ROCK THE MALL is scheduled for August 12th at the Miller Hill Mall in Duluth. I've been thinking alot about the foundation of Lundeen Productions and everything goes back to ShowPro! For 30 years ShowPro was a name at the forefront of regional entertainment. Whether it was concerts, dances, recordings, radio broadcasts or whatever.....ShowPro was out in front leading the way.
About a half dozen years ago I mothballed the name as we got more and more in to promoting "non music" expo's and rebranded my company "Lundeen Productions." Now, yearning a bit to get back to my roots, I've decided it's time to throw out the mothballs and bring back ShowPro.
Having said that I don't want to confuse anything so it's not my intention to go back into full fledged concert and festival promotion. I think we have enough to do at LP already. My focus, at least for now, with ShowPro will be to help promote younger music talents in the region. Get them some opportunities to perform before audiences and show what they can do.
The first event will be ROCK THE MALL. This will be a big back to school event and party (as we are billing it)on Thursday August 12th at the Miller Hill Mall in Duluth. We are going to turn the food court at the mall into a concert venue and showcase a number of regional talents that will be selected from a social media competition on Facebook. We will ask musician/performers to submit videos of them performing and we'll have people vote on line as to who they like. The top vote getters will be invited to perform at ROCK THE MALL. We will then have live judges, audience voting and a few other "twists" to pick the overall winner.
Ok, we call it ROCK THE MALL but its not just limited to rock music or rock bands. Singles, Duos, Trios, Groups and Bands can participate. Catch? You have to be 18 or under! Many more details coming soon.
