Riders in the Sky-Christmas The Cowboy Way
Saturday, December 12, 2009

Riders In the Sky “Christmas The Cowboy Way” is a great big western ho-ho-ho from "America’s Favorite Cowboys!”  Those wacky, four-part harmonizing cowboys have spruced up the Spindale House, donned their sequined yuletide outfits, and loosed their vivid imaginations to create a holiday musical fantasy for Saddle Pals of all ages. Christmas The Cowboy Way will feature their unique "brand" of cowboy humor sprinkled with a dash of holiday spice, which includes original songs and a sing along of some traditional holiday classics. All this yuletide charm is augmented with the classic, western favorites Riders have been singing for 30 years. So put on your merry cheer and saddle up to ride! You’re invited to spend a holiday evening celebrating Christmas The Cowboy Way!

Adult: $18 & $22

James Gregory caricatureFriday, January 22, 2010
8:00 pm

James Gregory “The Funniest Man in America”

For over two decades, the unforgettable caricature of veteran comedian James Gregory has stood grinning: his shirt un-tucked, his arms outstretched, a carefree welcome to a down-home, hilarious comedy experience. It’s storytelling at its best. The trademark caricature is the essence of James Gregory’s comedy: rib-tickling reflections on life from the front porch. James is heard weekly on syndicated radio shows such as Rick and Bubba, John Boy and Billy and Bob and Tom. Gregory’s success, like his comedy, is the direct result of the values he grew up with and it is this unique brand of humor that packs the crowds into his sold-out shows. The absence of vulgarity sets James apart and his stories are carefully crafted art. “I have lived long enough to know people, know life”, Gregory reflects. “My comedy is based on my life experiences. It’s real, it’s funny and the audience loves it. That’s why I’m still in business.”

Adults: $27
Students: $22
Groups of 10+: $22

The Lettermen
Saturday, May 29, 2010
7:30
pm

The Lettermen
are Tony Butala, Donovan Tea, and Mark Preston, who together create a sound somewhere between a big band vocal group and early Rhythm and Blues. The Lettermen have been part of America’s music scene for over forty-five years. You may have fallen in love to “Put Your Head On My Shoulder” and “When I Fall In Love,” or perhaps you watched them on Dick Clark’s American Bandstand performing “Going Out of My Head/ Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” or “Hurt So Bad”. These songs, and others, established The Lettermen as the most romantic singing group of the ‘60s.

Adult: $20 & $25
Youth: $5 & $7
