Houston. They must come back!!!

JOSEPH HABEDANK ANNOUNCES autobiography SUMMER TOUR with Travis Clark!

Nashville, TN (April 23rd, 2024) – GRAMMY-nominated singer/songwriter Joseph Habedank is excited to announce the upcoming autobiography Summer Tour 2024. Kicking off on May 8th in Bloomington, IN, this leg of the tour will include 40 concert events in 18 different states including Texas, Missouri, New York, Colorado and many more! Appearing at select dates will be special guest Travis Clark, a talented up-and-coming musician who is sure to delight audiences with his beautiful arrangements and melodic voice.

The autobiography Summer Tour 2024 launches just weeks after the release of the highly anticipated new studio album from the award-winning artist, entitled Autobiography. The project is a musical journey through Habedank’s upbringing, through valleys and triumphs, all culminating in praise for God’s grace and faithfulness in every aspect of life. Audiences across the country have enjoyed previously released singles from the collection, such as ‘the basement’ and ‘tell the devil,’ and Joseph is eager to present the new music as part of the summer tour, as well as revisit well-known favorites for an incredible musical event!

Joseph Habedank is also proud to continue partnering with Destiny Rescue, and to have this special organization as a sponsor of the autobiography Summer Tour. Destiny Rescue works diligently to save children from trafficking and exploitation around the world. As part of the tour, attendees will have the chance to learn about how they too can partner with this ministry to support the rescue and reintegration programs, making a difference in the lives of precious children.

This concert tour may only appear in a city near you once this year, so make plans now to attend Joseph Habedank’s autobiography Summer Tour 2024!

Why Dierks Bentley loves playing Kansas City concerts: Travis, Taylor and Garth Brooks

Country singer Dierks Bentley has always loved coming to Kansas City, but he has a newfound appreciation for the city, thanks to the world’s most popular couple.

Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift may have converted the country star into becoming one of the newest members of the Chiefs Kingdom. In a 15-minute interview with The Star, he said his family watched a lot of Chiefs football thanks to those two.

“My teenagers love the Chiefs,” he said. “I’m Travis Kelce’s biggest fan because of that. We get to watch football as a family because of that.”

So you might just see Bentley and his family at a Chiefs home game this season . But before that, fans of the artist can see him in Kansas City this week.

The 14-time Grammy-nominated singer brings his Gravel & Gold Tour to T-Mobile Center on Friday in support of his newest album with the same name. This is a part of the second leg of the tour that started in 2023. Bentley is joined by country singers Chase Rice and Tanner Usrey.

“A special town to play in”

Kansas City crowds have always been great to Bentley, he said, so he made it a point to come back here. It was also the site of an impromptu trip with his wife, Cassidy, to see Garth Brooks play one of his nine sold-out shows at the T-Mobile Center in 2007.

Bentley and his wife left a “terrible football game” between the Tennessee Titans and Jacksonville Jaguars early on Nov. 11, 2007 to fly to Kansas City to see Brooks perform.

This was before Bentley earned his pilot’s license and began flying himself and his bandmates to shows, so he and his wife got on a Southwest Airlines flight out of Nashville to make it in time.

Bentley was also a guest performer for Swift during her 1989 World Tour stop in Kansas City in 2015.

“I feel like I’ve been playing there my whole life, but I can’t remember the exact tour dates,” Bentley said. “I’m always living in the present, but (Kansas City’s) always a special town to play in.”

‘Gravel & Gold’

“Gravel & Gold” is Bentley’s 10th studio album , and he wanted it to feel special. After multiple recording sessions in a studio in his home state of Colorado, he settled on making it a collection of all the different sounds he’s been associated with over his 20-year career.

Fans can hear traditional and modern country styles, along with bluegrass scattered throughout the album’s 14 songs.

Even though one of his hit songs is titled “Drunk On A Plane,” part of why he’s been able to perform for two decades is because he’s a trained pilot who flies himself to tour destinations. Being able to fly to and from shows reduces the wear and tear on his body from traveling and performing, keeping the 48-year-old star fresh for the 90-minute shows.

He received it in his early 20s, but he ran out of money and couldn’t afford to stay in the sky.

It wasn’t until he bumped into his friend and country icon Tim McGraw a decade later that he decided it was time to get back to flying. Bentley’s first kid was just born and he was looking for ways to reduce his time on the road so he could spend more time with his family.

