“Sadly in recent years, some of the performers and other major figures from the earlier days of this period have passed, and as the age of those remaining advances, it is becoming more urgent to capture their recollections before it’s too late” he said. “My aim is not only to pay tribute to the performers and venues, but also preserve and properly document this incredible story which, in reality, is part of our country’s cultural heritage”. The book will be filled with interviews with the galaxy of stars that were the product of Club Entertainment, many of whom became (and remain) household names, as well as focusing on many individual venues. Kristian also promises lots of photos. “It will be a great ‘coffee table’ book; I really want to focus on the story of how Clubs were part of the journey. I think lots of people will be interested; I believe it’s important. The story needs to be told” Mark said. Mark has produced a detailed prospectus, which is currently being sent to Clubs nationwide. It includes an exclusive discount ‘pre-sale’ opportunity which is only available to Clubs. Upon publication, the book will not be available for purchase via usual retailers; instead, Mark intends to sell the book via internet and also through selected venues, with a financial incentive for distributors (i.e. Clubs).
