It's A Beautiful Surprise" concert
series is being produced across the country for the benefit of
raising funds for the five humanitarian foundations and in
continuing their amazing efforts upon the global stage.
The proceeds will be divided among the American Gold Seal Foundation, Kingdom Train Foundation, Hands InService Foundation, Applied BioPhysics Ministries and the Global Phoenix Foundation. Specifically, these five foundations are working to take food and important supplies into the impoverished areas of Africa where the need is desperately urgent. The American Gold Seal Foundation will supply a life-saving blended food supplement called Golden Nutrients. These Golden Nutrients are a "whole food" that have been proven to bring people out of stage II starvation as well as improve malnutrition to acceptable levels of health. Combining the efforts of these five foundations will supply the safe transportation and inroads into the areas where people are desperate for the basic needs in life. Each foundation has a unique contribution to make in helping the people who are suffering from the effects of poverty, famine, war and disease. When the five foundations arrive with the supplies for these people "It's A Beautiful Surprise" from the people of the world who care about and need to uphold all the members of the human family. Beautiful Surprise Tour 2007 Throughout history God has challenged mankind to measure up to the abundant graces He has showered upon him. He has supported the life He has created with food, water and shelter and He has entrusted mankind with the great responsibility to maintain the beautiful earth and to care for His living creatures. This responsibility encompasses our human relations and includes working in harmony with each other to achieve His goals. Some of mankind has fallen short of the challenge and allowed ignorance, greed and lack of understanding to lead them astray. Lands have been ravaged; people have been left destitute from war, poverty and disease. It is time to step up to the challenge and provide examples of what we can do when we are inspired, not by greed or hate, but by love, empathy and compassion for our fellow man. It is time for the wishing well of hope. Since one of man's most identifiable affections is for music, which for him transcends borders and national differences, American Gold Seal Foundation and Don Cook Productions are collaborating with four major charitable foundations. The result is a magnificent "It's A Beautiful Surprise" concert series using music to provide the awareness and funding for the respective projects. The most pressing goal at this time is the Africa Food Relief initiative. A SONG OF HOPE UK songwriter/artist Nick Barclay's song "It's A Beautiful Surprise," lends itself to the heart and soul of our purpose and provides the theme and title of the concert series. Just as the song empresses the expectation of hope, the theme offers all who attend an opportunity to be a part of the fulfillment of that hope. Many people in the world are clinging to hope day by day and hundreds die every hour. Our goal is to take major action in bringing their hope into reality and we shall use music to help pave the way. I. THE TOUR Our tour will consist of 6 touring acts and a guest celebrity at every performance. Although the venues will be on average 4200 seat capacity, we propose to perform 30 shows in the major cities of the United States and Canada, and plans are in the works for tours on other continents. This will be a yearly event and we hope it will grow bigger each year. This will provide not only an awareness to the foundation's projects, but also create an opportunity for many deserving artists to break into the lineup, and get their music rightfully heard worldwide. II. THE CAST Our US/Canada Tour artists will include a wonderful Elvis & Cher look-alike act who will emcee our shows, followed by Nick Barclay ( http://www.beautifulsurprise.com/beautifulsurprise.htm) performing 4 or 5 of his songs, including "Beautiful Surprise," then the Texas rock band Electric Crush (http://www.electriccrush.net/) , followed by the unbelievable 14 year old blues sensation Patrick Droney (http://www.patrickdroney.com) , a wonderful star in the making, singer/songwriter from the UK Kelly Mueller (http://www.kellymueller.com/) , and the classic rock band from the UK Carmen Pimps (http://www.carmenpimps.com) , whose name comes from an entirely different meaning than it appears.
