Tammy Pescatelli Coming to Rhythm City Casino
Possibly one of the hardest working comedians in the business, Tammy Pescatelli is coming back to where she cut her teeth as a performer and comedian for one night.
On April 29th, Tammy will take over the Rhythm Room at the River City Casino in Davenport for two shows at 6:30pm and 8:30pm.
Between 1990 and 1995, she lived in the Quad Cities, working as a morning radio show co-host, performer, TV spokeswoman and basketball cheerleader, as well as working the comedy club circuit in the area.
Last Comic Standing in 2004, finishing the second and third seasons as a finalist.

And words of warning from a British telecommunications company:
RELATED.
Spoiler alert: less than 25% of this bill actually goes to rebuilding infrastructure.
Policy analyst Brad Polumbo highlighted some of the examples at FEE.org.
1. $10 Billion to Create a ‘Civilian Climate Corp’
The Biden administration proposes spending $10 billion to create a “Civilian Climate Corp.” The White House claims that “This $10 billion investment will put a new, diverse generation of Americans to work conserving our public lands and waters, bolstering community resilience, and advancing environmental justice through a new Civilian Climate Corps.”
2. $20 Billion to ‘Advance Racial Equity and Environmental Justice’
The proposal sets aside a whopping $20 billion more than the latest COVID package spent on vaccines for “a new program that will reconnect neighborhoods cut off by historic investments and ensure new projects increase opportunity, advance racial equity and environmental justice, and promote affordable access.”
AMP’s comedy of errors Lachlan Maddock
Francesco De Ferrari is gone – but AMP’s problems remain.
Like the annual human sacrifices pagan cultures made in service of good crops and fine weather, AMP has a new chief executive. And like everybody before her, Alexis George is eminently qualified for the job. Ms George has 25 years’ experience in financial services and led ANZ’s $4 billion wealth divestment program, including the separation and sale of its life and superannuation businesses. If anybody can do it, it’s her.
But this is a hospital pass. The biggest challenges from De Ferrari’s tenure will remain long after he’s left 33 Alfred Street.