McGraw was taking flying lessons and introduced Bentley to his pilot, and the rest is history.

Bentley isn’t sure if he’ll fly to Kansas City for the show since he has a show in St. Louis on Thursday and Omaha on Saturday. No matter his method of travel, he said he’s looking forward to putting on a great show for the fans.

Concertgoers can expect to hear his greatest and latest hits, like the song “Gold,” from his new album, along with covers from artists like Toby Keith, Tom Petty and Noah Kahan. Bentley’s 90s country music parody band, The Hot Country Knights , are expected to make an appearance at the end of the night to play hits from artists in the 90s, like Billy Ray Cyrus’ “Achy Breaky Heart,” and Brooks’ “Friends in Low Places.”

“We put so much time into our show, making it the best it can be,” Bentley said. “We really focus on the fan experience and want it to be awesome.”

How much are tickets?

Tickets are available on Ticketmaster’s website. Prices range from $20 to $59.75 for seats and $95.75 for general admission pit tickets. Prices are before fees.

Here’s how the lowest ticket prices compare on resale sites as of Saturday:

• SeatGeek : $11 before fees
• StubHub : $10 before fees
• Tickets For Less : $20 with no fees
• Vivid Seats : $13 before fees

When does T-Mobile Center open?

T-Mobile Center’s website says the doors open at 6:30 p.m. for Founders Club members or visitors with premium plus or VIP ticket access. Visitors who have T-Mobile as a cellphone provider and signed for the service’s Club Magenta pass can enter at 6:45 p.m.

All doors open at 7 p.m. Guests who have VIP and general admission tickets can line up to enter starting at 11 a.m. Friday.

If your cellphone provider is T-Mobile, Metro by T-Mobile or MINT, you can enter through the expedited T-Mobile gate on Grand Boulevard when all doors open.

The venue is cashless, so you can only buy concert merchandise with credit and debit cards or contactless payment methods, like Apple Pay.

What can and can’t I bring to T-Mobile Center?

T-Mobile Center does not have a clear bag policy, but the venue encourages fans to pack lightly when attending. Your bag should not be larger than 12” by 6” by 12”. Don’t bring backpacks or chain wallets.

These other items are not allowed inside:

Artificial noisemakers

Beach balls and balloons

Cameras with detachable lenses

Coolers and containers

Laptop and tablet computers

Outside food and beverages

Pocket knives

Selfie sticks

Umbrellas with spike-like points

Any type of weapon, fake weapon or object resembling a weapon

Where can I park in downtown Kansas City?

Downtown Kansas City has plenty of parking available near T-Mobile Center. The arena offers on-site parking in the red lot at 12th and Oak streets and the yellow lot at 13th Street and Grand Boulevard, which is the KC Live! garage.

You will have to purchase passes to these lots in advance online . Both lots cost $20 before online fees. Event parking opens three hours before the concert.

Other than those, there are over 40,000 parking spaces in the downtown area . Many are paid lots, and you can find free street parking. You can also park farther away and take the free KC Streetcar to the stop 14th and Main streets, the closest to T-Mobile Center.

Where can I be dropped off and picked up for the concert?

Grand Boulevard and Oak Street in front of T-Mobile Center will be blocked off for the concert.

If you’re being dropped off by a family, friend, Uber or Lyft, they can take you as close to the 13th and Oak Street entrance as possible. They may also drop you off on streets that aren’t blocked off in the Power & Light District or farther away if walking isn’t an issue.

The same is true for picking up concertgoers after the show. Communicate with your driver so they can find you once the show’s over.

48,600 tickets allocated for Pope Francis’ mass

All 48,600 tickets in the papal mass ballot have been allocated after the final round of balloting closed a minute to midnight on Aug 18.

Registration for seats to Pope Francis’ Sept 12 mass - his first in Singapore - opened on June 24 and was extended till August after overwhelming demand prompted a surprise second ballot.

Mr Lawrence Chan, the event’s head of ticketing, had earlier estimated that at least six out of 10 applicants would be successful in their bid.

An extra 6,000 tickets were added in the second ballot, held from Aug 5 to 18, with limited views of the altar and stage.

The total number of people who bid for the tickets was not disclosed.

The caveat is of little consequence to Ms Monica Magdalene, 59, who on the morning of Aug 19 was ecstatic to learn that she had managed to snag a ticket in the second round.

