Seftor, Jaul and Mary | Peter, Paul & Mary will perform at Kirby Peter, Paul & Mary will perform in a benefit concert at the Kirby Center on Thursday, October 25 at 8 p.m. Tickets for this show, which will benefit Common Cause/Pennsylvania, will go on sale on September 10 and will be priced at $75, $40, $35, $30. Tickets may be purchased by visiting or calling The Kirby Box Office at 826-1100. Tickets are also available at Ticketron locations and at Video World in Kingston and Triangle Pharmacy in Mountaintop. Common Cause is a national organization of 300,000 members who want honest, accountable and responsive government. Common Cause/Pennsylvania is represented in Harrisburg by a professional staff, however, its 15,000 members are volunteers who phone, write, testify, research and lobby in Harrisburg and their communities. Common Cause /Pennsylvania members are a non-partisan citizens lobby, working to make the democratic process open to everyone. It was nearly three decades ago when three folk singers combined talents and made their debut at Greenwich Village's Bitter End coffee house. What began there has grown into a legacy, shared by people all over the world who are now on a first name basis with Peter, Paul & Mary. Their legacy is musical, of course, thanks to such timeless recordings as “Blowin’ In The Wind,” “If I Had A Hammer,” and “Puff, The Magic Dragon.” But the Trio's commitment to the struggles for social justice also lies at the heart of their story, and that commitment is as strong today as ever. Itis the hope of ‘making a difference’ that has guided Peter, Paul & Mary to take on many challenges in the past, and will undoubt- edly continue to inspire them in the future. Their music has built bridges, linking people of different generations as well as different opinions and beliefs. As Peter Yarrow observed “We're a kind of testimony that people can come together. We didn’t make it ‘my’ way, we made it ‘our’ way. We are an experiment that has worked.
