Arden Concert Gild presents A Musical Celebration of John Prine: Honoring his 76th Birthday on October 10 (show is October 7)!
“I guess I just process death differently than some folks. Realizing you’re not going to see that person again is always the most difficult part about it. But that feeling settles, and then you are glad you had that person in your life, and then the happiness and the sadness get all swirled up inside you.” – John Prine
Featuring: The Not Ready for Prinetime Players – Butch Zito, Dustin Frohlich, Jordan Leitner, Devin Zito, Stevie Hobson, Teri Zito and Jack Taylor
Sin City Band – Scotty, Stevie, Dave Barry and Jimmy FIcca
Jason and Emma Webb, Steve Pepper, Canadian Tuxedo, Uncle Barto Frohlich, Mike Miller, John Gallagher, Rachael Zito
Bonnie Raitt, who covered one of his best known songs, Angel from Montgomery, compared him to Mark Twain for his combination of tenderness, wisdom and “homespun sense of humour”, while Bob Dylan, who admired his “beautiful songs”, commented that “Prine’s stuff is pure Proustian existentialism. Midwestern mindtrips to the nth degree.”
