First there was SpaceMountain - a concert series held in the home of Mike and Judi Space - beloved by a large audience including us.
|
Mike always introduced SpaceMountain as being "slightly under the radar". He hoped to escape the notice of the Walt Disney Company.
We attended these concerts over many years and enjoyed the pleasurable fellowship during them. Mike and Judi were the most welcoming of hosts. The performers they chose entertained with skill and simple joy. Audience members became friends.
So it came to pass sadly that Mike died in December 2013. Dave Fry organized a celebration of life for Mike. (Good job, Dave.) Well over 300 of us filled the Meadows in Hellertown. All of Mike's friends were there, from Godfrey Daniels, the Philadelphia Folk Festival, NERFA, his car club, their house concerts, etc.
Judi, being the trouper she is, continued for several years, but it then came time for something new (like selling the now too big house and moving to a huge luxurious condo in Philly. I do mean "WOW!")
We are most pleased that Judi was willing for us to continue their tradition. Please come to Monocacy Creek House Concerts. We promise that you will not be disappointed.
Friends and colleagues of Mike wrote some lovely words in his memory.
