Las Vegas Comes To Pigeon Forge - Tennessee Shindig

March 19, 2010 · Filed Under Tennessee Smoky Mountains · Comment 

Well many would have thought that Tennessee Shindig owner, Jeff Davis, got the picture of how Pigeon Forge needs good ol hoedown entertainment.  Surprise,Tennessee Shindig is the new home to Las Vegas spun entertainment!

Tennessee Shindig hired a Las Vegas show producer with several connections to various performers and Las Vegas shows, in fact the producer is still producing several Las Vegas shows.  This season Tennessee Shindig will bring on glitter, glitz, and the eccentric.  The Pigeon Forge live entertainment pot is about to be stirred, and we can’t wait to see what comes out in the fixins.

Not sure if this is an attempt to overshadow current Pigeon Forge shows and artists or how this move will play out.  Last year Smoky Mountain Theater started up with “The Temptations Revue”, classic 60’s Motown performances, the show seemed to receive rave reviews.  Smith Family Dinner Theater has Matt Cordell, a tremendous award winning Elvis tribute artist.

So what’s the twist?  Jeff Davis loves change, after all Tennessee Shindig is the 3rd name change for his theater while Wood Grill Buffet and National Park Resort Hotel are both on their second name changes.  So we will watch and report as the show unfolds and the voices of our visitors are heard.
