Facing pressure from QSRs and other competitors, the family-dining segment continues to focus on its core competencies – namely breakfast and lunch – to meet consumers' needs.
In addition, sales in family dining's all-important breakfast daypart continue to face increased pressure as many quick-service restaurants turn to this area to boost their revenues. The close to 39,000 family-style restaurants in the United States recorded sales of more than $13 billion in 2009, a 2.7 percent decrease from the year prior, according to Chicago- based research firm Technomic.
"Family-dining restaurant operators have been struggling in this segment for a long time because they have not stayed relevant," adds Bonnie Riggs, restaurant industry analyst for the NPD Group, a research firm based in Port Washington, N.Y. "The heaviest restaurant traffic is from people between 25 and 34 years old, which is not the typical family-dining demographic."
Amidst this news, operators in this segment are seeking to reinvent themselves. For example, IHOP, a leader in family-style dining, launched the IHOP Café in Houston. This fast-casual concept focuses on seasonal and short-term menu offerings. IHOP's traditional outlets also have revamped menus, providing a wider variety of items that are lower in fat, calories and carbohydrates. The chain experienced 5.7 percent sales growth from 2008 to 2009, Technomic reports.
Family-dining icon Denny's tested a quick-serve spinoff Fresh Express on California State University's San Bernardino campus. In addition, drive-thrus were added to two franchised sites last year, according to Technomic.
As consumers keep close tabs on their spending and limit dinner dining, there continues to be a proliferation of value-oriented breakfast/lunch family-style operations. "Family-dining operations need to reinvent themselves. With increased competition, it is becoming more difficult to grow business in the morning-meal time slot," Riggs says.
Yet the breakfast segment offers the greatest potential for these operators. "Morning meals have accounted for 60 percent of restaurant industry growth," Riggs says. "As a result, there is a big opportunity for operators to capitalize on this daypart. Nearly 50 percent of the breakfast segment growth comes from those 50 to 64 years of age, typically a key target group for midtier operators [like family-dining restaurants]."
New independent concepts and updated chains with innovative menus will provide more visibility and increase sales potential in the family-dining segment.
Case Study:
Brunch Café,
Fox River Grove, Ill.
Among the many restaurants foregoing the dinner daypart that are popping up around the country, Brunch Café has created a unique niche.
One part traditional and one part gourmet, the breakfast/lunch menu at Brunch Café's northwest suburban Illinois locations in Fox River Grove, Roselle and McHenry appeals to a broader demographic than a typical family-dining restaurant.
"At our locations, we have families, businesspeople from surrounding office parks and kids from area schools. We also do a strong carryout business," says Peter Revel, Brunch Café's co-owner and manager. "Breakfast and lunch appeal to everyone, especially when there's a twist on it."
Unlike traditional family-dining restaurants that focus on comfort food, Brunch Café specializes in tweaking typical dishes and emphasizing the presentation of its food.
The difference is evident when customers first walk in the door. Three breakfast and three lunch specials are freshly plated and on display as well as described on a chalkboard nearby. "The first thing most customers do is walk over to check out the day's specials. There are some customers who have admitted they've never even opened our menu and only order what's on special," Revel says. "[Much of the appeal is because] we don't sacrifice the presentation just because we only offer breakfast and lunch."
Brunch Café also offers on- and off-site catering, which can extend into the evening hours. "We've catered weddings, in addition to bridal and baby showers, at our locations and off site," Revel says. "Catering is an important aspect of foodservice operations today, because the demand is there."
