OK, so I couldn't think of something relevant to Harry Connick that rhymes with "Swings" and "Sings," but he did ring up a lot on The State Theater's cash register. In fact, tickets to his February 22nd performance sold out almost immediately. Fortunately for you, we have got our hands on several pair of tickets.
Like most people, I first discovered Harry Connick Jr. on the soundtrack to When Harry Met Sally in 1989. I was an unusual sort of 24-year old (just ask Mark) in that I was crazy about just the kind of music Harry was performing. I regularly went to The Cafe Carlyle to see Bobby Short and was often the youngest person in the room by 25 years. Harry helped to change all that. He helped to bring that music to another generation. He had 3 albums and a Grammy by 1990, and while his career is an amazing thing to remark upon, it's his music that is really moving. After hearing Harry play for the first time, when he was just a guy playing at The Algonquin with no albums and no awards, Tony Bennet said that he could be the next Frank Sinatra. Come have a great dinner and see one of the musical legends of our time...Oh...and have a lot of fun doing it.
We have some premium seats for this extraordinary show. If you would care to make an evening of it, we're offering the tickets for face value of $165.
