"I had the pleasure of working with Brian Hodge when I performed at an amazing concert presented by Jupiters Hotel & Casino at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre.
This concert was incredibly important to me, as it was myfirst performance in Australia in 15 years. Thanks to Brian’s talent and experience, the show was huge success, with tickets selling out in just four minutes. Brian was able to handle any issues that came up during the show and made sure that my fans, who had been waiting so many years to see me perform, got the unforgettable concert experienced they deserved"

Having worked with him, it was very obvious that Brian was a highly experienced and gifted individual with an incredible talent for managing major concerts and entertainment venues. The sold-out concert was an undeniable success, and based on the audience’s overwhelming positive response, I have no doubt that all of the fans enjoyed the experience as well.
