Marriott Marquis Ballroom

I picked up the [amazing] Stebbins/Rusten In Concert book after finding this unused ticket and noticed my edition doesn't list this show. Was this show cancelled? Perhaps an unadvertised private gig? I'm familiar with boardwalk style knock-off memorabilia where the show is fictitious or a KTSA-era picture is featured for a show from the 60's, but this ticket doesn't stick out as something you'd find at the OCNJ Surf Mall.

Anyone have thoughts or recollections of this event?

Rocker:
Best to message Ian, I guess. He found a couple of "new" shows after his book was published, so there's a possibility that this one was also unknown to him at the time.

Emdeeh:
What city is this ticket for?

Mystery solved: Just checked the Bellagio reference again (which probably should've been my second resort after the coffee table book). Looks like a private corporate event at the Atlanta Georgia Marriott Marquis Ballroom. Until I thought to also look there I couldn't tell if it was Atlanta, NYC, or DC.

I really like the themed background on this ticket. Much more fitting the band than the average Ticketron fare.

Emdeeh:
Definitely a private gig, then. If it had been a public show, I would have been there.
