Summary

Michael Beans was scheduled to perform at the Shamrock and Beachcomber in July 2012, but the initial shows were postponed because of a family illness. Later weekly notices placed him at the Shamrock in July and August, and participants reported successful performances.

Evidence limits

The forum provides organizer notices and participant testimony. It supports the postponement and a rescheduled performance, but does not establish attendance, receipts, or any charitable proceeds.

The first thread announced Friday and Saturday performances at the Shamrock and Beachcomber. A linked follow-up thread reported that those shows were postponed because of a serious family illness and would be rescheduled for the following week. This establishes the schedule change, not the original performances.

The postponement notice records the change because of a family illness. The later weekly schedule and participant outcome are preserved in the related July 17–23 thread below; this source itself does not establish attendance, receipts, or fundraising totals.

The organizer scheduled Michael Beans for Wednesday and Sunday patio performances, and a participant later wrote that Beans was great on Sunday. This supports a rescheduled performance occurring, but not attendance, receipts, or charitable proceeds.
