After 15 years of existence, we “Paradise” are proud to announce our final U.S. concert tour. The band will make its final stops at the following cities/states:
St. Paul, Minnesota 07/03/04 Aldrich Arena
Green Bay, Wisconsin 09/04/04 Brown County Arena
Hickory, North Carolina 11/27/04 Park Inn Gateway Conference Center
Fresno, California 12/26/04 Casablanca
The band has been contemplating this avenue for the past couple of years. With the near future departure of Long Her, Nao Vang, and Cina Chang for pursuing their higher educations out-of-state college/university, the band feels that this year would be the right time to bring this great journey to an end. The remaining members, April, Haget, Phong, and Derek, have also made plans to pursue their higher educations and own professional careers as well. Most important of all, band members will dedicate more of their time to their well-deserved families.
At the beginning, each member took on music as a hobby and this is where most of him or her will leave it. Paradise is thankful for being able to sustain this long without jeopardizing what it stood for: education and personal growth. For this, we want to thank the Lord, our family and loved ones, and all our fans that have been so faithful to what we believe in.
We are proud to welcome back Ko Yang, the band longtime singer, for the final tour
and also proud to announce our newest released CD “Shooting Star” in 2004 as the best and last of Paradise. Also, Kou Thor (former keyboard) and Lue Vang (former guitarist) will be joining Paradise on their final show in Fresno on December 26, 2004.
We would like to think of the ending tour as a new beginning as each individual goes on and does greater things in life.
Again, we “Paradise” would like to thank all of the fans out there for your supports throughout the past years and look forward to see you all and your supports at our last stops in your cities.
Thank you and God bless!
