Steve-O appeared at The Strand Ballroom & Theatre on Friday December 10, 2021. The Strand is in Providence, Rhode Island, located on Washington Street. This show was part of the Bucket List Tour, and was performed to a sold out crowd. Scott Randolph (producer and director) kicked the night off, seemingly against his will. He was out there very briefly, but because of his heart rate, I’m sure it felt like a lifetime to him.
