Locals have known Jake for years, but for others, it’s the excitement of getting to see a two season Star Search winner and Oprah favorite moment that brings them to his shows.  Either way, it’s a great experience. This guy’s charisma is intoxicating.  Check out his MySpace page for upcoming performance dates.

Ali Sonoma is the beauty who left the last season of ABC’s The Mole for $30,000 cash.  Good call.  The 24-year-old is a native of St. Louis.  She went to high school in St. Charles. On her official website she doesn’t even list her mole experience.  This girl has got so much going on, she doesn’t need to. One such project is the film Say Goodnight, which also filmed in St. Louis. You can see it now on video.
