  • “The Neoclassical Gaze: Myth and Reality of Ancient Sculpture”
    “The Neoclassical Gaze: Myth and Reality of Ancient Sculpture”
    From 10:00 am - 6:00 pm at Martin Museum of Art, 60 Baylor Ave, Waco, TX 76706, USA

    The Martin Museum of Art presents its newest exhibit "The Neoclassical Gaze: Myth and Reality of Ancient Sculpture" from January 22 through March 8, 2019. The exhibit features early 19th-century engravings of Greek and Roman sculptures. Take a torch-lit guided tour of the exhibit at a special Valentine’s event February 14, which will include live music and hors d’oeuvres. The event is free, but space is limited. To reserve your spot, visit baylor.edu/martinmuseum.

    This exhibition features Wilhelm Gottlieb Becker’s Augusteum (1804-1811), a three-volume publication of engravings illustrating ancient Greek and Roman sculpture. These engravings will be displayed alongside plaster cast reproductions of ancient sculpture on loan from the Blanton Museum of Art, The University of Texas at Austin. These compelling works will be examined from the perspectives of both the ancient world, as well as that of the Neoclassical Revival at the turn of the nineteenth century, as presented by guest curators, Baylor Art Historians, Dr. Sean DeLouche and Dr. Nathan Elkins.

    The Augusteum is a grand publication dedicated to the ancient sculpture collected by Augustus II, the Prince Elector of Saxony, in Dresden, Germany, during the mid-eighteenth century. Published in German and French editions from 1804 to 1811, and again in 1837, the books, Augusteum, Dresdens antike Denkmäler enthaltend and Augusteum, ou Description des Monumens Antiques qui se trouvent à Dresde, include elaborate textual descriptions of the sculptures accompanied by 154 intricate engravings. Most of the illustrations depict sculptural figures from both front and back views.

    Beginning in 1723, Augustus II established the “Collection of Antique and Modern Sculptures” as part of his larger campaign to transform Dresden into a center for art and architecture in Germany. Many of the works he acquired came from the Chigi and Albani collections of Italy, whose antiquities originated predominantly from excavations in Rome and surrounding archeological sites. The Dresden Collection, currently housed in the historic Albertinum Museum in Dresden, is one of the oldest collections of ancient sculpture found outside Italy.

    All hands on deck as McLennan Opera and Theatre combine forces in Gilbert & Sullivan's witty, enduring, comedic masterpiece, The Pirates of Penzance. The operetta begins on the rocky shores of Cornwall where Frederic (a pirate-in-training) is celebrating his 21st birthday. Problems arise when Frederic, now of age, suddenly declares his disgust for piracy and, with his devoted nursemaid Ruth, leaves his scallywag companions to their nefarious affairs. Once on shore, Frederic encounters a group of young maidens, daughters of Major-General Stanley, and falls madly in love with all of them until he is thunderstruck by the arrival of the effervescent and adoring Mabel. However, unbeknownst to the lovebirds, Frederic's shunned shipmates, led by the infamous Pirate King, lurk in the shadows, and when they leap into action, topsy-turvy hilarity sets sail!

    Performances are Friday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m. in the Ball Performing Arts Center at McLennan Community College. For ticket information, call 299-8604 or email reservations@mclennan.edu.

    Waco Walks: LaSalle Avenue
    From 9:30 am - 12:00 pm at CEN-TEX HISPANIC CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, 915 La Salle Ave, Waco, TX 76706, USA

    Before I-35, LaSalle Avenue (Highway 77) was the main route through Waco for travelers headed to Dallas. Elvis Presley dined at the Elite Café, and movie goers enjoyed the latest film from the comfort of their own cars at the Circle Drive-in. Times have changed. The Elite is now the “Magnolia Table,” the Circle Drive-in is now the flea market, and the current business owners on LaSalle are starting to think about what’s next for this old stretch of highway. On March 2, Alfred Solano of the Centex Hispanic Chamber of Commerce will help us explore LaSalle. We’ll tell some stories and talk about new possibilities. Did you have memories of life on LaSalle? Join us and add your stories to the mix!

    Date: March 2

    Time: 9:30 AM

    Meet up location: Centex Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, 915 La Salle Ave.

    Walk Length: 3.25 miles

    Walk organizer: Alfred Solano

    Got questions?: Email alfred@wacohispanicchamber.com

    Accessibility: Most of the walk will be on sidewalks and city streets, but plan to negotiate uneven pavement, a few curbs, and several grassy patches.

