Download PDFLarry was easy to book, showed up on time, and got to know my customers by visiting with several of them before his performance. Farmers are a tough crowd but Larry had their attention from the start. I would recommend Larry to anyone.
Larry helped make this one of our most enjoyable and successful banquets in years. After some disappointing experiences with past performers, it was especially important to find someone who could deliver. We needed someone clean and funny, and Larry came through on all counts. Our board members were thrilled, the audience feedback was entirely positive, and his local humor and audience participation made the evening even more special. Larry helped restore our reputation as a family-friendly event, and we would gladly recommend him.
It was great having Larry perform at our banquet. He had people laughing all throughout his show. I even had some of the audience say they hadn't laugh that hard in a long time. His show was very clean and had a lot of humor to it. He also interacted with the crowd and even the young kids in the crowd. One complement I heard was actually on the radio the next morning, was the radio host said 'Larry was a guy that you would like to bring home and visit with, he just had that way of making you wanting to know more about him'.
Larry provided a great motivational message to our group of store managers. His professionalism throughout the process was topnotch and his promptness / communication was much appreciated. I never had to worry about anything going wrong. Thanks for the great show!
