Carl Verheyen

There’s a lot to see this weekend:

• He’s back – I loved him & his playing the last couple of years – don’t miss Carl this weekend – here’s more from Jan at the Community Theatre:

He was proclaimed one of the top ten guitarists in the world by Guitar Magazine and this weekend, islanders get a chance to experience that talent plus his great band for themselves at the San Juan Community Theatre!

The Carl Verheyen Band rocks the Whittier stage on Saturday at 7:30 pm and then sticks around on Sunday to lead a Rhythm Section Workshop* for local guitarists, drummers and bassists from 10 am to 1 pm.

For the past 25 years, Carl has built a multi-faceted career around the guitar, with 10 CDs released worldwide.  He has toured with his own and other bands, including as lead guitarist for the British group, Supertramp; and as one of Los Angeles’ elite “first call” session players.  He has played with a virtual who’s who of the music industry: everyone from Christina Aguilera, Dolly Parton and B.B. King to the Bee Gees, Cher and Little Richard.  His vast collection of movie soundtrack credits include The Crow and The Usual Suspects and he can be heard as a featured soloist in the Pixar film Ratatouille.

• Helen at Island Stage Left reports the run is going well for Rabbit Hole:

Our audiences are not as full as we’d like at the moment – except on Saturdays – and we’d hate you to miss this fabulous, moving and funny production. The people who have seen RABBIT HOLE are raving about it,  so don’t wait until the last moment and end up being turned away or not getting a good seat, which so often happens in the final week – come now!! It’s warm and cozy, too. (Material not suitable for young children.)

Once again the dates and times:
Roche Harbor Pavilion until Nov 29th
Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30
Sundays at 4:00 (No performance on Thanksgiving)
