SURFSIDE BEACH, SC (WMBF) - Legends in Concert in Surfside Beach rolled out the red carpet Sunday afternoon for some of their biggest fans during a special matinee.

Legend's offered discounted tickets and concessions as a part of their efforts in the Reject the Recession campaign, a program encouraging local businesses to give back to the community.

Operations Manager Jason Aiesi believes everyone could use a break during tough times.

"We decided to make some blockbuster deals for people so they could find a kind of silver lining in this cloud that we're going through," he said. "I think it gives people a wonderful escape for a two hour time period."

The two-hour show features look-a-like personalities that mirror the singing and dancing of some of music's greatest legends. Aiesi is hoping through providing entertainment at a reasonable price more people will come back.

"This will provide an incentive for folks to come on up and just get some relief and enjoy our music," said Aiesi.
