    Old Town Center for the ArtsCottonwood AZ (February 28, 2013) – The Old Town Center for the Arts is pleased to announce three stellar events in March. Karl Jones & Dublin Soul will present a special St. Patrick’s Eve Concert on Saturday, March 16th at 7:00 pm. ‘Guitarist of the Decade’ Adrian Legg from England appears on Tuesday, March 19th at 7:00 pm. Grammy winning CMA Vocalist of the Year, Laurie Lewis is joined by Tom Rozum for a country-bluegrass ‘encore’ concert on Friday, March 22nd at 7:30 pm.

    “This is the best single week of entertainment we’ve ever had at OTCA,” Co-director William Eaton remarked, “remarkable talent, and each an international performer.” Read on and mark your calendars for one or more of these events.

    20130228_otcaAll the way from Ireland, and now residing in Sedona, Karl Jones brings together a superb ‘Irish band’ – Dublin Soul – for an evening of Celtic and Irish tunes. What better way to get your Green on for St Patrick’s Day than coming to OTCA for this St. Patrick’s Eve Concert, on March 16th at 7:00 pm. ‘Dublin Soul’ will be the opening concert for the 5th Annual Spring Planting Festival, a week that provides educational, cultural and practical activities that increase local food production, environmental stewardship, and a healthy, sustainable lifestyle. A worthy ‘second’ reason to celebrate ‘green.’

    Raised in Dublin, Ireland Karl Jones is a walking encyclopedia of all things Irish. “In some ways I am as traditional as you can possibly get,” he explained. “My grandfather worked at the Guinness Brewery for 40 years and his brother lived in Monkstown, next door to Christy Moore, who is really a household name in Ireland and one of our most famous folk singers, a real inspiration. He was from County Kildare.” Dublin Soul includes Karl Jones on guitar and vocals, Richard Neville (bass), Jane Hilton (Irish Fiddle), Corey (mandolin), and ‘Janice’ (drums). Jones has released two albums, “1916: The Best of Karl Jones” and “Dublin Soul.” Come celebrate this special St. Patrick’s eve concert.

    British guitar maestro Adrian Legg appears at OTCA on Tuesday, March 19, at 7:00 pm as part of his 9 states and 16 cities tour across the US. Legg is an award winning ‘who’s who’ icon in the world of fingerstyle guitar. A distinctively powerful, dazzling style of play, guitarist Legg is billed as “ridiculously talented” by Music Week. He is renowned on both sides of the Atlantic for his signature blend of music styles and mastery of both acoustic and electric guitar technique. Legg is regarded as a “genius of acoustic guitar wizadry” (Los Angeles Reader) and a guitarist of great power, invention and versatility” (St. Petersburg Times). Don’t miss this guitar master, right here in Old Town.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
