Legendary R&B group to perform at AmCham Macau annual ball
(Macao, November 23, 2011) – The most successful group in black music history – The Temptations – will be performing at the AmCham Macau Annual Ball at The Venetian® Macao-Resort-Hotel on Saturday, December 3, 2011, at 7 pm. “The Venetian Macao is a strong supporter of AmCham Macau and the work they do for Macau,” says Edward Tracy, President and Chief Executive Officer, Sands China Ltd. “We are extremely pleased to be hosting them for their annual ball this year, and are especially excited about bringing The Temptations to perform in their honour.” The Temptations were in the heyday of their success in the 1960s and 70s, and produced many hit singles, including “My Girl,” “Just My Imagination (Running Away with Me)” and “Papa Was a Rollin’ Stone.” The Temptations were a part of Berry Gordy, Jr.’s extremely successful “Motown Sound,” whose associated record labels included other hit acts like the Jackson 5, Marvin Gaye and The Supremes, among many others. This year, The Temptations and Motown are celebrating 50 years of “America’s number one male group.”
The American Chamber of Commerce in Macau promotes the development of trade, commerce and investment between the USA and Macau and provides a forum in which the American business community in Macau can identify and discuss common commercial interests in Macau. Vice Chair Reggie Martin says, “AmCham stands at the forefront of development in Macau. With new American-based corporations establishing themselves in Macau, we provide insight and business connectivity that is unrivalled by any other international chamber. We stand as one of the most influential chambers in Macau, and from retail to
manufacturing, our members represent a diversity of both interests and relationships.”
