Unknown Richie Havens has been performing in Telluride since the 1970s. Everything old will be new again when the folk icon returns to town for a concert at the historic Sheridan Opera House on Saturday, March 13. Show time is 8 p.m. Box Office and Vaudeville Bar open 30 minutes prior.


August 15, 2009 marked the 40th anniversary of the momentous Woodstock Music & Art Fair, a festival billed as "An Aquarian Exposition: 3 Days of Peace & Music," held at Max Yasgur's 600-acre dairy farm near the hamlet of White Lake in the town of Bethel, New York. Bethel, in Sullivan County, is 43 miles southwest of the town of Woodstock, New York,  in adjoining Ulster County and it was where Richie Havens became an enduring star.

Here is one of a number of original poems Rosemerry plans to read Thursday night at open mic and arts event at the Ah Haa School for the Arts, part of the San Miguel Resource Center's Phenomenal Woman's Week celebration.

Stockholm_courtesy1_2-25_t620 Fair warning: We have it on good authority that around 7 p.m. on Friday, March 12, the Telluride region will be held hostage by an unruly band of men and worse, fall in love with their captors, thereby conforming to the psychological definition of the Stockholm Syndrome.

The band, the Stockholm Syndrome, takes the town by storm, performing in concert  at the Telluride Conference Center in the Mountain Village. Doors at 6:30 p.m. Show time at 7 p.m.

Thursday, March 11, 8 p.m., Seals performs in town at Telluride's historic Sheridan Opera House. Saturday, March 13, Second to None heads up the hill to the Telluride Conference Center in the Mountain Village, where the group is the entertainment for the Telluride Medical Center's annual F.E.A.S.T. (Fund for Expanding And Supporting Telluride’s Medical Center), a fundraiser, this year to help support the Telluride Medical Center Emergency room renovation.
