An evening with Ruben Studdard

I was excited to hear that Ruben Studdard was performing in Austin, Texas on May the 7th at One World Theatre. I drive into what appeared to be a castle like venue. Opened the door and I was subdued by the most welcoming and smiling staff that was there to serve. Talk about customer service! I have to rate this spot as ten. You could have sat in row L and still experienced what everyone else was feeling. The show was very intimate. Ruben sung some of the greatest love songs and you know he sang some Luther... My, my, my... Lol. Ruben even did a new song from his new album, " Letters From Birmingham" The "Velvet Teddy Bear" had us snapping our fingers and stomping our feet while he caressed our ears with his melodic tunes. Ruben was smoother than velvet and had jokes for days, he definitely kept us smiling, especially when he begin to talk about how much he loved his Mother. I sent Ruben home with my first book and he in turn blessed me with an autographed copy of his handsome self with the following, To: Shametra God Bless you and thanks for the book. How did you know I love to read? Signed: Ruben Studdard. Ruben is definitely a character... I must say he put on a mighty fine show. Thanks for visiting Austin. I had a great experience.
