Music Movie Mondays Series:
Concert for George
Special one-night-only screening of the Grammy-winning concert film
followed by an interactive discussion moderated by music journalist Bill Kopp
George Harrison was sometimes referred to as “the quiet Beatle.”
Somewhat overshadowed by the immense songwriting of John Lennon
and Paul McCartney, his artistry might not have always received the
recognition it deserved. But Harrison – already the composer of classic
tracks like “Something” and “Here Comes the Sun” – blossomed as a
solo artist in the post-Beatles era. His 1970 triple album All Things Must
Pass is a landmark work. Along the way, Harrison developed deep and
lasting friendships with celebrated names in music, the arts,
entertainment and philanthropy.
In the wake of George’s untimely passing in 2002, an all-star group of those friends mounted a
concert in tribute to their friend. A film of that performance at London’s Royal Albert Hall, Concert for
George won a Grammy Award for Best Long Form Music Video.
In commemoration of the 20 th anniversary of the tribute event, a limited-engagement screening of
Concert for George is being scheduled in select theaters. Asheville’s Grail Moviehouse is hosting
Concert for George one night only: January 9, 2023. It’s the latest installment of the Music Movie
Mondays series hosted by author and music journalist Bill Kopp. Sponsored by AshevilleFM, the
event will include a brief introduction, a screening of the film, and an interactive discussion
immediately following.
As the press kit for Concert for George summarizes:
“On November 29, 2002, one year after his passing, Olivia Harrison and Eric Clapton
organized a performance tribute to celebrate the life and music of George Harrison. Held
at London’s Royal Albert Hall, the momentous evening featured George’s songs, and music
he loved, performed by artists including Eric Clapton, Joe Brown, Dhani Harrison, Jools
Holland, Jeff Lynne, Paul McCartney, Monty Python, Tom Petty, Billy Preston, Ravi &
Anoushka Shankar, Ringo Starr and more.”
Hosted by Asheville-based author and music journalist Bill Kopp, Grail Moviehouse presents a special
screening of Concert for George on Monday,
Jan. 9 @ 7pm and sponsored by
AshevilleFM. After a brief introduction, we’ll watch the film together. And then afterward,
we’ll engage in a moderated discussion about George Harrison and the
Concert for George in his honor.
The event is the second and latest in the series of Music Movie Mondays at
Grail Moviehouse. We’ll watch and discuss new releases, classics and cult
favorites.
Join us at TFAC for the 2022/23 Capers & Heists Series, kicking off in October with The Sting. Doors open at 6:15 p.m. for fun and mingling.
The film starts at 7:00 p.m. Tickets will be available to purchase online or at the door and concessions will be available.
Tickets are $8/person per film or $58/Season Ticket.

January 10 @ 7 PM
Doors open at 6:30 PM
King in The Wilderness chronicles the final chapters of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s life, revealing a conflicted leader who faced an onslaught of criticism from both sides of the political spectrum. While the Black Power movement saw his nonviolence as weakness and President Lyndon B. Johnson saw his anti-Vietnam War speeches as irresponsible, Dr. King’s unyielding belief in a peaceful protest became a testing point for a nation on the brink of chaos.
King in The Wilderness shares stirring new perspectives on Dr. King’s character, his radical doctrine of nonviolence and his internal philosophical struggles prior to his assassination in 1968.
Following the film, Dr. Steve O’Neill (Professor of History, Furman University) and Dr. Holly Pinheiro, Jr. (Asst. Professor of African American History, Furman University) will lead a discussion that audience members are invited to participate in.
Join Burton Street friends and neighbors for dinner and a movie highlighting the accomplishments of Black Americans. Please call (828) 254-1943 for more info.
The Asheville Truffle Experience will rock the mountains from Friday through Sunday, February 10th through 12th, 2023, with multiple mouth-watering sessions in beautiful downtown Asheville and environs. Guests will plunge into the mystery of this ultra-prized ingredient, of which many species exist—traditionally hailing from the deep, dark woods of France, Italy and Spain, but now also cultivated across the States, particularly in the northwest and southeast.
The event will kick off at 5:00pm on Friday the 10th, in the upstairs lounge of Michel Baudouin’s Bouchon (Lexington Avenue), with truffled appetizers and sparkling beverages, and a chance to mingle and share stories with other truffle aficionados.
At 8:00pm there will be a showing of The Truffle Hunters, in the intimate setting of Warner Studios, just a short walk down from Bouchon, on Broadway.
Saturday morning the 12th will begin with a culinary demo, from 10:00am-12:00 noon, at the Timbers Clubhouse, off Beaverdam Road, followed by a tasting of dishes prepared.
An educational session, for those who wish to learn more about all aspects of truffles, from the planting to the varieties to the harvesting and highlighting on the plate, will be held from 3:00-5:00pm at Warner Studios on Broadway, and will feature experts in the field of truffle history, cultivation, hunting, and cuisine. From 5:00-6:00pm, light appetizers will be served, along with a chance to ask questions of the experts.
On Saturday evening, guests will be delighted with a selection of provocative dishes during a special seated wine-paired Truffle Extravaganza, orchestrated by Chef Michel Baudouin, at RendezVous, off New Haw Creek Road.
On Sunday the 12th we will head out to the truffle orchard at the Mountain Research Station in Waynesville, overseen by Dr. Jeanine Davis. There we will witness a truffle dog in action, observe the various stages of a truffle orchard in production, and sample some truffle snacks before departing.
Pricing for the entire weekend is available in several packages. You may also register for individual sessions à la carte.
Visit www.ashevilletruffle.com for further details, or contact Susi Gott Séguret at 828-301-2792.
Covid protocol: Please test yourself before attending, and stay home if you have any symptoms or evidence of positivity. Masks are encouraged whenever in close quarters. Please use your judgement, and respect those who may be of fragile temperament.
Note: Haywood Park Hotel is offering a 10% discount to ATE attendees, as long as rooms are available. Call the front desk ((828-252-2522) and ask for the truffle discount.
Grail Moviehouse in Asheville’s River Arts District continues its popular event series: Music Movie Mondays. Showcasing the best in new, classic and cult films about music, these special screenings feature an introduction by music journalist Bill Kopp (that’s me), followed by a screening of the film and then a moderated discussion about what we’ve just seen and heard.
The latest in the series is WATTSTAX, the 1973 film documenting the all-star concert held in the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. The show — attended by more than 110,000 concertgoers — featured headliner Isaac Hayes and many other big names from legendary Memphis-based label Stax Records. My special co-host for the post-film discussion is Sidney Barnes (Motown staff writer, member of psych-soul band Rotary Connection, etc.). Details are in the attached press release; more info at http://musoscribe.com/movies