When Revel's brother-in-law Andy Zatos opened the café with his brother Ted in February 2008, they sought to fulfill a need for affordable dining in the area. The brothers knew the region and its demographic well, having owned Kojak's, a popular restaurant serving hot dogs and Italian beef sandwiches in nearby Cary, for the past 14 years. Revel, who has worked in the restaurant industry for two decades, came on board as partner.
All three locations are about 4,400 square feet. The Fox River Grove site seats 140. The 160-seat Roselle location opened in August 2009, and the McHenry site, which is the largest with 175 seats, opened for business last month.
One advantage to having limited hours is a happier staff. "More people like to work days rather than evenings, so we provide a prime shift," Revel says. Each location has about 30 employees.
Some may question the timing of opening a restaurant during the recession, but the Brunch Café has been able to capitalize on the down economy. "People know they won't have to spend as much for breakfast and lunch as they would for dinner," Revel says. "You can take a family of five out for breakfast and spend less than half of what dinner would cost."
Brunch Café's philosophy is that value doesn't have to compromise quality. "We keep everything consistent in terms of food purchasing. Even when items are out of season and cost more, we don't adjust our prices. Fortunately, business has been steady, and we haven't had to make any changes to compensate for the economy," Revel says.
The staff at Brunch Café spends a lot of time working the menu to ensure it remains relevant in the eyes of its customers. Popular specials are regularly rotated onto the menu. By the same token, dishes that are not selling well are quickly removed from the lineup. "When we first sat down to create the menu, we were looking to include different items that weren't available anywhere else," Revel says. "We did a lot of research and went through the necessary trial and error."
Andy Zatos is credited for the unique spin of Brunch Café's dishes. Best sellers include a stuffed waffle filled with strawberry cream cheese and fresh strawberries and topped with whipped cream and morestrawberries; breakfast sliders made with scrambled eggs, a sausage patty and cheese; portabella and asparagus benedict made with portabella mushroom caps, asparagus and two poached eggs; and the stuffed potato pancake, which is filled with scrambled egg, bacon and onion and topped with cheddar.
"We focus on fresh ingredients and like seasonal themes," Revel says. "Offering two dayparts instead of three gives us more flexibility with our menu."
Brunch Café's kitchen is void of the heavy-duty broilers, sauté stations and stoves that are prevalent in family-dining operations that offer dinner. Instead, the 2,200-square-foot kitchen contains a 24-foot line. All pancakes, crepes, French toast and potatoes are prepared on two 6-foot grills, which get the most use out of all the equipment in the back of the house. A six-burner stove and convection oven are also on the cook line.
Cold prep tables are part of the omelet station, sandwich station and prep line. These hold ingredients in six-pan containers.
Becoming a standout in the saturated family-dining segment is no small feat. By providing unique twists on traditional favorites, offering full-service catering and keeping tabs on customer preferences, Brunch Café has distinguished itself among its competitors.
Key Equipment for Family Dining
E&S Considerations
Energy efficiency: With refrigeration-unit doors frequently opened and closed during peak periods, it is important that this equipment is energy-efficient. This can help operators keep a handle on electricity costs.
Reliability: To maintain proper holding temperatures, family-dining operations rely heavily on equipment such as hot holding cabinets, steam tables and cold prep tables. It is vital that these units maintain proper temperatures consistently so as not to compromise food safety.
Utility requirements: Since a large number of family-style restaurants are being opened in pre-existing locations, it is important to make sure equipment's utility requirements can be accommodated by the site.

