AND HIS LARGE BAND

Lyle Lovett and his Large Band are able to present a musical breadth that very few artists can deliver. The Large Band is a formidable musical collective. It’s a swinging Texas big band one minute; and R&B unit the next; and uptown jazz orchestra the one after that; and then a righteous, gospel outfit. Subtract a few players for a minute and the Large Band becomes a small one, perfectly suited for subtly enhancing the most intimate and understated songs from Lovett’s deep catalog.
In concert and on record, Lyle Lovett’s stories and songs are a powerful reminder that he possesses one of the most distinctive voices in music.

The strangest trio ever to track a killer.
The murder of her father by tramp Tom Chaney (Jeff Corey) sends a teenage tomboy, Mattie Ross (Kim Darby), on a mission of "justice", which involves avenging her father's death. She recruits a tough old marshal, "Rooster" Cogburn (John Wayne), because he has "grit", and a reputation of getting the job done. The two are joined by a Texas Ranger, La Boeuf (Glen Campbell), who is looking for the same man for a separate murder in Texas. Their odyssey takes them from Fort Smith, Arkansas, deep into the Indian Territory (present day Oklahoma) to find their man.

What could happen......
A small-town sheriff in the American West enlists the help of a gimp, a drunk, and a young gunfighter.... John T. Chance is both the sheriff of a town near the Mexican border and a defense of the traditional Western hero. When his friend Pat Wheeler is killed Chance does not seek help from amateurs. In his mind, they will only present more targets. In the end, he would rather rely on "professionals," even if they are outnumbered and consist of quirky types such as his alchoholic deputy Dude, gimpy old man Stumpy and young gun Colorado.

Peter Venkman, Ray Stantz, and Egon Spengler are three scientists at Columbia University in New York City. When their grant expires, the guys are fired and they go into business as a ghost extermination company called "Ghostbusters". Their first customer is orchestra cello player Dana Barrett, who was scared out of her apartment on the 22nd floor of a high rise apartment building on Central Park West. It seems that Dana's neighbor, Louis Tully, is also being affected by the strange happenings in the apartment building.
Armed with proton guns, the Ghostbusters become wildly popular, and they are joined by Winston Zeddmore, who is looking for a job with good pay. Overzealous Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) agent Walter Peck thinks the Ghostbusters are frauds, and he has the Ghostbusters put in jail. Peck is forced to believe the Ghostbusters when New York City is put under siege by an ancient Sumerian God named Gozer the Gozerian, who is channeled through the apartment building that Dana and Louis live in, and the mayor has no choice but to let the Ghostbusters out of jail to face Gozer.

They figured he was a lazy time wasting slacker. They were right.
When "The Dude" Lebowski is mistaken for a millionaire Lebowski, two thugs urinate on his rug to coerce him into paying a debt he knows nothing about. While attempting to gain recompense for the ruined rug from his wealthy counterpart, he accepts a one-time job with high pay-off. He enlists the help of his bowling buddy, Walter, a gun-toting Jewish-convert with anger issues. Deception leads to more trouble, and it soon seems that everyone from porn empire tycoons to nihilists want something from The Dude.

The children are unhappy and resentful of the governesses that their father keeps hiring, and have managed to
run each of them off one by one. When Maria arrives, she is initially met with the same hostility,
but her kindness, understanding, and sense of fun soon draws them to her and brings some much-needed
joy into all their lives--including the Captain's.
Eventually he and Maria find themselves falling in love, even though Georg is already engaged to a Baroness
and Maria is still a postulant. The romance makes them both start questioning the decisions they have made.
Their personal conflicts soon become overshadowed, however, by world events. Austria is about to come under
the control of Germany, and the Captain may soon find himself drafted into the German navy and forced to
fight against his own country.

Two-time Grammy nominee Tommy Emmanuel is one of Australia’s most respected musicians.
The legendary guitarist has a professional career that spans almost five decades and continues to intersect
with some of the finest musicians through the world.
A household name in his native Australia, Tommy has garnered hundreds of thousands of loyal fans worldwide.
Tommy’s unique style – he calls it simply “finger style” – is akin to playing guitar the way a pianist plays piano,
using all ten fingers. Rather than using a whole band for melody, rhythm, bass, and drum parts,
Tommy plays all that – and more – on one guitar. Guitar legend Chet Atkins was one of the first
to inspire Emmanuel to try this “fingerpicker” style as a child.
Decades later, Atkins himself became one of Emmanuel’s biggest fans.
Emmanuel’s catalogue includes 20 musical recording running the gamut of solos, duets, ensembles, cover tunes,
originals, both electric and acoustic guitar. He has made 3 live performance DVDs, 3 additional instructional DVDs,
and regularly teaches master classes on the road. At 54, performing live is more important to him than ever
and he tours constantly, playing over 300 concerts a year for the last five years.
Guitar players of all levels come to his shows to watch the magic hands of the ‘guitar Wizard of Oz,’
but his appeal goes far beyond musicians.
His live shows are known for their humor, passion, and infectious joy.
The power of his charismatic showmanship will be an enduring part of Emmanuel’s legacy.
Tommy Emmanuel’s message is pure love for the music and his delight in sharing it with the world, one audience at a time.
Frank Vignola Trio is scheduled to open the show.
Frank is one of the most accomplished, multi-dimensional players walking the planet today.
Monster player, composer and improviser, Frank plays proficiently in every genre, from jazz to bluegrass,
and works with everyone and their brother.
Frank’s pedigree is a mile long, but a quick Google will illustrate why he is considered on of the best on the planet.
