Hey there
Just wanted to chime in about the no-shows. It's very unfortunate that these things happen and I hate to disappoint people with things like this. Lance, we found out about 2 days ago due to a double booking and the moment we found out, he was pulled from the Joe's pub website and press release. Lance made a very nice donation to the foundation as well as some autographed books to auction off.
Ashley Parker Angel was apparently injured last week in Hairspray and I had assumed he would still be able to do the show, but he never responded to phone calls, so I held out hope he would still show up.
Yes the Hairspray boys were supposed to do the NKOTB medley, which had been rehearsed, but with all the drop-outs, would just not have been a good thing (so we've already asked them to plan on it for Vol 3).
The Broadway Boys send me a list of the people who are confirmed for the concert a few weeks in advance, and I put them on the press release. I was just never informed of any changes, so I advertised what I knew.
Curtis Holbrook had to be in LA and was supposed to sing Livin on a Prayer, which is why Rob Evan came in at the last minute to do it. And finally Kate Shindle called me the morning of the show to tell me about her bout with some bad food poisoning. Kate ROCKED the last concert and I know she would have been there if she could have been. - Again, sorry for the no-shows, but it seems like a good time was still had by all.
