Ridgefield, CT Show Rescheduled
Craig Ferguson‘s upcoming live stand up comedy performance in Ridgefield, Connecticut has been rescheduled for Monday, October 8th at 8:00pm.  There were a handful of tickets sold for the show’s original date of June 4th but those tickets will be honored on October 8th.  Additional tickets will soon be available on the Ridgefield Playhouse website.  We’ll have the updated link on our Live Comedy Tour page as soon as it becomes available.  Craig will also be in New York City on October 6th.   There are still some tickets available for that show.  Looking at the dates on the calendar, it appears Craig may be setting up a week of shows on the east coast during the week of October 8-12.  We’ll keep you posted!

Canberra Kerfuffle
Craig’s Tuesday night jokes about the Australian capitol city of Canberra are continuing to cause a stir down under but it seems most are taking the jibes in stride.  The head of Canberra’s tourism agency told the Canberra Times newspaper aid it could be an opportunity to raise the city’s profile and highlight its good properties.  He even invited actor Guy Pearce to recreate a scene from Priscilla, Queen of the Desert in Canberra.  The women involved in the opening segment both said they were a bit surprised by all the fuss and that it was all in good fun.  The woman who lives near the capitol called it “all light-hearted” and her friend, now living in Los Angeles said Canberrans should “get over yourselves, get a sense of humor and hey, at least people are talking about you.”

Happy 65th, Dave

David Letterman turned 65 on April 12th, notes the website SouthCoastToday.com.  The article notes that as Letterman continues his run as dean of the late night talk show hosts, many younger viewers are watching his competitors and other programs like Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim, if they are watching television at all during that time of night.

Betty on Twitter
Betty White on Twitter? Oh, yes. About 200,000 followers gained in a single day? You’d better believe it.  Following Craig?  Not yet.  Get on that, Betty!

Jenkins Sings
For many Americans, their first chance to meet Katherine Jenkins has been on Dancing With The Stars.  But the statuesque Welsh mezzo-soprano has sold millions of albums, thanks to her remarkable voice.  Here’s a sample of what she can do:
