Season for entertainment shaping up

As the white fluffy stuff starts to invade our lives, I can't help but think about how the entertainment season is already starting to blossum. Of course the Kenny Chesney tickets are on sale for the big Lambeau Field June 11 concert for what may be turn out to be the biggest concert in Green Bay history. If 50,000 people buy tickets like we hope they do, it will undoubtedly be the biggest entertainment day this area has ever seen having the same impact basically as a Packers game.

Besides that, we have landed another Cirque du Soleil concert for spring. This one is called Dralion. The title gets its name from a combo of Dragon and Lion. We've had two Cirque shows in the past at the Resch and both have done extremely well. The entertainers and the visual show are second to none. Tickets for that go on sale shortly. We also have the Brad Paisley concert in January along with our usual mix of Harlem Globetrotters at the end of this month and Jeff Dunham as well which is getting pretty close to being a sell out. Also this winter you can expect Disney On Ice and Monster Trucks which I'm hearing will have an extremely unique selling point this year. The key word is extreme! And then of course, we'll host some of the best college hockey in the country as the NCAA Divsion 1 Men's Ice Hockey Championship Midwest Regional will be at the Resch at the end of March.

Things seem to be going pretty well, but caution is still our best bet as far as booking shows that are too risky. Everyone still keeps an eye on the economy. We'll continue to bring you the best shows we can. Soon there will be something going on every weekend at our complex and many times at all 3 buildings - Resch Center, Brown County Arena and Shopko Hall. Gamblers and GB Phoenix are no exception. If you're bored, you certainly can't blame it on us!
