GRR 3 – These people proved to be a genuine surprise to me at least. The act consists of four men—one of them made up as a Dutchman, another as a Hebrew, another as a “tough”, and another as an over-grown “kid”. I booked the act for three shows a day as an experiment, stipulating that is they went well we would send them over the circuit. There was so much heavy material that I was obliged to give them one of the strong places in the bill, and they practically made the hit of the show. It is an act that will go anywhere. 25 minutes, open in two and close with about 6 minutes in one.
