“Almost a year before the date, a fan called to purchase tickets.”

“…we were able to cut marketing and advertising during the last two weeks because we had already sold out!”

“…extremely well run show that brought the audience to its feet for two sold-out performances.”

“Steve is an excellent singer and entertainer and the quality of his performance was first-rate.  The crowd loved him…”

“…Steve was a knockout.  His show was everything advertised and much more.”
