Legendary concert promoter, Leonard Rowe, had an inspiring beginning to his career. He amusingly tells the story of how he became fascinated with concert promotion after standing in a line, two blocks long, to see the Spinners. Tickets for the concert were $7 a piece. Thinking to himself, but talking aloud, he wondered who was getting all of the money. Someone from the crowd yelled out, “the concert promoter.” On that day, Rowe decided he would become a concert promoter and he never looked back.
Near and dear to his heart is the history he made with Michael Jackson and The Jacksons. He was the only African American concert promoter to ever tour The Jacksons, having produced and promoted the highly successful tour that launched Michael’s solo career, “Off The Wall” in 1979-80. His relationship with the family has continued for more than thirty years.
