I have always avoided grouping concerts in certain categories for fear of limiting one\u2019s ability to make their own decision on likes and dislikes.\u00a0 However, when we have a situation where some may get shut out of a particular concert they really want to see, I will offer some advice.<\/p>\n
Last week I told you that Josh Turner tickets may sell out quickly once we hit the single release date.\u00a0 Well, it happened in less than two days.\u00a0 I see another situation looming that I want to make you aware of.\u00a0 Another Country and Pop Music legend, Kenny Rogers is coming to the Niswonger for a big Christmas concert on Friday, December 12.\u00a0 His single ticket release date is not until September 10, about three weeks away.\u00a0 As of this writing, there are only about 160 seats left and we have sold 28 already today!\u00a0 I think you get the point: if you want to see Kenny Rogers Christmas show in Van Wert, you might not want to wait until September 10.<\/p>\n
Here is my suggestion.\u00a0 We are currently selling Select Series packages.\u00a0 All you need to do is bundle three or more concerts together and our system will allow you to purchase your seats today, guaranteeing you a seat for Kenny Rogers.\u00a0 By the way, Kenny is bringing a guest female Country star, Linda Davis with him on his Van Wert show.\u00a0 She will be used to compliment Kenny on the many hits songs he sang as duets with the likes of Dolly Parton, Dottie West, and Kim Carnes.<\/p>\n
So, here is my suggestion.\u00a0 If you like Kenny Rogers, I think you would probably like Home Free on January 31.\u00a0They are a Country vocal band of five young men who won Season 4 of NBC\u2019s \u201cThe Sing Off.\u201d\u00a0 Remember, Kenny Rogers started out as a member of The New Christy Minstrels.\u00a0 Another legendary singer you might consider is Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul & Mary.\u00a0 There are your three concerts to bundle together. \u00a0Buy now and guarantee your Kenny Rogers seat and<\/i> save yourself 10 percent by bundling!<\/p>\n
Another concert that is in serious jeopardy of selling out just happens to be our last concert of the season: The Temptations.\u00a0Since \u201cThe Temps\u201d don\u2019t perform at the Niswonger until April 25, the single ticket release date isn\u2019t until January 22 of next year.\u00a0To date, there are only 240 seats remaining and we just sold 36 today.\u00a0Good luck waiting another five months if you want to see The Temptations in Van Wert!<\/p>\n
So here we go.\u00a0Let\u2019s see what else might be appealing to bundle with \u201cThe Temps.\u201d\u00a0 My first thought is Marilyn McCoo and Billy Davis Jr. in their \u201cSolid Gold Christmas Show\u201d on December 19.\u00a0 Not only has this couple sung their own hit songs, they also have a list of legendary songs from their days with \u201cThe Fifth Dimension.\u201d\u00a0 And who doesn\u2019t like a soulful, beautiful Christmas concert six days before Christmas? I have been told by others who have seen their Christmas show that it is absolutely wonderful!\u00a0Big Bad Voodoo Daddy on February 21, 2015, would also be a lively concert to bundle, or, if you are looking for some good laughs, consider comedian Sinbad.<\/p>\n
There you are, my bundling suggestions that will allow you to buy now and avoid getting shut out of a concert in the 1,200 seat Van Wert County Foundation\/Saltzgaber Music Hall this season.\u00a0 I\u2019m sure if you look online or in one of our catalogs, you may find your own bundle that will accomplish your goal.<\/p>\n
Tonight, we honor nearly 200 volunteers who help run the Niswonger Performing Arts Center so smoothly, efficiently and in a friendly way.\u00a0They come from all over the region and we appreciate their loyalty to the arts and especially to the Niswonger.\u00a0 We will honor them at a banquet on the Central Insurance Stage, where we hope to enlighten and inspire them with a private viewing of the season video and share inside information they can share with friends and acquaintances.\u00a0 Feel free to contact the box office for an application if you would be interested in joining a superb group of caring volunteers.<\/p>\n