    Hydration: Bring your own water. It’s March, but it is still a good idea to hydrate!

    Dogs: Doggies are welcome, but they MUST be on a leash and you MUST come prepared to scoop the poop!

    Weather/Cancellation Plan: We plan to walk rain or shine, so if it looks like rain, bring an umbrella. In the event that it is a terrible storm or something happens and we have to cancel, we will send out a note to the email list. To subscribe to the email list, click here: http://eepurl.com/cG7kdj.

    All hands on deck as McLennan Opera and Theatre combine forces in Gilbert & Sullivan's witty, enduring, comedic masterpiece, The Pirates of Penzance. The operetta begins on the rocky shores of Cornwall where Frederic (a pirate-in-training) is celebrating his 21st birthday. Problems arise when Frederic, now of age, suddenly declares his disgust for piracy and, with his devoted nursemaid Ruth, leaves his scallywag companions to their nefarious affairs. Once on shore, Frederic encounters a group of young maidens, daughters of Major-General Stanley, and falls madly in love with all of them until he is thunderstruck by the arrival of the effervescent and adoring Mabel. However, unbeknownst to the lovebirds, Frederic's shunned shipmates, led by the infamous Pirate King, lurk in the shadows, and when they leap into action, topsy-turvy hilarity sets sail!

    Performances are Friday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m. in the Ball Performing Arts Center at McLennan Community College. For ticket information, call 299-8604 or email reservations@mclennan.edu.

    From 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm at Martin Museum of Art, 60 Baylor Ave, Waco, TX 76706, USA

    The Martin Museum of Art presents its newest exhibit "The Neoclassical Gaze: Myth and Reality of Ancient Sculpture" from January 22 through March 8, 2019. The exhibit features early 19th-century engravings of Greek and Roman sculptures. Take a torch-lit guided tour of the exhibit at a special Valentine’s event February 14, which will include live music and hors d’oeuvres. The event is free, but space is limited. To reserve your spot, visit baylor.edu/martinmuseum.

    This exhibition features Wilhelm Gottlieb Becker’s Augusteum (1804-1811), a three-volume publication of engravings illustrating ancient Greek and Roman sculpture. These engravings will be displayed alongside plaster cast reproductions of ancient sculpture on loan from the Blanton Museum of Art, The University of Texas at Austin. These compelling works will be examined from the perspectives of both the ancient world, as well as that of the Neoclassical Revival at the turn of the nineteenth century, as presented by guest curators, Baylor Art Historians, Dr. Sean DeLouche and Dr. Nathan Elkins.

    The Augusteum is a grand publication dedicated to the ancient sculpture collected by Augustus II, the Prince Elector of Saxony, in Dresden, Germany, during the mid-eighteenth century. Published in German and French editions from 1804 to 1811, and again in 1837, the books, Augusteum, Dresdens antike Denkmäler enthaltend and Augusteum, ou Description des Monumens Antiques qui se trouvent à Dresde, include elaborate textual descriptions of the sculptures accompanied by 154 intricate engravings. Most of the illustrations depict sculptural figures from both front and back views.

    Beginning in 1723, Augustus II established the “Collection of Antique and Modern Sculptures” as part of his larger campaign to transform Dresden into a center for art and architecture in Germany. Many of the works he acquired came from the Chigi and Albani collections of Italy, whose antiquities originated predominantly from excavations in Rome and surrounding archeological sites. The Dresden Collection, currently housed in the historic Albertinum Museum in Dresden, is one of the oldest collections of ancient sculpture found outside Italy.

These engravings will be displayed alongside plaster cast reproductions of ancient sculpture on loan from the Blanton Museum of Art, The University of Texas at Austin. These compelling works will be examined from the perspectives of both the ancient world, as well as that of the Neoclassical Revival at the turn of the nineteenth century, as presented by guest curators, Baylor Art Historians, Dr. Sean DeLouche and Dr. Nathan Elkins.

    The Augusteum is a grand publication dedicated to the ancient sculpture collected by Augustus II, the Prince Elector of Saxony, in Dresden, Germany, during the mid-eighteenth century. Published in German and French editions from 1804 to 1811, and again in 1837, the books, Augusteum, Dresdens antike Denkmäler enthaltend and Augusteum, ou Description des Monumens Antiques qui se trouvent à Dresde, include elaborate textual descriptions of the sculptures accompanied by 154 intricate engravings. Most of the illustrations depict sculptural figures from both front and back views.

