Walker has been a comedy staple of American TV and film since the early 1970s and is probably best known for his role on the long-running hit TV series, "Good Times." An established stand-up comic before being cast on "Good Times," Walker has never completely left the comedy circuit, and has even been named "Comedian of the Decade" by Time Magazine.

Walker currently tours the country 25-30 weeks a year doing his stand-up comedy, and also performs on late night T.V. and game shows. In his spare time he writes scripts for T.V. and movies.

Keeping the party going are #1 platinum recording artists Jagged Edge, who will be bringing their unmistakable R&B sound to the Spotlight Showroom. The band, consisting of twins Brian and Brandon Casey, Kyle Norman and Richard Wingo -- better known to their fans as Case Dinero, Brasco, Quick and Wingo -- have been electrifying the music scene since their 1997 debut single "The Way That You Talk."

The band's real breakthrough came in 2000 with their second album, the double-platinum "J.E. Heartbreak." The album spawned several hit singles including #1 "Let's Get Married," #3 "He Can't Love You" and the #1 hit "Promise." Their latest album continues to climb the charts, highlighted by the single "Put A Little Umph In It," featuring Ashanti.

Tickets for Jagged Edge and Jimmy J.J. Walker are $35, $45 and $50 and are on sale now at Spotlight29.com and at the Spotlight 29 Casino Gift Shop or by calling (800) 585-3737. Show time is 8:00 p.m.
