Dear friends and fans,

I have had an amazing year this year.  Not only has my health been restored back to nearly normal, but so many new horizons have been accomplished and others are being spawned for launching in the near future.  I have recently been blessed with yet another major fulfillment in life.  I am so proud to announce that my work has been recently recognized by the Musical Instrument Museum (MIM) in Phoenix.  Amazing!  Needless to say, I am totally honored and humbled beyond words.  Frankly, the recognition that a folk music singer/songwriter gets, can become pretty slim, from time to time.  In fact, sometimes one wonders if anyone out there is paying any attention or really cares. This show of support for my work by the MIM is deeply appreciated.  Thank you.

If you have not had the opportunity to visit the MIM yet, you are missing one of the most fabulous museums that have ever been created…and it is right at your fingertips here in Phoenix.  It is truly a world class facility.  It could easily compete among the fabulous museums in Washington, DC.  Phoenix should be very proud that that the MIM has chosen Arizona for their location.  Thank you, MIM, for choosing us.

Dolan's Special MIM Concert on July 8, 2013:

I will be presenting my one man show, “An Arizona Experience” in concert at the MIM Theater on Monday evening July 8, 2013 at 7:00 p.m.  This is going to be a very special milepost concert, as I will be premiering my all new digital slide show for the very first time in the Phoenix area.  For you longtime fans, the show will still contain my usual Arizona photography, but I have now retired my antiquated slide projectors and replaced them with vibrant video projected images.  My old 35mm slide photography has been digitized and totally refurbished, totally repaired, and beautifully color corrected to better than new condition.  My accompanying slide production has also been updated.  It is now computer programed, so that the photo images more creatively support the storyline of the songs that I sing.  Zooms, pans, fades, dissolves, flips, and many other special effects have been added, to heighten the visual impact of the show.

Please come and see what I have done, and help me to celebrate this special occasion at the MIM.  What better place to launch my new show to the future, than with this organization who also respects and values the roots from where it has come

Make your reservations now, as the MIM Theater has assigned seating and I feel that the good seats down front will certainly go first and fast.  For further information regarding tickets and reservations, click on the link below.