    Beginning in 1723, Augustus II established the “Collection of Antique and Modern Sculptures” as part of his larger campaign to transform Dresden into a center for art and architecture in Germany. Many of the works he acquired came from the Chigi and Albani collections of Italy, whose antiquities originated predominantly from excavations in Rome and surrounding archeological sites. The Dresden Collection, currently housed in the historic Albertinum Museum in Dresden, is one of the oldest collections of ancient sculpture found outside Italy.

    “The Neoclassical Gaze: Myth and Reality of Ancient Sculpture”
    From 10:00 am - 6:00 pm at Martin Museum of Art, 60 Baylor Ave, Waco, TX 76706, USA

    The Martin Museum of Art presents its newest exhibit "The Neoclassical Gaze: Myth and Reality of Ancient Sculpture" from January 22 through March 8, 2019. The exhibit features early 19th-century engravings of Greek and Roman sculptures. Take a torch-lit guided tour of the exhibit at a special Valentine’s event February 14, which will include live music and hors d’oeuvres. The event is free, but space is limited. To reserve your spot, visit baylor.edu/martinmuseum.

    This exhibition features Wilhelm Gottlieb Becker’s Augusteum (1804-1811), a three-volume publication of engravings illustrating ancient Greek and Roman sculpture. These engravings will be displayed alongside plaster cast reproductions of ancient sculpture on loan from the Blanton Museum of Art, The University of Texas at Austin. These compelling works will be examined from the perspectives of both the ancient world, as well as that of the Neoclassical Revival at the turn of the nineteenth century, as presented by guest curators, Baylor Art Historians, Dr. Sean DeLouche and Dr. Nathan Elkins.

    The Augusteum is a grand publication dedicated to the ancient sculpture collected by Augustus II, the Prince Elector of Saxony, in Dresden, Germany, during the mid-eighteenth century. Published in German and French editions from 1804 to 1811, and again in 1837, the books, Augusteum, Dresdens antike Denkmäler enthaltend and Augusteum, ou Description des Monumens Antiques qui se trouvent à Dresde, include elaborate textual descriptions of the sculptures accompanied by 154 intricate engravings. Most of the illustrations depict sculptural figures from both front and back views.

    Beginning in 1723, Augustus II established the “Collection of Antique and Modern Sculptures” as part of his larger campaign to transform Dresden into a center for art and architecture in Germany. Many of the works he acquired came from the Chigi and Albani collections of Italy, whose antiquities originated predominantly from excavations in Rome and surrounding archeological sites. The Dresden Collection, currently housed in the historic Albertinum Museum in Dresden, is one of the oldest collections of ancient sculpture found outside Italy.

    Tickets cost $25-$30.

    Jo Dee Messina is a seasoned veteran in the music industry, always evolving and reintroducing herself and her sound as she gains new experiences in life. Jumpstarting her career, Jo Dee's breakout song, "Heads Carolina, Tails California," made her a household name. Following the success of her debut, Jo Dee posted nine No. 1 hits, sixteen Top 40 songs, sold over five million albums worldwide, and was honored by the ACM Awards, CMA Awards, and GRAMMY Awards. As Jo Dee's résumé grew, she proved to be a trendsetter and history-maker, becoming the first female in country music history to celebrate three consecutive multi-week, chart-topping songs.

    Jo Dee later parted ways with her long-time record label and embraced the strong, empowered female persona for which she became known. Taking matters into her own hands, Jo Dee created Dreambound Records, called on her fans to become her dedicated team, and released her most personal album to date, Me.

    Aside from her studio successes, Jo Dee has also created a reputation for herself as one of the most passionate, high-energy performers in the business. Sharing her hit tunes; newly penned, emotionally-driven songs; and personal testimony, Jo Dee has been traveling the country for many years, receiving rave reviews for her authenticity, commitment, and openness on stage. Hoping to inspire and enlighten fans from all walks of life with every step she takes, Jo Dee has made it her mission to present herself and her story with honesty, allowing people to see behind the masquerade.

    With a decorated past in the rearview mirror and endless dreams and an open road of possibility before her, this relatable woman, wife, mother, daughter, sister, friend, speaker, author, and incredibly gifted singer-songwriter has only just begun. Fueled by faith, belief, and love, Jo Dee pours her heart and soul into everybody she meets and everything she touches, which is perhaps why Jo Dee Messina is such a timeless name in the music industry.

