Its a HUGE selling point for some in my household

In the past, we've had a Beastie Boys cover (twice I think), a Tom Petty cover, and a general 80s cover. All of those appeal to the same folks that Cory Morrow (or Roger Creager) do.....folks who were in college in the 90s and early 00s. Specifically guys. We tried to improve that a little last year with Cody Canada, and Son Volt a couple years before, but that only moves the demo a little bit.

A Swift cover appeals to a completely different demo, and one that has proven that they'll show up and spend money (which is the point). Last I heard, Red sold out their arboretum show in record time, and some other Swift cover had their tickets being scalped at the Elks Club earlier this year.

Trying to sell what the people want.

Tickets appear to be $20. Seems like a fair deal for a concert. It does appear to be a fundraiser.

Sweet. I'll be the tall guy in a cowboy hat working the Kids Zone. Stop bye and say hi. PROST!

What a day.

Congrats on a successful turnout! Thanks for everything you & the club do for the community - I know a lot of hard work goes into this each year.
