COOPER'S SEAFOOD WATERFRONT 304 Kennedy Blvd., Pittston, PA - 654-6883 $10.99 U. UTAH PHILLIPS Appears at Chicory House Sept. 10 Self-proclaimed “Golden Voice of the Great Southwest,” teller of tales so tall they cast shadows on the moon, author of some of the best songs and funniest one-liners in the language: U. Utah Phillips is a chronicler of working people and wanderers, of “Wobblies” and other radicals, a determined irritant to authority in any form, and one of the last in the great American tradition of common sense hu- morists. A favorite at folk festivals and clubs around the country, and at more formal venues such as Carnegie Hall, Phillips will regale Northeastern Pennsylvania audiences with his songs, jokes and shaggy dog stories, his political barbs and musings, when he appears at the Chicory House in Wilkes-Barre in a special Thursday evening concert, Sept. 10 at 8 p.m. The nonprofit, volunteer-operated Chicory House, Northeastern Pennsylvania's only venue dedicated to presenting folk music, holds its coffeehouse concerts in the Community Room of St. Stephen's Episcopal Church, South Franklin Street across from Boscov's, in downtown Wilkes-Barre. Doors will open for U. Utah Phillips’ concert at 7:30. Bruce “U. Utah” Phillips (Ask what the “U.” stands for-you’'ll never get a straight answer!) is a genuine American character of legendary proportions. Born in Cleveland about 57 years ago, the son of labor organizers, he grew up in the state whose name became his nickname when he served as a soldier in the Korean War. His experiences in Korea led some years later to his becoming a principled and dedicated pacifist. Phillips is also one of the thou- sand or so remaining members of the once-powerful-and feared- International Workers of the World, or “Wobblies,” the anarcho- syndicalist “one big union” that commanded the loyalty of tens of thousands of workers in the early days of the century. A staunch advocate of IWW principles, Phillips is also a storehouse of Wobbly folklore-and songs-songs that make up a solid corner of the foundation underlying modern American folk music. } Admission to U. Utah Phillips’ Thursday, Sept. 10 concert at he Chicory House will be $6 at the door. There are no advance sales or reserved seats-table and other seating will be on a first-come, first- served basis. Desserts and beverages will be available for purchase.