    Waco Jazz Orchestra Presents: "That Mancini Magic!" feat. Cecil Welch
    From 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm at Waco Hippodrome Theatre, 724 Austin Ave, Waco, TX 76701, USA

    Tickets cost $15-$30.

    In his long and distinguished career Cecil Welch has traveled the globe giving concerts in thousands of venues, from the quaint theatres of America to the greatest concert halls the world has to offer. From the studio to the stage he has created a unique style of performance, creating an ambience that captures the musical heart of every audience. His distinct sound can be heard on television soundtracks, radio programming, and even air in-flight stereo.

    Growing up in Atlanta under musically inclined parents, Cecil joined the Atlanta Pops during his teen years, and the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra shortly thereafter. A business graduate of Georgia Tech and an alumnus of the Tech Band, Cecil continued with the Atlanta Symphony during the tenure of Maestro Robert Shaw.

    In 1976, after having guest-conducted the ASO, Henry Mancini, Academy Award-winning film composer, invited Cecil to join him as his lead trumpeter and soloist. Until Mancini’s death in 1994, they traveled the world performing with major orchestras such as the London Symphony, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Boston Pops, Toronto Symphony, Mexico City Symphony, San Juan Symphony, Manila Symphony, and the Tokyo Philharmonic.

    During his 18 years with Mancini, Cecil formed his own music production company that continues today as a division of Company Welch, LLC. In addition to music and recording production, the company has provided orchestral personnel for many of America's most talented performers such as Burt Bacharach, Tony Bennett, Rosemary Clooney, Natalie Cole, Perry Como, Harry Connick, Jr., Ella Fitzgerald, Josh Groban, Bob Hope, Barry Manilow, Johnny Mathis, Liza Minnelli, Joni Mitchell, Olivia Newton-John, Kenny Rogers, Usher, Dionne Warwick, Andy Williams, and Steve Lawrence with Eydie Gorme.

    Company Welch has provided orchestras for numerous Atlanta stage events, including the Fox Theatre’s original Broadway production of Phantom of the Opera, and at Chastain Park Amphitheatre, Welch orchestras have regularly worked with headliner groups such as The Moody Blues, Gladys Knight and the Pips, and Earth, Wind & Fire. It was Company Welch that collaborated with Olympics entertainment planners on the 1996 Atlanta Olympics for the flag arrival in Savannah, and for full orchestra performance on Centennial Park’s main stage. Cecil continues to act as producer and performer to provide supportive music services for the public’s entertainment needs, from the small ensemble to the large orchestra.

    As an international solo trumpet artist, Cecil performs on the concert stage, and lectures on the history of the trumpet in the educational environment. He has personally entertained President Jimmy Carter for two birthday celebrations, and appeared as a guest performer on the Jeff Foxworthy comedy TV show “Blue Collar Comedy.” In addition to being a regular soloist and lecturer for the Holland America, Seabourn, and Cunard Cruise Lines, Cecil offers music master classes in schools across America. He is an anchor member of the Hollywood Hills Orchestra, launched in 1996 with pianist Mac Frampton to perform the music of Mancini in the small venue, and he strives to continue Mancini’s efforts to bolster the performing of live music and the training of young musicians in the performance and business of music.

    As a recording artist, Cecil has produced four solo trumpet CDs, including a tribute to the music of Henry Mancini, "Too Little Time," and a salute to the big band trumpeters of the past, "Moonlight Blues." These recordings are all under his own label, Brass Menagerie Recording Company.

    In 2015 Cecil and his wife co-authored Two for the Road: the Trumpet and Me, an auto-biographical look at the building of a music career in Atlanta’s mid-20th century arts community, the years of travel with Mancini, and the contributions the “master of melody” made to the film industry. With a 5-star rating, it can be found on Amazon.com, as well as BarnesandNoble.com, and Powells.com.

    Kyle Park
    From 8:30 pm - 11:00 pm at The Backyard Bar Stage and Grill, 1135, 511 S 8th St, Waco, TX 76706, USA

    Tickets cost $10-$15.

    Growing up during a time when mainstream radio could still show love to throwbacks, Kyle Park was soaking up the tunes of Roger Miller, Merle Haggard, George Jones and the list goes on. It was his Dad that introduced him to classic country, the lyrically driven storytelling of Opry legends that would eventually help mold him into the artist that he is today.

