Say It With Song: ‘Vegas Strong’
Beasley Media Group will present Vegas Strong: A Night of Healing tomorrow evening at Orleans Arena. The concert will honor all victims, survivors and first responders from the October 1st tragedy and feature country superstars Big & Rich and Cam, plus a surprise performance from one of Country’s most renowned acts!
“Due to the kindness and support of the Beasley family, Mega Country Recording Artists, the Country Community and The Orleans Arena/Boyd Gaming we have the opportunity to present A Night of Healing for affected families and also give special thanks to our First Responders,” said Tom Humm, VP/Market Manager of Beasley Media Group Las Vegas. “It’s our privilege and honor to help in any small way we can as proud members of this community. Vegas Strong!”
John Candelaria, Operations Director of Beasley Las Vegas, added, “I’m so proud of the Las Vegas community. We have heavy hearts, but as displayed the night of the shootings, we have yet again banded together to support one another. I’m forever thankful to Big & Rich, Cam and the surprise secret performance from a Country mega-superstar group for agreeing to perform at this free event to benefit the Steve Sisolak Las Vegas Victims’ Fund.” To date, the fund has raised nearly 11 million dollars.
Candy added, “I am thrilled with the response. When we announced free tickets were available for download, all 4,500 tickets were reserved in less than two hours. Orleans Arena distributed 2,000 tickets to first responders and their families. This will be a wonderful night of healing through music. This event would not be possible without the hard work of Market Manager Tom Humm, Executive Vice President of Programming Justin Chase, Beasley Country Format Captain Donald Stout, Boyd Gaming and the incredible staff of Orleans Arena. As Mayor Goodman stated, ‘We are a close-knit community and will not allow this event to define or deter us.'”
