 What pledge people are saying about Tommy ...
 
We just did it in March. We offered a pair of tickets to a studio concert in June
  at $120 a pair. Big success – we sold out the studio, (300 people).
  Maura Daly Phinney, KPBS/San Diego

  Take it from a long-time guitar player...Tommy is one of those gifted guitarists
  that makes you want to sell your guitar... He is so extraordinary as a player and  
  performer, all you have to do is reach the players in your audience and it should
  work for you...with tickets of course...
  We have him coming for a concert in July. He has performed several Living-Room
  concerts for the radio program Echoes, that's where I offered the tickets (I'm in FM   
  pledge right now). We'll broadcast the TV special in June.
  Paul Zavinsky, WITF/Harrisburg

  If you have tickets he will do great for any market I would say. We are on our
  second go around here in Grand Rapids. He is definitely the guitar players, guitar
  player. You cannot watch him and not be in awe. When he was here last fall he
  received about 10 standing ovations during the show. He engages the audience
  like not many artists can. The long and the short of it, in my opinion, go for it.
  Jim Rademaker, WGVU/Grand Rapids

  We've pledged around Tommy three times at VPT and each time has gotten better
  and better. We have an event coming up next month and have moved 400 tickets
  (sold out).  Love the Tommy!
  Brennan J. Neill, Vermont Public Television

 
HERE'S VPT's Promo:
 


  Tommy Emmanuel Center Stage in a 1.5 hour footprint (3 breaks) raised $25,951
  for a DPM of $858.36. Definitely rates a 5.
  This is all about tickets, as only 7 donors opted for the DVD and 12 for the
  DVD/CD set. The rest went to tickets to see Tommy live at KVIE in July.
  In hindsight we could have asked for more for the tickets, because they all went
  during the show. We offered the pair of tickets and a DVD of footage from that 
  live show in July for $300 (the producer is taping for a possible future show).
  Once we realized how well it was going, we did an ad lib for $1000 with
  guaranteed front row seating. In the last break, one gentleman called requesting
  4 seats at that level.
  David Lowe, KVIE/Sacramento

  Tommy Emmanuel (live, tickets) 22 calls $2,685 Rates a 4
  Note: We didn't move all of the free tickets on the first go, but we'll try again. This
  is not bad for a performer that is likely unfamiliar to our audience, and the show is
  fun.
  David Thiel, WILL/Urbana

  Excellent numbers with Tommy Emmanuel with tix to in-studio concert; Monday
  12/7 - 7:30pm. Tommy Emmanuel Center Stage live w/ tix $13000 Rate a solid 4.
  Kurt Mendelshon , KQED/San Francisco

  Ok, so I was keeping my fingers crossed for last nights debut of Tommy Emmanuel.
  It worked  :-)  We oversold our Sunday afternoon studio concert and are adding a
  second one that evening.
  Debbie Hamlett, South Carolina ETV