GOP guv hopefuls duke it out
The Colorado Statesman
The three Republican gubernatorial candidates who debated on Thursday said they would work to repeal gun-control measures signed last year by Gov. John Hickenlooper and all three added that they would consider working to expand the rights of Coloradans to carry and use firearms in the state.
DeGette presses for women in higher office
The Colorado Statesman
Often, when she speaks to groups, says U.S. Rep. Diana DeGette, a Denver Democrat, she'll ask how many people there have thought about running for office. Nearly all the men will raise their hands and almost none of the women do, she says, and that's a problem.
That disparity, she said on Tuesday at a panel discussion on women's professional advancement in Denver, has identifiable causes and requires a determined approach to ensure more women not only hold office but start political careers early enough to accumulate the seniority it takes to wield significant power.
Colorado Republicans revved up about races for U.S. Senate, governor
The Colorado Statesman
BOULDER — Former state Sen. Mike Kopp muscled his way to the top of the ballot at the GOP State Assembly on Saturday in what will be a four-way Republican gubernatorial primary. Delegates also awarded a primary slot to Secretary of State Scott Gessler, who placed just behind Kopp in the vote, for a shot at running against incumbent Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper. But three other Republicans vying for the June 24 primary fell short.
Surprise GOP primaries in congressional districts
The Colorado Statesman
BROOMFIELD – State Sen. Scott Renfroe edged Weld County District Attorney Ken Buck for the top spot on the Republican primary ballot for the open 4th Congressional District seat at a GOP district assembly on Friday.
At other district assemblies held the same day, challengers surprised U.S. Rep. Scott Tipton and U.S. Rep. Doug Lamborn by winning enough delegate votes to force primaries against the incumbents.
Coffman trounces Waller for topline AG nomination
Waller barely makes ballot; Ken Buck briefly mentioned for AG
The Colorado Statesman
BOULDER — Cynthia Coffman, the state's chief deputy attorney general, on Saturday won top-line designation over state Rep. Mark Waller, R-Colorado Springs, in the GOP primary to replace her boss, Attorney General John Suthers, who is term-limited.
Coffman scored 69.26 percent of the delegate vote at the Republican State Assembly at the Coors Events Center on the University of Colorado at Boulder campus, while Waller's 30.74 percent vote barely cleared the 30-percent threshold required for a primary slot.
Dem delegates unite around incumbents
The Colorado Statesman
More than 1,200 Democratic delegates poured into the Colorado Convention Center Saturday, April 12 for the 2014 State Assembly, nominating a slate of statewide candidates to battle against Republicans this November.
The anticipation in the air was palpable inside and outside the Bellco Theatre. Delegates, volunteers and supporters donned pins and waved signs to demonstrate their endorsements for the Democratic ticket. Repeatedly, Democrats danced to the hit pop song "Happy" by Pharrell, hopeful that the party will walk away joyous and victorious this fall.
Colorado Dems celebrate — and anticipate
The Colorado Statesman
A decade after launching a nearly unbroken string of success at the ballot box, Colorado Democrats have plenty to celebrate but are facing a demanding election year that could determine whether the blue-leaning state reverses course, party and elected officials told more than 1,000 supporters at the annual Jefferson Jackson Dinner fundraiser on Saturday in Denver.
"This is going to be the hardest campaign that most of us have ever seen," Gov. John Hickenlooper told the crowd at the Sheraton Denver Downtown Hotel. "It's going to be a very difficult year for Democrats."
Michael Reagan invokes Dad at Centennial Dinner
The Colorado Statesman
BROOMFIELD – Conservative commentator Michael Reagan told Colorado Republicans that the GOP must embrace the inclusive, welcoming approach taken by his iconic father, former President Ronald Reagan, in order to win elections.
Reagan spoke for an hour to about 400 donors at the state GOP's annual Centennial Dinner on Friday at the Omni Interlocken Hotel in Broomfield on the eve of the Republican State Assembly.
Environmental issues are in the air — and below the ground
The Colorado Statesman
As Earth Day approaches on Tuesday, environmental issues are in the air — and below the ground.
Citizens are pushing a series of ballot initiatives that would allow bans on hydraulic fracturing, while the oil and gas industry continues to grapple with how to educate the public on what they perceive to be the benefits of so-called "fracking."
Hickenlooper glides by Colorado's allegedly Independent Ethics Commission
Contributing Columnist
Before publicly debating its ruling on whether Gov. John Hickenlooper violated ethical standards last year by hosting the Democratic Governors' Association meeting in Aspen, Colorado's Independent Ethics Commission went into executive session Monday morning to confer with their attorney. Apparently in the Passover spirit they must have slit the throat of a lamb, drained its blood and examined the entrails for legal guidance, perhaps augmented with an assist from a snorted elixir of powdered lizard gizzard, eye of newt and skin of Bufo alvarius.

