Tour Heads West
After a sometimes wintry series of shows in the eastern part of the country, Craig Ferguson & Company have moved west for the next string of stand up, with stops in Vancouver, Santa Rosa, San Francisco, Reno and Temecula, CA before heading back east. You can see the full lineup of shows on our Live Comedy Tour page. As we mentioned in our last post, the Valentine’s Day shows in Boston have been rescheduled on March 1st. We’ve been told the show times will remain the same and all tickets will be honored on the new date. We still have no official work on when the Providence show originally scheduled for March 1st will be rescheduled, but attempts are being made to find a new date. We’ll pass along the word as soon as we hear an update.
Great PicturesAlong with the official tour photo of Josh Robert Thompson on stage at left, some of the best photos from the past week came from fans @ohhaimegan, @KaitlynLeibman and @BobbySko, plus the folks at the Sands Bethlehem Events Center posted a bunch of great photos on their Facebook page. Thanks to several hobos who pointed these photos out to us.
Show Reviews
