After Hinckley announced the show, at least three people asked him on Twitter if he needed an opening act.
John Hinckley Jr. just reached a noteworthy achievement in his new career as a country singer: a sold-out show in New York. The man who attempted to assassinate President Ronald Reagan in 1981 is scheduled to perform his first ever solo show July 8 at the Market Hotel in Brooklyn. Apparently, enough people are willing to pay $20 to watch Hinckley sing songs like “You Let Whiskey Do Your Talking,” “Can’t We Get Along” and “You And I Are Free” to sell out the 450-seat venue, according to TMZ.
