Hi all. We have so much good news to share with you. But first, please accept our gratitude and appreciation to all the guests who attended last night’s Sounds of the Legends Dance. The dance floor was rocking as Richie and his guests “Rocked us through the Decades”.

We were treated to awesome harmony by The Rich Tones and the great dance numbers sung by Jessica Philbin and Billy Losey. To top it off, the Sugar and Spice dancers performed with amazing precision and skill. Judging from the smiles and feedback from our guests, we know that all had a wonderful time. At this dance, we were able to donate $600 to The Villages Friends of the Library. To date, the Sounds of the Legends has donated a total of $19,625 to local charities. Woohoo!!

We are happy to announce that the January 18th Sounds of the Legends ticket box office is now open. For this event, we are planning a Winter White show/dance. All guests are requested to wear white. And now……drumroll, please…. Richie’s special guests are the The Allan Darcy Duo. Allan Darcy’s high-energy sax playing and crowd interaction will certainly bring joy and excitement to the evening. Allan performs both in and out of The Villages, singing at club events, restaurants and the Villages Polo Club.

We expect that this show will sell out quickly, therefore, we encourage you to select your seats as soon as possible. For your convenience, the Ticket Tailor link will maintain a waiting list.

For a night of high energy entertainment go to tickettailor.com/events/soundsofthelegendsshow to be a part of the fun. Email Eileen at eileenlanna@gmail.com should you need any assistance. A portion of the proceeds will go to The Buffalo Scholarship Foundation of The Villages.

The fun keeps on coming…..The Rich Tones have been invited to perform with Mark Steven Schmidt at the Joke Joint on December 22, 2024, from 5 – 7 PM for “A Magical Musical Christmas Party.” For reservations, call 352-871-0909. Also, Richie will compete in the Orange Blossom Opry Superstar Competition on Feb. 13th. He would love your support, as the audience will be the judges.
