    Newsletter Colorado, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas, Kansas, Mexico May 2016 Oglebay Scholarship, a Roy Saunders Memorial By now, most of you have heard that longtime IAVM Region 6 member, Roy Saunders, CFE, passed away on April 14, 2016. A family friend said that Roy’s motto was “Life is about making the most out of what you are given. Live a little, have some fun…live a little, love a lot!” His daughter, Dawn, wrote this: "God has wiped away every tear and regret, and Roy is celebrating in Heaven today. Dad was a true original...a character in the best sense. If you knew him, you loved him. He was a smart and accomplished man...he was funny, strong, and authentic. “ Saunders was a long-time member of the International Association of Venue Managers, joining in 1957. Roy served in numerous capacities and held almost every office within the association. His influence as a leader, mentor and friend to the membership spanned seven decades. Saunders is the only person in IAVM history to be the recipient of the IAAM Mr. Auditorium Manager award, the Charles A McElravy award (the industry’s highest honor), and serve as IAAM President. Roy saw a need for top- level training for entertainment venue executives and helped conceive and found the Venue Management School (formerly Public Assembly Facility Management School) at Oglebay Park in Wheeling, WV, in 1987. At the IAVM Region 6 meeting in Denver, Bob Mayer announced that Kerry Painter and SMG-Tulsa had made a $250 donation to the region’s scholarship fund in Roy’s name, and then he matched it on the spot! On hearing the news back home in Tulsa, Roy’s family was so very pleased with the gesture, that Joyce Saunders donated $1000 in his name.

  • At the Top of 2016, Tritonal's Chad Cisneros And
    At the top of 2016, Tritonal’s Chad Cisneros and Dave Reed release a long-coveted but previously unavailable single, “Blackout”. Featuring Steph Jones’ delicate vocals and a pop twist on the duo’s melodic sound, “Blackout” quickly becomes Tritonal’s fastest-selling and -streaming single to date. Its impressive success is the latest in a series of milestones for the Austin, Texas songwriters and producers. Over the previous year alone, Tritonal surpassed 53 million streams in aggregate on Spotify, over 10 million of that coming from their Chainsmokers collaboration, "Until You Were Gone". Tritonal also remixed Adam Lambert’s hit “Ghost Town”; reached millions of listeners on iTunes, Soundcloud and Sirius via their podcast, Tritonia; and sold out the majority of their The Untouchable tour with Cash Cash, including iconic venues like New York’s Terminal 5, San Francisco’s Warfield, and L.A.’s Club Nokia. As of early 2016, the tour’s title song, “Untouchable”, had been streamed over 19 million times. The duo has been building up to this winning streak since they first formed in 2008 and broke through with a head-turning succession of progressive singles on premium imprints like Anjunabeats. Moving to Will Holland’s Enhanced Music, which they came to co-own, Tritonal raised their profile with a series of celebrated releases, including dozens of remixes, most notably a pivotal 2009 Ferry Corsten rework; their hit-laden 2011 debut album, Piercing the Quiet; and their acclaimed 2013-2014 Metamorphic EP trilogy featuring the euphoric favorites “Follow Me Home” and “Now or Never”, which broke into the Top Five on Billboard’s Airplay Dance chart, a placement recaptured by their follow-ups, “Anchor”,“Colors”, “Untouchable”.
