Jorgenson Quintet appears on Jan. 24
The Churchill Arts Council will present a performance by the John Jorgenson Quintet at 8 p.m. on Jan. 24 in the Barkley Theatre at the Oats Park Art Center, 151 E. Park St.
Tickets are $17 for CAC members, $20 for nonmembers, $10 for children, and are available at Jeff’s Copy Express, Postage Plus, ITT @ NAS Fallon or by calling CAC at 423-1440.
Doors open at 7 p.m. and there will be a no-host bar. There will also be a free and open-to-the-public free preview and conversation with the artists at 3 p.m. at the Art Center; please call 423-1440 if you are interested in attending.
John Jorgenson is a founding member of the Hellecasters and one of the greatest guitar players working today. He is one of the pioneers of swing manouche — American Gypsy Jazz interpretations of Django Reinhardt — and has performed with artists as diverse as Elton John, Luciano Pavarotti and Bonnie Raitt.
The quintet brings originality and musical intelligence to a range of standards and inventive original compositions. Their passion, precision, grace and technique bring this music alive and they’ve dazzled audiences from the World Café and Wolf Trap to the Montreal Jazz and Seattle Symphony Festivals.
Sheep Dip returns
Northern Nevada’s annual roast, Sheep Dip returns today and Saturday to the Celebrity Showroom at John Ascuaga’s Nugget.
Now in its 45th installment, this hilarious production once again targets high-profile area leaders, events and occurrences. Local celebrities, community members and willing politicos work for months to develop and produce skits, songs and acts designed to poke good-natured fun at things that happened during the past year.
The name Sheep Dip is drawn from Nevada's early heritage of sheep herding in the Sierra Nevada. The show twists that meaning, “dipping” newsmakers in the satirical vat of Sheep Dip to cleanse them of their past deeds and allowing them, according to show organizers, the “freedom” to go right back and be foolish again!
Tickets for Sheep Dip are just $35 and are available by calling (800) 648-1177 or (775) 356-3300 or by visiting janugget.com.
