“I have received nothing but rave reviews from our audience after William’s ‘Those Were The Days’ concert!!! They were singing along after just the first few bars of the opening song and didn’t stop singing or smiling for the next 2 hours. William’s enthusiasm, musicality, charisma and knack for story telling gave our audience an incredible evening of entertainment! I have never seen so many excited, happy faces and heard so many positive comments during intermission. There were multiple requests from all directions to have him return to our stage! So – he will be the opening concert for our next season, performing one of his other shows, The Neil Diamond Story! He IS the great American troubadour!” – Linda Leyda, VP & Program Coordinator for the Crawford County Community Concert Association, Bucyrus, OH.
