Hi,
I am hoping someone might be able to help me. A while back on Ebay, there was someone selling a video of a ventriloquist show filmed in Los Angeles in 1979. On the bill for the night was a gentleman who performed with a mechanical acrobat name Ioni. I wrote to the gentleman and he confirmed it was Ioni. So I thought I will bid on this tape....well, I forgot and the auction ended. So, I am now looking for a copy of this show. I thought maybe someone on this forum might know where I might buy a copy. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks, veegates |

I suggest contacting Frego at:

Here is information on that particular HBO special from 1979. I had several special friends who performed(Stu Scott and Jay Nemeth both fellow Las Vegans). This show was quite memorable for me since it contained a tribute to Bergen(whose final performance I attended) I have a VHS master tape from that show in storage. I'm not sure who has it for sale. Hope this helps.
