Dan Tyminski at B.B. King Club
Please be aware that we have learned that some ticket sales websites are incorrectly advertising that Alison Krauss will appear and perform with Dan Tyminski at the B.B. King Club in New York City on May 23, 2010.
Alison is not and never was scheduled to appear and perform with Dan at the B.B. King Club show. We have attempted to contact these ticket websites and have them remove the mistaken advertisement.
