Legendary Irish traditional band Altan celebrate 25 years together in 2010, having established themselves as one of the most important live acts to play traditional Irish music in Ireland and on the world stage. To mark this, the band has recorded a very special album with the RTE Concert Orchestra and is touring internationally, making a stop in Columbus with the world-famous, original band line up.
As we come to the second week of March, some of our California Central Coast theatre and live entertainment venues have just closed or will soon be closing their current performance runs, while a couple are preparing to open new shows - rarely a dull moment when it comes to theatre opportunities in these parts!

As we come to the beginning of March, a number of our California Central Coast theatre and live entertainment venues have recently closed or will soon be closing their current performance runs.

More than the passage of time has turned country singer/musician Ricky Skaggs into one of the elder statesmen of bluegrass.

And, while his long locks may have almost completely faded to gray, there's still a fire for producing the authentic sounds of country music that burns within him.