    After the loss of his dad in 1998, Kyle found healing in country music. He picked up a guitar at the age of 14 and never looked back, with his first paid gig coming one year later. At the time, he couldn't see far enough down the road to realize that he was beginning a career as a singer/songwriter.

    "I was really only focusing on playing country music. That's all I wanted to do at the time, and all the time. I made my first record simply because I wanted to record the songs I had written. I hadn't grasped that this was ever going to take me where it has, on an indescribable musical journey."

    By the time he had released his debut album (‘Big Time') in 2005 at the age of 20, Kyle was performing hour-long shows with more than fifty-percent of his own music. Coming a long way from performing for his family in the backyard, this young man from Leander (north of Austin) was quickly becoming one of the hottest names in the Texas country music scene.

    Thirteen years into his professional career, Kyle and his band have played in more than five countries, playing shows from Alaska to Germany, and frequenting more than a dozen states on a regular basis.

    He's impressively had seven #1 singles on the Texas Regional Radio Report (TRRR) and eleven singles on the Texas Music Chart's Top 10. His limited edition 'Fall EP' (now part of the "Make or Break Me full-length album) peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard Heatseekers South Central list. Kyle's reaped consistent national press coverage from CMT, TCN (The Country Network), Taste of Country, Country Weekly, All Music, Guitar World and more. He was direct support for numerous notable and legendary artists including George Strait, Clint Black, Mark Chestnutt, Gary Allan and more.

    So, where do you go from here? Back where you came from!

    Kyle's latest project, his sixth studio album Don't Forget Where You Come From leans exactly in the direction you would expect.

    Inspired by the style of music he grew up listening to, this new album is a return to Kyle's signature neo-traditional country sound brimming with honkytonk-fueled fiddle, pedal steel and searing guitar riffs punctuated by his most honest and contemplative lyrics to date.

    Don't Forget Where You Come From is Kyle's reaffirmation record, focusing back on the storytelling side of country music.

    "I believe that this record carries more meaning and much better stories than anything else I've released. It's a storytelling album, what I believe country music is and has always been: lyrics first."

    Recorded in Austin at Ray Benson's Bismeaux Studio, Don't Forget Where You Come From was produced by Park and boasts nine original tracks written or co-written by Park, along with one cover tune.

    Kyle has worked hard to develop himself as a writer and a producer, making regular trips to Nashville for writing sessions and producing music for other artists as well as his own.

    Even though this newest release is Kyle's way of bringing things full-circle, we can't expect any signs of things slowing down.

    "I'm a "lifer." I was fortunate enough to find my passion very early in life."

    With six records under his belt, it's safe to say that there is plenty more to come down the road.

    Women have played important — although not always acknowledged — roles in Waco’s development. During our walk through downtown, we will discuss women’s roles as pioneers, city leaders, and savvy entrepreneurs. While some of these women worked within social conventions — others were more “infamous” in their endeavors. Celebrate Women’s History Month with a walk highlighting Waco women. Organized by Baylor’s Women’s and Gender Studies Program, Historic Waco Foundation and Waco Girl Troop Scouts BSA, Troop 308. (This is a reprise of last year's Women's History Walk. So if you missed it, here's your chance! If you came, come again!)

    Date: March 23

    Time: 10 AM

    Meet up location: Indian Spring Park, 500 University Parks Drive (Across from the Hilton near the Suspension Bridge. )

    Walk Length: Approximately 1.5 miles

    Walk organizers: Lisa Shaver, Jill Barrow, Ashley Bean Thornton

    Got questions?: Email AshleyT@actlocallywaco.org

    Accessibility: Most of the walk will be on sidewalks and city streets, but plan to negotiate uneven pavement, a few curbs, and several grassy patches.

    Hydration: Bring your own water. It’s March, but it is still a good idea to hydrate!

    Dogs: Doggies are welcome, but they MUST be on a leash and you MUST come prepared to scoop the poop!

    Weather/Cancellation Plan: We plan to walk rain or shine, so if it looks like rain, bring an umbrella. In the event that it is a terrible storm or something happens and we have to cancel, we will send out a note to the email list. To subscribe to the email list, click here: http://eepurl.com/cG7kdj.

    A firecracker of talent that powers one of the hottest shows in any genre of music!

    World Class Musicians, and an Award Winning Voice seamlessly set the stage for a breath-taking, one of-a-kind, must-see performance; that reaches beyond the boundaries of bluegrass music!

