Patrice Wilding of The Times-Tribune in Scranton also has an interview with Joel.
Rich Howells of the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Weekender has a nice long interview with Joel, and also mentions my incredibly minor role in getting him booked in my home town.
For the record, all I did was persistently leave messages on the voicemail of the person in charge of programming at the venue until she finally called me back. Turned out she was a fan, so I didn’t have to really sell it. But if you want Joel (or Cinematic Titanic) to come to a venue near you, that’s the secret. Just be persistent until you make contact, then do your best to sell it (point the person to the websites, etc.). There’s contact info on Joel’s site and the Cinematic Titanic site. Get ’em together. It might work out.
