MID-COLUMBIA COMMUNITY CONCERT ASSOCIATION PRESENTS
DANCING WITH THE GORGE STARS
FRIDAY, JAN. 9, 7 p.m.
AT THE DALLES HIGH SCHOOL.
Mid-Columbia Community Concert Association (MCCCA) is proud to bring back, by popular demand, the 12th Annual Dancing with The Gorge Stars fundraiser. Six local Gorge Stars will compete for your votes at this mid-winter event. Like the reality TV dance show, our contestants learn a dance routine prior to show time. But in this show, the participants are our friends and neighbors from the Gorge area. Paired with a professional dancer from the Utah Ballroom Dance Co., they get just five rehearsals to learn and perfect their routines before performing on stage in front of a live audience. Video highlights of the rehearsals are shown during the event to showcase how far each contestant has come in this short timeframe.

All Ages
He's a lights-out guitar (player) and his band is as good as any band in the country. But he's also a top-shelf writer, with a blade-sharp wit and love songs so real and tender they seem to transcend the form. I know of few writers whose relationship to their own landscape, in this case the rural north, is so elemental, and so integral. His songs feel like weather.
