Dan Kouba and the Journeymen to headline RC concert
By Adam D. HessDan Kouba and the Journeymen will be playing a Veterans Tribute Concert at the Richland Center City Auditorium Saturday, November 9th. The show starts at 7 PM and doors will at 6.
The cost of the show is $20 per person, and all tickets will be sold at the door.
Dan Kouba said of making music and of his respect towards Veterans: “When I write about something, I’m either proud of or upset about it,” Kouba says of his work on an album that was inspired by the documentary Apache Blues. “The purpose of the Apache Blues documentary is to mentor the guys who are coming home today with PTSD. We’ve been there, done that, listen to us, listen to what we do. You need to talk about it, share, you cannot hold it in you. I’ve got so many friends who are Vietnam vets, and so many that are gone. I’m 70, my brother is a Vietnam vet, I feel for those guys.”
All proceeds will benefit local Veteran efforts.
Along with Kouba, the “Journeymen” include: Joe “The Man In Black” Havlik, “Musical Mary” Siefert, Joe Sukana, and John “Dr. J” Guelig.
Refreshments will be sold at the event.
