Hola Bill,
I wanted to let you know that I am the newly elected president of the Bill Santiago Fan Club - San Francisco Chapter. The three of us in the club watched your performance on Comedy Central this past Friday night and decided we needed to unite ourselves in order to promote you and enlighten our gente with you as our leader!!
Then, last Saturday night, I went to see my friend Jacqueline Rago perform at La Peña in Berkeley, and walking out I picked-up a calendar of events for Jan/Feb 2004. Noting that you will be there on 2/6, I immediately informed the other club members and we will be bringing in many more future fan club members in February. We're even talking about making buttons.
On behalf of myself and the club, te deseamos unas fiestas felices y muchas
bendiciones en 2004.
xo,
betty

Bill came to us as part of a program curated by and featuring Culture Clash. He absolutely won over our audience in a very tough "house" and had them right where any politically oriented comedic performer would want an audience - right in the center of his hand. (He worked on a stage that is separated from the audience by 40 feet of water and he still communicated with the crowd as if he were in an intimate coffee house. We were amazed.) His material was timely, topical and intelligent. The audience was very responsive and we are seriously interested in bringing him back - quite possibly next year as a lead in to the fall elections. That night our audience was a mix of folks of different generations and different ethnic backgrounds. In spite of the edgy quality of his work, we did not get any negative reactions and heard only positive reactions during his routine and from people afterward.
Grand Performances is Southern California's premier free, outdoor performing arts presenter and is based at California Plaza in the heart of Los Angeles new Downtown. We are an award-winning arts organization (having received an award from the Association of Performing Arts Presenters that they had previously given to the Kennedy Center) renown for the diversity of our audience and our programming.
Please feel free to contact me if I can be of further help.
Sincerely,
Michael Alexander, Executive & Artistic Director

Hi Bill,
Thanks so much for performing. You were brilliant, politically astute, funny
as all hell... I don't know how much political comedy you generally do, but
I'd say it's your calling.
