This has been a busy week for me, show-wise, and I'm not finished!!

Went to see The Duttons on Monday night. As always, they did not disappoint!! I am always amazed and impressed at the level of talent in this family!!

Tuesday morning it was Mike Radford's Remember When. What fun!!! Mike really has a fun show of looking back and reminiscing about "the good ol' days", and my buddy Joe Gallo is such a great addiition with his rich singing voice!!

Tuesday evening I was going to see Jimmy Osmond's American Jukebox Show. Stood in line forever only to be told I would be in the last row -- or she could give me a GOOD seat for Thursday night. So I opted to wait until Thursday and be on the 3rd row!! I ended up Legends in Concert instead. First time I'd seen this show, and it will not be the last. VERY good show!! (Especially from my front row seat!!)

Last night I just vegged in front of the television and watched some of the 9/11 programming.

Tonight I'm heading to see Jimmy Osmond's show. I'm really looking forward to it. Keep hearing great stuff about it.

Friday evening I'm leaning toward Shepherd of the Hills. Haven't been there in several years. Saturday night...well, who knows!! I think Horn Dawgs are playing at Ain't Misbehavin' theater that night, so may hop on over there.

Whew!!! I enjoy having a job where I get to help people decide what shows they go to -- gives me an excuse to go to lots of different shows so I can give first-hand information!!!

Thanks for telling us about the recent shows you've seen.
We are going to see The Duttons this Saturday afternoon. My husband and I also love this show.

We have reservations to see Mike Radford's Remember When the first week in October.

And Legends, the first week in November. So I appreciate your reviews.

BC, don't know where you work but do you think they could use a "floor sweeper" with the same benefit that you have? LOL I'd love to be able to get into all the shows on a freebie!! Can't think of anything nicer.

Glad you got to see Legends which just happens to be my favorite & most visited show! Ain't Elvis grand????:D :p :p :D
To get a front row seat that late, you must have just needed one! I don't know whether my old heart could take a front row seat or not!:D

Actually, one of the benefits of working in Branson, depending on where you work, is discounted or free show tickets. To some shows. There are still some I have to pay a good amount for -- some even full price. But the discounts are nice. Especially good with my job since I have influence on what shows people see. And whether or not I get a discount, or the size of the discount, has NOTHING to do with how much I like a show, or if I recommend it to others. There are some which I can in to for free which I wouldn't recommend to my dog. There are others which I have to pay an arm and a leg for which I would still suggest to people. It just depends on the shows.

Yes, Elvis was great!! Actually, my original seat was on the 5th row. The two end seats on the front center row stayed empty through the entire first half. The lady seated next to me said that she had seen a couple sit there and then move to the back. She said they were still sitting in the back, so I moved to the front for the 2nd half -- which was the best since Liberace picked on me and Elvis was so much fun!!!

I hope Liberace will still be at Legends in mid November when I'll be up next. I've never seen him. 'course, I'd be looking forward to the show even if nobody but Elvis was there. Hey, that's an idea! Why doesn't he just do the whole thing by himself?? I'd love that, but as much energy as he expends, it'd be questionable as to whether anybody could last 2 hours at that rate! Enjoy your free shows. I think you have a wonderful job WITHOUT knowing what it is. ha