An article by Michael E. Ross entitled The Epidemic of Police Brutality published at The Root yesterday. It comes alongside news from Tampa of police misconduct resulting in homicide. On December 23, Reason's Hit and Run blog published the story of Nick Christie, who was tied to a chair and repeatedly pepper sprayed by Lee County, FL deputies (photo included in link). His death was likely caused by asphyxiation, though there could have been a number of factors at work as Nick Christie had a medical condition. According to a witness, who at the time was a corrections officer, "He had a spit mask on and was naked." The witness testified that the restrained man had pleaded with officers to remove the spit mask because he could not breathe.

A council that closed half its libraries wants to demolish another to make way for new homes, then rebuild it on a cherished public square.
Brent residents are fighting plans to build 100 flats on part of the Willesden Green Library Centre site and erect a "cultural centre" on land in front.
Author Zadie Smith, who grew up in the borough, attacked the scheme as "cultural vandalism" and said the square is one of the few public places where locals can meet for free.
In the New York Review of Books, she wrote about visiting the square when it hosted a French market, saying people were "simply standing around in the sunshine, like some kind of community".
Protesters claim the plan will result in the loss of a community "breathing space" where local events are held. They have applied for the land to be recognised as a town square. A public inquiry will be held next month.
Martin Redston, leading the campaign, said: "The public square is essential as one of the last pieces of open space in Willesden Green. It is sunny, but sheltered by a lovely old plane tree and looks out on to the 1894 heritage of the old library. It is a place where shoppers and workers can rest, pause and reflect. It is a safe place where parents can let their kids play without straying into main roads."
Brent, which closed six of its 12 libraries despite residents' protests, plans to give part of the existing library site to developers in return for them funding the new building, and said it was an "innovative opportunity" to get a new facility without direct investment.

Report: West Ham's Ravel Morrison set for QPR loan; move delayed for promotion purposes
Feb 13, 2014, 5:03 PM EST
Queens Park Rangers boss Harry Redknapp is pulling out all the stops in his promotion push, even delaying a high-profile loan move for Ravel Morrison in case he needs the flashy attacker for the Championship playoffs.
That's the news from Sky Sports, who say West Ham manager Sam Allardyce is tired of Morrison's mercurial act. Apparently, Big Sam thinks Morrison should've played through a groun injury.
RELATED: Morrison scores on backheel volley in England U-21 training
The move would reportedly happen on Feb. 21 in order for the 93-day loan to last through the Championship playoff final, in case that's what it takes for QPR to earn promotion.
QPR manager Harry Redknapp revealed his interest in signing Morrison following his side's loss to Derby on Monday night.
Redknapp told Sky Sports News: "If he does want to come and they want to loan him out, we'd be interested, for sure. He's a talent, (and) can open doors and make the difference."
Morrison has played a total of 45 minutes in Premier League action since playing a full 90 minutes in a 3-1 loss at Manchester United on Dec. 21.
But he started off his time as a Hammer quite well, scoring thrice and adding two assists in a nine-game stretch between late September and the end of November. Yet he's also been in the headlines for a near-fight with Wilfried Zaha in an England U-21 match, as well as a number of other questionable decisions. It's all well-detailed by our own JPW here.

When I was coming out of high school, my decision of where I would play in college was critically important to me. It was, after all, the first time in my life that I got to choose the coach I was going to play for. And when I signed my letter of intent, I was not choosing a school. I was choosing a coach.
When Mike Krzyzewski began recruiting me at the start of in 1981, I was a high school junior, and I had never even heard of him. He was just about to begin his second ...

Review: Glee - Hairography
by Allison Waldman, posted Nov 26th 2009 1:34AM
(S01E11) Distractions abounded in this latest episode of Glee. Most of the characters were causing distraction or being distracted from the situation at hand, and we were back to most of the soapy aspects of the show. Teri and Quinn were both thinking about the baby, and Will and Finn remained as in the dark as ever. More on that and other complications after the jump.

"A lot of us have our own telescopes. One of the things we like to do is go out someplace dark and set up our telescopes and look at the sky. When we have a star party, you don't mind deserting your 'scope and going down the hill to see what someone else is looking at."
Related quotes
"The one that can see years ahead has a telescope, but he can't make anybody believe that he has it."
"We don't require our astronomers to explore the heavens with 19th century telescopes, and we don't require our geologists to study the Earth with a tape measure. If we are serious about realizing the promise of stem cell research, our biomedical researchers need access to the best stem cell lines available."
"If you've ever looked through a telescope on the ground, all this shaking and shimmering going on (is) because you're using high-magnification track."
"The halos exist, but are so faint that an extremely sensitive telescope such as Chandra is needed to detect them."

Obama: Syrian government behind chemical weapons attack
President Barack Obama says the U.S. has concluded that the Syrian government carried out a large-scale chemical weapons attack against civilians last week.
The Associated Press
President Barack Obama says the U.S. has concluded that the Syrian government carried out a large-scale chemical weapons attack against civilians last week.
Obama says the U.S. has examined evidence and doesn't believe the opposition fighting the Syrian government possessed chemical weapons or the means to deliver them.
Obama says he hasn't made a decision about how the U.S. will respond.
The White House says it's planning a possible military response while seeking support from international partners. But the U.S. has not yet presented concrete proof of Syrian government involvement in the attack.
Some lawmakers are calling for Obama to seek congressional approval for a military action.

