DETROIT SWAGGER: Engelbert Humperdinck - Masonic Temple Cathedral Theatre - Wed November 6th 2013 presented by The Crofoot


Yes – you read that correctly…

Engelbert Humperdinck will be coming to play a show at Masonic Temple on November 6th

My hats off to The Crofoot who seem to be the horse to bet on in the Triple Crown of high stakes bookings these days.

After securing Sixto Rodriguez to a huge sellout gig (this weekend) and then reclaiming Adam Ant’s return to the states for his record release in August this buy on Humperdinck is another confident move booking huge non-mainstream artists to play at a The Masonic in Detroit.

I have been impressed that The Crofoot have mastered the art of cross venue booking throughout the years matching an artist to an appropriate  venue across the motorcity.  They have delivered shows to Lager House, Park Bar, Magic Stick/Majestic Theatre, Compuware Plymouth, ROMT, Loving Touch Ferndale, Jumbos (and probably a few more that I am not aware of) and continue to do so with these huge shows at The Masonic Temple Detroit.

I would refer to this as Detroit Swagger…I mean its one thing to bring great shows to town AT YOUR OWN ESTABLISHMENT but when you continuously populate the schedules of a multitude of your competitors venues then you have a unique business model that seems to be working quite well against all logical odds.

My money is on The Crofoot and Engelbert Humperdinck.