Balloting for tickets to mass by Pope Francis starts on June 24

The executive, who was baptised four months ago, said: “To be able to be with His Holiness in the same mass and gathering... I feel when something like this is presented to Catholics we should embrace (it) gladly and joyously.”

The papal mass is expected to be the highlight of the 87-year-old pontiff’s maiden visit to Singapore from Sept 11 to 13, the last leg of his Asia Pacific tour.

For Ms Foo Yan Nuen, 59, and her family, it was not to be.

The mother of three said: “We were unsuccessful in the first round of balloting and were hopeful that we would get good news this morning. Unfortunately, it was not meant to be, so our family will watch the live stream instead.

“We were so looking forward to celebrating holy mass with His Holiness, Pope Francis, in person.”

There are 32 churches and about 243,000 Roman Catholics in Singapore, according to the 2020 census.

Some 20 per cent of the total seats available have been reserved for volunteers and invited guests, including overseas bishops, priests and laity.

The mass will be held at the National Stadium, 38 years after the first papal mass celebrated by Pope John Paul II took place at the old National Stadium in 1986.

Security and bag checks will commence at 12.30pm, a half hour before the gates open at 1pm.

Attendees must be seated by 3.30pm and the pontiff will arrive at 4.30pm.

The mass will begin at 5.15pm and end at 7.30pm.

It will be livestreamed in full.

Details of the mass programme can be found at the official Pope Francis Singapore 2024 webpage.

The capital city of Voronezh oblast .

The administrative center of Voronezh Oblast, it stands on the banks of the Voronezh River, 12 km from its confluence with the Don River. Voronezh is considered the cradle of the Russian navy and the birthplace of the airborne troops.

The population of Voronezh is about 1,048,700 (2022), the area - 596 sq. km.

History of Voronezh

Foundation of voronezh.

The first mention of Voronezh dates back to 1177 in connection with the battle of the Vladimir and Ryazan princes and the escape of Yaropolk of Ryazan to “Voronozh”. Some historians suggest, based on fragments of these chronicles, that Voronezh (Voronozh) existed as a settlement back in the 12th century. Other historians believe that the chronicle meant only the Voronezh River.

The second, very significant, mention of Voronezh in the chronicles refers to 1237, when the conquest of the Russian principalities by Khan Batu began during the Western campaign of the Mongols. The Russian princes decided to give the first battle to the enemies “and came out against them in Voronozh”, but were defeated. Again, the word “Voronozh” probably means the Voronezh River, not a settlement.

The Tsar’s decree on the foundation of Voronezh has not yet been found. The archive has an order of the boyar Nikita Yuriev from 1586 on the reorganization of the guard service on the southern outskirts of the Moscow state and on the construction of two fortified settlements: Livny and Voronezh. Thus, the official year of the foundation of Voronezh is 1586.

Located on the trade route at the confluence of the Voronezh River with the Don, Voronezh could not remain an exclusively military town for a long time. In 1615, its population was about 7 thousand people. From the middle of the 17th century, Russian and foreign ambassadors to the Ottoman Empire, the Crimean Khanate, and the Caucasus travelled through Voronezh. It became part of the Belgorod line - fortifications that protected the Russian state from the raids of the Crimean Tatars until the end of the 17th century.

Voronezh - the cradle of the Russian navy

In 1695, during the first Azov campaign, Russian troops were unable to capture the fortress of Azov standing on the bank of the Don River, several kilometers from its confluence with the Sea of Azov. The siege was unsuccessful, as the Ottoman garrison in the fortress received support from the sea.

Therefore, Peter I decided to start building a fleet. Voronezh was chosen for this because of its strategic position on the Voronezh River flowing into the Don. Secondly, there were forests near the town that could be used as building materials. Thirdly, the residents of Voronezh had experience in the construction and use of river vessels.

In 1696, as a result of the second campaign, the Azov fortress was taken by Russian troops. The Russian fleet prevented the supply of people, ammunition and food to the fortress. From 1696 to 1711, about 215 ships were built in Voronezh, including the ship “Goto Predestinatsia” (The Providence of God) - the first Russian ship of the line.

In Voronezh, the organizational foundations for the subsequent construction of the Russian fleets in the Baltic and Black Seas were laid. The first Admiralty in Russia was also created here. However, the military shipyard in Voronezh did not exist for long due to the gradual shallowing of the rivers.