Scam called at 4am
All Comments (183)
I receive calls about every 5 minutes for about an hour then they stop for awhile and start up again. I was told my son was in jail in Georgia. I ran a background check on him and no criminal activity showed up. We tried to locate him in Walker County jail in Al and Ga. The calls are recordings so you can't talk to anyone. It is wanting you to put money in an account for him.
866-847-1251 calls my mother's house every day, eight times per day. My sister in-law is in a Florida prison and she keeps harassing my mother by calling every day, eight times per day because she wants my brother to set up a pre-paid phone calling account while she's in prison so she can make phone calls. My brother hasn't been over my Mom's house in several days, BUT the jail bird continues to call EIGHT times a day HOPING that someone will feel bad for her and set up an account. We don't know how to get her stop calling. SHE'S IN A FLORIDA PRISON. One would think they could control their inmates since she's doing time for a very serious offense, BUT NO, a Florida inmate, apparently, is permitted to harass whoever they wish to. I have called several numbers listed with the Florida Department of Corrections. Every person I get is either clueless or has no idea where the NPC Destin Correctional Institute in Florida is. The company that sets up the phone system for the inmates is called SECURUS, and I was given their phone number, and, of course, I can not get through because I live in an area of Florida that does not have access to that phone number. Does everyone feel more secure and safe knowing that the State of Florida has NO CONTROL of their prisoners, NOR, do they know which prison my sister in-law is....when the call comes in they say it's from the NPC Destin Correctional Facility...nobody knows where this prison is....not even the Florida Department of Corrections. Isn't that just great? Caller: Securus
not a scam, i receive calls from my boyfriend who is in jail and this is the number that appears on my phone

How to Buy A Suit: The Complete GQ guide
• Jacket: A tailor usually will need to alter the length of the sleeves. Insist that you�d like a quarter inch of shirt cuff to show. The sides of a jacket often need tapering so they contour to your torso. And check out the collar: Many times there is a roll in the back of the suit jacket, up near your neck. A good tailor can correct this.

Atlanta City Council OKs funding for streetcar
Send this to a friend
- Dave Williams
- Staff Writer- Atlanta Business Chronicle
The Atlanta City Council signed off Monday on the city's portion of funding for the Atlanta Streetcar project, but not without some trepidation over the open-ended nature of the commitment.
Council members voted 9-2 to ante up $1 million a year in startup, operational and maintenance costs for the streetcar line through downtown Atlanta and 9-1 in favor of charging riders $1 per one-way trip.
A $47 million federal grant is financing almost half of the $100 million streetcar, which will run 2.7 miles between the Martin Luther King Jr. Historic Site and Centennial Olympic Park. But the project also will rely on funding from the city, particularly during the startup phase, and passenger fares.
The city's share of the money will come from hotel-motel tax revenues and rental car fees.
On Monday, several council members said they were worried the city's commitment, which will be for up to 20 years, will become a drain on Atlanta's budget in the out years.
"I'm fearful that once this gets up and running in a few years, it's going to be in a deficit position, and we're going to be scrambling for additional funds," Councilwoman Felicia Moore said.
But Councilman Michael Julian Bond said the streetcar project is critical to Atlanta's ability to compete with its peer cities.
"We're not competing with Marietta, Decatur and Macon," he said. "We're competing with Dallas, Portland, [Ore.] and Charlotte, all cities that have streetcars or light rail. ... If we're going to continue to be a leader, we've got to do the things that will help us remain on the stage."
Councilman Ivory Lee Young Jr. said quibbling over funding the streetcar at this late date could jeopardize federal support for future Atlanta projects.
"We're at the finish line, ready to kick this off and we're going to say 'no'? he said. "That's the wrong message to send."
The streetcar had been expected to go into service this summer but has been delayed until the fall due to track and station construction issues along the route.

"I love the butterfly return address labels. It's so hard to find anything butterfly these days and these were perfect!! The label is larger than I thought it would be but will work fine."
"These labels just screamed "spring" to me. They are perfect for Easter but can be used for Valentine's Day as well. The colors are soft and lovely!"
"I used an awesome daily deal that was emailed to me to try out the address labels and much to my suprise Tiny Prints had hundreds of adorable designs to choose from!! I picked out two and the amazing deal I got on them cannot be beat. I came back a week after I received my address labels and ordered some personalized note cards that I also got a wonderful "daily deal" on! Plus I love the emailed updates on my orders :) and very fast shipping! thanks TP!"
"Beautiful touch to dress up the envelope to match the invitation & thank you. I ordered extra to keep after the invitations went out because they are soo pretty."
"Though the return address labels obviously do not contain elephants as per the descriptive copy, they do match the elephant shower invitation and add a really nice look to the envelope. I used a brown pen for the addresses. A perfect intro to the delightfully whimsical invitation inside."

