A Night of Melodious Misadventure at Piper’s

Gather ‘round, for I bring tidings of a most harmonious nature!

Our dear friend—who, by no fault of her own, is also a celebrated country music songstress—Lacy J. Dalton, shall be gracing the stage come Friday, February 21, at that hallowed hall of culture and calamity, Piper’s Opera House. She shan’t be alone in this endeavor, for David John of the Comstock Cowboys shall be riding alongside her, and they aim to deliver an evening of song fit to charm the gold fillings right out of your teeth.

Ms. Dalton dubbed the concert “Still My Valentine,”—an event promising more sentiment than a widow’s lament and more twang than a screen door in a windstorm. Those with the good sense to attend shall get treated to the rare spectacle of two fine entertainers, making historic Virginia City all the finer for their presence.

The doors shall swing open at the respectable hour of 5 p.m., with dinner to follow at 6 p.m.–that’s supper for those of you raised right–and the performance commencing at 7:30 p.m.—which is just about the time when respectable folk settle in for the night but the rest of us commence to livin’.

Should you wish to secure your place at this auspicious gathering, you may procure your tickets online, or if you prefer transactions conducted with a proper handshake and the scent of whiskey in the air, you may obtain them at the famed Bucket of Blood Saloon.

And should you wish to keep up with Ms. Dalton’s further adventures, you may follow her on that modern miracle known as Facebook—though I reckon if Mark Twain had such a contraption, he’d have never gotten a thing done.