    Written words can give you but a glimpse of the artist known as The Queen of Bluegrass, as deemed by the Wall Street Journal. But it’s only when you see this artist, that you can feel the energy and experience the excitement of her music, to truly know why she and her amazing band are the “Most Award Winning Band in Bluegrass Music History, with over 100 awards!”

    Breaking a stereotypical image, Rhonda Vincent takes the stage in designer gowns, stiletto heels, in a take-charge manner, far from the type set that Hollywood has portrayed as the image of acoustic music.

    “We’re changing the landscape of our music in many aspects; to show we are sophisticated, educated, and hold a deep respect for the tradition of our music, keeping the roots embedded within the perimeters of our songs, to create a balance of tradition mixed with a contemporary flare, and present our own unique brand of music,” Rhonda explains.

    “We want our listeners to hear with their hearts,” says Rhonda. “Music is a business, but I hope we don’t let it show that much,” she continues, “The business part is a necessity; but most of all it’s the love of the music, that keeps us doing what we do!”

    Rhonda Vincent makes having a successful career look easy. Behind the scenes, she’s a savvy businesswoman with a tireless work ethic. At center stage, she makes a magical transformation to wow her audiences, with a fresh cover girl face, and complimentary curves; all while showing off her chops as the genre’s finest vocalist, and playing break-neck riffs on the mandolin.

    The Voice of Rhonda Vincent is the centerpiece, surrounded by the rhythms of each instrument; featuring the individual styles of the world class musicians that collectively make up The Rage. Their talent is unmatched. Each and every member can sing every part, and play every instrument. Their depth of skill sets the stage for the highest level of professionalism in every performance.

    Reaching beyond the boundaries of bluegrass music, Rhonda Vincent & The Rage are one of the HOTTEST TICKETS in any genre of music!

    From 8:30 pm - 11:00 pm at The Backyard Bar Stage and Grill, 1135, 511 S 8th St, Waco, TX 76706, USA

    Tickets cost $15-$20.

    Born September 6th, 1939 in Akron, Ohio, USA. From the age of nine, Coe was in and out of reform schools, correction centers and prisons. According to his publicity handout, he spent time on Death Row after killing a fellow inmate who demanded oral sex. When Rolling Stone magazine questioned this, Coe responded with a song, ‘I'd Like To Kick The Shit Out Of You'. Whatever the truth of the matter, Coe was paroled in 1967 and took his songs about prison life to Shelby Singleton who released two albums on his SSS label. Coe wrote Tanya Tucker's 1974 US country number 1, ‘Would You Lay With Me (In A Field Of Stone)?'. He took to calling himself Davey Coe - the Mysterious Rhinestone Cowboy, performing in a mask, and driving a hearse. He satirized the themes of country music with hilarious additions to Steve Goodman's ‘You Never Even Called Me By My Name', but has often used the clichés himself. His defiant stance and love of motorbikes, multiple tattoos and ultra-long hair made him a natural ‘Nashville outlaw', which he wrote about in the self-glorifying ‘Longhaired Redneck' and ‘Willie, Waylon And Me'.

    In 1978 Johnny Paycheck had a US country number 1 with Coe's ‘Take This Job And Shove It', which inspired a film of the same title in 1981, and Coe's own successes included the witty ‘Divers Do It Deeper' (1978), ‘Jack Daniels If You Please' (1979), ‘Now I Lay Me Down To Cheat' (1982), ‘The Ride' (1983), which conjures up a meeting between Coe and Hank Williams, and ‘Mona Lisa's Lost Her Smile' (1984), which reached number 2 on the US country charts, his highest position as a performer. Recordings with other performers include ‘Don't Cry Darlin" and ‘This Bottle (In My Hand)' with George Jones, ‘I've Already Cheated On You' with Willie Nelson, and ‘Get A Little Dirt On Your Hands' with Bill Anderson.

    Coe's 1978 album Human Emotions was about his divorce - one side being ‘Happy Side' and the other ‘Su-I-side'. The controversial cover of Texas Moon shows the bare backsides of his band and crew, and he has also released two mail-order albums of explicit songs, Nothing Sacred and Underground.

    Coe appears incapable of separating the good from the ridiculous and his albums are erratic. At his best, he is a sensitive, intelligent writer. Similarly, his stage performances with his Tennessee Hat Band differ wildly in length and quality: sometimes it is non-stop music, sometimes it features conjuring tricks. Coe's main trick, however, is to remain successful, as country music fans grow exasperated with his over-the-top publicity. He may still be an outlaw but as Waylon Jennings remarks in ‘Living Legends', that only means double-parking on Music Row.

