Between Buffalo and Niagara Falls. Looks like I'll be playing there during 2019. Let me know if you're familiar with the theater. Looks nice on the web (but then again, so do I. Wink )

Not familiar with it, Jim, but only a bit more than an hour from me. Is that with the Ronstadt gig? Give me a date, maybe I can get up and catch you.

Thanks, Don. Yes, it's with Ronstadt Revue and looks like it's gonna be July 26th. I'll make a formal announcement when the date gets closer (these theaters book their schedules a year in advance...)

Meanwhile, if anyone else out there has experience with the theater, please let me know!

Yep..
When Charley Pride was playing there a few years ago, Meriul and I met Ronnie Miller there.... a great old theatre, with good acoustics!

Enjoy!

Jim I live 20 minutes from there. I have been there for shows and have been on stage you are going to love it just the best. Buffalo and Nig Falls are huge music towns I be very surprise if you do not sell out. Hopefully they can get your promo from your web site up that should do it. hope I can make it.

Hi Jim, I spent a huge part of my childhood and Teen years in The Riviera. It is a fantastic old theatre in beautiful downtown North Tonawanda. They have been booking a lot of shows there in the last twenty years,Steve Hackett,Greg Allman,SarahMaclaughan,also a lot of Tribute bands. I played there with my Grateful Dead Band about 10 years ago and it was great! They have what is known around here as The Mighty Wurlitzer a massive 3 or 4 tier organ hooked up to all kinds of mechanical instruments under the stage, you gotta check it out! The organ can rise up to almost stage level and they still have organ concerts there! I live nearby and work in a music store also nearby, if you or your group need anything when you’re here or you want to have the best Steak and Cheese sub in town,pm me I’d be glad to help. I love Your playing and also love Linda’s music I will probably be there anyway feel free to contact!
