The Percy Sledge Show encourages all to bring a little extra to either or both shows to benefit Broyhill Baptist Childrens Home as their representative will be on hand at both shows accepting donations. "Eaglenest only has 796 seats and they are going fast with the Vettes in the Valley Corvette people coming to town, we have made arrangements to get 204 more into the theater and if we get can to that, I hope to make a substancial donation to BCH" said show promoter Duane Goins. "This is not a festival or night club show, but a full blown concert in an alcohol free environment and Percy will be accompanied by a great band with real horns to get that famous sound. We hope to have local veterans from Waynesville present the colors before the show and we intend to recognize them and their military as they are the reason we can come together on occasions like this and still call the wars of the past ' foreign' wars. Backed up by Stuart Virginias` Sunset Drive and their big horn style, & back up singers, its` ‘Tux After Seven’ for the 'Golden Voice of Soul' & this talented group of musicians that have performed with ‘The King of Slow Soul’ at Lincoln Center & Good Morning America. They will play this last stop in the U S before a tour of The Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, France, & Sweden. 'The Percy Sledge Show’ returns to the States in September at Los Angeles Sports Arena. When ‘The Louisiana Legend’ takes to the stage, it will be a grand journey through all the hits that accompanied all the cruisers, young and old, down through the ages. ‘My Special Prayer’ ‘Cover Me’ ‘Take Time to Know Her’ ‘Warm & Tender Love’ ‘First You Cry’ ‘Dark End of The Street’ interspersed with his new music including ‘Big Blue Diamonds’ ‘24/7-365’ & ‘Shining through the Rain’ and his special tribute to all his friends with ‘My Girl’ 'Whiter Shade of Pale’ Sitting on The Dock of The Bay’ ‘Bring It on Home to Me’ ‘Going Home Tomorrow’ & ‘I Wish It Would Rain’. With a sentimental trip through the hits & the years in a style that only Percy Sledge can take you on, when the time comes at the end of the evening, with everyone on their feet and the horns blowing hard, it will be time to take it all home with the most unforgettable live rendition of the timeless classic that has spanned the ages, 'When a Man Loves a Woman’, like only Percy Sledge can deliver.
