ABOUT US
Founding Partner - Gerry McCambridge
ShowTickets4Locals was conceived and created in 2006 by Gerry McCambridge. He was the star and executive producer of the NBC TV show "The Mentalist" and recently was on the reality TV series "Phenomenon." Gerry was on the road performing 160 shows a year. He wanted a way to spend more time at home with his wife and 6 children so they moved to Las Vegas in 2005. His first Vegas job was a 12 show-3 week contract at the Rampart Casino. Due to overwhelming tickets demand, he stayed for 47 sold out weeks. From there, he moved to the strip and headlined at the Legendary Stardust until they closed. Gerry currently headlines nightly at Hooters Casino Hotel. On June 7th 2008, Gerry just performed his 500th show.
Gerry was looking for a way to give back to the Vegas locals in appreciation for supporting his show, so he started ShowTickets4Locals.
