The San Pedro RV Resort, Benson,AZ




The San Pedro RV Resort, Benson,AZ
The Michael Hargis Show played at the San Pedro RV Resort, Benson, AZ. The clubhouse was decked out in its' best St. Patrick's day decorations, complete with miniature pots of gold. Thanks to Arlene Holcomb and her husband Ed who worked very hard going rig to rig promoting the event. We've known the Holcomb's for years. Back in 2000'ish, Arlene worked with the Chamber of Commerce in Deadwood, SD to bring The Michael Hargis show there to open for the great Chubby Checker. They closed off the streets of Deadwood and erected a 20' stage with all the bells and whistles. 3,500 people showed up. We twisted the night away!
We had a great show last night. Doc Diamond was phenomenal on the sax. Country vocalist Nickel, (Nancy Flowers), wowed them with her rendition of Patsy Cline's, "Let the Teardrops Fall". Michael always goes out in the audience before the show and chats a bit and gets a feel for the group. As usual he found someone to pick on during the show. A woman with a killer handshake received her share of attention from Michael during the show, whether she liked it or not. There were 61 guests, which is pretty good for this venue. The manager, Alice and her staff were great hosts. We also were graced with the presence of Hilda (Mom) & Randy (Dad) Smith, who are great dancers, by the way. Thanks to them for selling albums for us and bringing a group from Sierra Vista, AZ. Everyone danced the night away. It was a fun show. All the Best, Michael & Christi
