Tickets are now on sale for Richard Carpenter live at the Carpenter Center at Cal State Long Beach. The event is Saturday, March 20th.
This is the "Top of the world" benefit concert. Last year's event sold out and it was terrific. While the ticket price is steep ($150.00), you get a concert and complete gourmet dinner.
Last year was special, as Richard was very talkative. It was easy to approach him. Fans were asking him specific questions, and he was happy to answer them. He roams the crowd (since the stage is very small). In 2003, Richard played five tunes, and even accompanied his son on a unreleased Carpenter gem.
Since Richard very rarely performs any longer, this should be a special night. Call the box office for tickets, since the web site has yet to announce they are on sale.
