    Many Irish groups in the United States are really digging deep to come up with new material to enhance their repertoire.  John is doing the same.

    “I like to keep the show moving along,” he says. “People ask me where I get them from? And the answer is simple: some from the pubs in Ireland when I was over there.”

    John has performed all over the United States as well as Great Britain, Ireland and the European continent before settling in Sedona. He likes to give a little history behind a song if there is one.

    This special concert will feature a variety of styles from Folk to Classical along with stories, humor, instrumentals and whatever comes up.  It will be a fun evening.

    You will hear stories of John’s life in Ireland in the 1960s. Although it was only a couple of hundred miles from his home in England it was a whole new world with different customs and different sayings.

    “Our histories were intertwined but we had many different ways of looking at it. Very much like one of us going down deep into Mexico for the first time and talking about our joint histories,” added John.

    “John Freeman’s St. Patrick’s Show” will be performed at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre on Sunday, March 15 at 7:00 p.m. Tickets for the show are $15 general admission and $13 for film festival members. All tickets include a meet-and-greet with John in the lobby after the show.

    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.
