Monte Carlo Tour (From Jerry Digney)

Irvin and Kenneth, late 70s.

Just ran across this story from 33 years ago, White Tops, brought back many memories!

After heading up PR for Circus World, then the Red & Blue, and then the Feld-acquired Ice Follies-Holiday on Ice combine, my last assignment for RBBB was helping launch the Monte Carlo show 33 years ago. Of course, both Felds and Allen Bloom were pre-occupied with this for much of 1978--and our advance promo resources were stretched to the max as we had ice shows also on the road and 2 circus units.

Buckles,
Coming off the farm in North Dakota, I had only been in show biz for couple of years in 1978. Do you know how dazzling and bright the light at the end of the tunnel looked in 1978? Little did I realize it was a train coming......
