It will be a memorable evening, and I am truly looking forward to seeing old friends, and putting on a great show for our veterans, active duty and all of us that owe so much gratitude to them.”

Tony Orlando is a Grammy nominated artist, with 15 Top 40 Hits, two Platinum albums, three gold albums, and millions of copies sold.  The 1973 #1 Billboard song “Tie A Yellow Ribbon” went on to become the theme song for Orlando and an anthem for hope, reunion, and rejuvenation in America.