    You can capsulize most pop music acts by reciting how many hits they’ve had and how many millions of albums they’ve sold. But these conventional measurements fall short when you’re assessing the impact of The Beach Boys. This band has birthed a torrent of hit singles and sold albums by the tens of millions. But its greater significance lies in the fact that The Beach Boys’ songs have forever changed the musical landscape, profoundly influencing countless performing artists to follow.

    The Beach Boys are led by Mike Love and Bruce Johnston, who, along with Jeffrey Foskett, Christian Love, Tim Bonhomme, John Cowsill, Keith Hubacher and Scott Totten continue the legacy of the iconic American band.Grammy-winning songwriter Bruce Johnston joined The Beach Boys in 1965, replacing Glenn Campbell, who filled-in for Brian Wilson, on vocals/bass, when he retired from touring. Highly regarded in his field, Johnston’s vocal work with such legendary artists as Elton John and Pink Floyd firmly established him among rock’s elite artists.

    Captained by Mike Love, The Beach Boys play an astoundingly busy schedule of concerts, averaging 150 shows a year, ranging from sundrenched summer festivals to gala New Year’s celebrations and special events across the globe.

    Deep in the Heart Film Festival
    From 10:00 am - 5:00 pm at Waco Hippodrome Theatre, 724 Austin Ave, Waco, TX 76701, USA

    WHAT IS THIS?
    First, these are not artsy-fartsy films. Don't worry about "getting it". We've selected films that we find meaningful. Stories that most everyone can relate to. So get ready to laugh, cry or even scream, because these movies are made to connect with audiences.

    We're bringing some of the best indie films to Central Texas.

    You'll get to:
    See movies you won't see anywhere else
    Meet and talk with attending directors, actors, writers and filmmakers
    Walk the red carpet at the historic Hippodrome
    Learn more about the filmmaking industry and craft

    WHO IS THIS FOR?
    Everyone! Anyone who likes movies will find something to enjoy at the festival.

    HOW DO I ATTEND THE FESTIVAL?
    You can dip your toe in, and just watch one movie. Or you can dive in, buy a pass, see everything and attend every party. Our suggestion: Check out the schedule. There's a description for each program. See what interests you. We're sure something that will entertain you.

    DO I NEED TICKETS?
    Yes. There are two ways to attend the festival:

    VIP - ALL ACCESS Passes: These get you into every film, party, and educational session. It's the A-list way to attend the festival
    Individual tickets: A single general admission ticket to a feature film or short film program. (You can also buy a pack of six tickets for the price of four. Check out the Ticket Six-Pack)
    WHERE IS THIS?
    It's all in downtown Waco

    Highlights for this year's lineup include:

    Caroline - Drama - When plans fall through, a six-year-old is faced with a big responsibility on a hot Texas day. This Texas made short film was the only American short film in the 2018 Cannes Short Film competition, and it made the prestigious Oscars shortlist for 2019.

    Let'er Buck - Documentary - For seven days the little town of Pendleton, Oregon bursts alive to put on one of most legendary rodeos and Wild West pageants in the world- the Pendleton Round-Up and Happy Canyon Night Show. Over a century old, this all-volunteer show is a veritable living history propelled by the indomitable spirits of the local families whose heritage stretches back to the very roots of the American West.

    The Last Whistle - Drama - When the all-star player of the local high school football team collapses during practice, all eyes turn to the storied head coach. Instead of mollifying the situation, the coach tries to maintain the team's winning streak. Filmed in Texas.

    This is Love - Documentary - At the age of 18, Rudy Love was touring the US with Little Richard. By the 1970s, he was working as a pilot vocalist for The Temptations and Marvin Gaye, and his songs were being recorded by Esther Phillips and Isaac Hayes. So what happened to his solo career, and why he is finally achieving the respect he has long deserved? Featuring Mick Fleetwood, Sinbad, and George Clinton.

    The Quiet Room - Horror - When Michael's attempt at suicide awakens a psych ward demon, he must stop her before she kills everyone in the hospital he connects with. Director Sam Wineman, "I made The Quiet Room because time and again, horror has been a space that elevates marginalized voices...I set out to create the film I haven’t seen: a queer character of color with a true-to-life story about living with mental illness."
