Death Cab for Cutie

Event Time: 8:00 p.m.
Dates: Monday, July 09, 2012 - Monday, July 09, 2012
Location: Gillioz Theatre - 325 Park Central East - Springfield, Missouri 65806 -
Admission: start at $36

By their seventh studio album, many bands are running out of creative steam and original ideas. But in the case of Death Cab for Cutie, nothing could be further from the truth. Codes and Keys is singular in the quartet's catalog when it comes to sonic exploration and lyrical ambition. If anything, the band has never sounded more excited to experiment with textures, words, sounds and even the process of recording itself.

IF TRAVELING FROM THE SPRINGFIELD/BRANSON AREA: just take I-65 to the South St./Sparta Exit, and travel east. About 11 miles past Sparta, MO, you will see a sign on the right for the Garden of Dreams.
Admission: $10 at the gate, $8 presale (or with receipt from participating merchant, such as our FEATURED MERCHANT: Zio's Italian Kitchen in Springfield, MO), $5 for kids 12 & under, and Age 2 & under are FREE

The towering shade trees of the Garden of Dreams will provide the perfect backdrop for artisans, free entertainment, and delicious food. Choirs and other entertainers will perform from below in the wedding grotto, and the Christmas melodies will fill the Garden as guests enjoy a little shopping and a lot of fun! There’s a hayride to the top of the hill to see our 40ft decorated Cedar Christmas tree! Kids and grownups alike will love taking a stroll through the Christmas Cave (a comfortable 60 degrees!) to drop off a letter to Santa in our very special mailbox- you see, our cave is so deep, the mailbox runs right to the North Pole! And all those letters will be waiting for jolly old St. Nick after he returns home from taking pictures with our guests! - - The Garden of Dreams was created by Bill “Doc” Roston and his wife Judy over the last 19 years, and stands as a tribute to what can happen when creative vision, hard work, passion, and resplendent nature come together. Springfield locals know of Doc's work from the Springfield Botanical Gardens in Close Memorial Park, where the "Dr. Bill Roston Native Butterfly House" has been named after him. - - The Garden is nestled at the center of 288 acres of pristine Ozark land, replete with springs, waterfalls, grotto, covered bridge, spring-fed lake, and reception pavilion. The Garden is also home to Honey Branch cave, a former show-cave with a near level grade making it perfect for casual exploration. The many rare and lovely plants in the gardens and grotto make The Garden of Dreams a splendid site for weddings, corporate or church retreats, family gatherings, parties, or any special occasion. -