There was a lot of television to choose from last night: a beauty pageant, a big battle on Game of Thrones, and even, I'm told, some basketball game. But if you're like me, you enjoyed a liter of white wine and the Tony Awards, the annual celebration of a relatively minor industry within New York that is broadcast on national television to millions who will likely never see any of the shows featured or even know who most of the people in attendance actually are. But, on the plus side, Broadway for once looked a lot less whitewashed than usual! … Read More
Forget 'Peter Pan' and 'Grease': Here Are 10 Musicals We'd Like to See on Live TV
Last fall, NBC had a surprising hit with The Sound of Music: Live! Did we think that a live broadcast of a musical that by all accounts is not as fun on stage as it is on celluloid would be a grand thing to sit through on a Thursday night? Especially when it featured a country music superstar who was not particularly known for her acting talents? Well, people loved it and people hated it, but it sure was fun to watch and tweet about, and its success convinced its producers to make it an annual event. Peter Pan, the 1954 musical, will be broadcast in December. And just yesterday, Fox announced they'll be following suit with a live broadcast of Grease sometime next year. … Read More

Life Is a 'Cabaret': A Visual History of Sally Bowles
Cabaret is widely recognized as one of the most important and influential American musicals of the 20th century. The musical, written by John Kander, Fred Ebb, and Joe Masteroff, introduced to a wide audience the characters of a fiendish Master of Ceremonies and the lovely yet tortured nightclub singer Sally Bowles, both performers at the Kit Kat Klub in Weimer-era Berlin, just before the rise of the Nazi party. Based on the stories of Christopher Isherwood, Cabaret is a much-loved and often-staged musical, which is currently seeing its fourth Broadway revival at Studio 54. To celebrate its newest iteration, take a look at the history of the complicated character Sally Bowles, who has turned up in literature, on stage, and in film since her first appearance in 1937. … Read More
Shakespeare's Tropes: 7 Phrases and Concepts That Changed Western Culture
Aside from the Bible, Greek myths, classical philosophers, a few Germans, and maybe Charles Dickens, no single author's words have changed the way the Western world talks and writes like the work of William Shakespeare. Although it may often escape the casual reader's notice, his fingerprints are all over our books, plays, television shows, movies, and just about everything else that involves language. On what is allegedly Shakespeare's 450th birthday, we've compiled a few of our favorite phrases and tropes the Bard injected into the English lexicon. … Read More
Despite the Woody Allen Association, 'Bullets Over Broadway' Is an Excellent Musical
It probably wouldn't be too outlandish to say that a new Woody Allen cultural property is not exactly what anyone is in the mood for these days, given the last few months' worth of op-ed tell-alls, backlashes, and comment-thread arguments. Despite the fact that the production of Bullets Over Broadway: The Musical had been in the works years before Dylan Farrow became part of the cultural conversation again, it still may seem like an April 2014 Broadway opening might not be the best timing for a musical based on one of Woody Allen's films, especially as Allen himself wrote the book. The Broadway audience, however, is limited compared to the larger audience that would respond to the release of a new Woody Allen film, and it'll be interesting to see in the next few weeks if the critical and public response to Bullets Over Broadway will indicate a turn in the acceptance of Allen's work. Is it possible, at this point, to compartmentalize Woody Allen, to appreciate his art while not supporting the artist? … Read More
The Surprising Musical Theatre Pasts of Your Favorite Movie and TV Actors
I saw Matilda: The Musical on Broadway recently, and it was overwhelming. The set and songs were captivating, of course, but what truly had me floored was the titanic force of the child actors — many of whom were navigating their very first decade of life. They sang with more passion than some trained adults, and danced with that particular type of high-octane energy only available to schoolchildren on a sugar rush. It was impossible not to feel like the audience was being treated to a sneak preview of tomorrow's superstars. … Read More
