Michael and Kevin Bacon of The Bacon Brothers performed a concert at the Colonial Theatre in Phoenixville on Friday to benefit the theatre and French and Pickering Creeks Conservation Trust.
Richard Callene enjoys The Bacon Brothers' music, showmanship and contribution to the Chester County community. But just once, he'd like to see Kevin Bacon's wife, Kyra Sedgwick, at one of the band's shows, he said and smiled. Callene and his wife Kim, of Perkasie, have been to three Bacon Brothers concerts. On Friday, the Callenes were at the Colonial Theatre in Phoenixville to see the band play for the fourth time. "It's a really fun, entertaining evening. They interact with the audience," Richard Callene said. "We own all their CDs," Kim Callene said. Friday's event raised money for the theater and French and Pickering Creeks Conservation Trust. The non-profit groups partner to support and grow cultural events and land preservation. …

I hope the Bacon Brothers do not leave their diesel tour bus idling behind the Colonial Theater for the entire duration of the show like they did several years ago. It is non-sensical to be performing a concert to raise money and awareness for environmental causes, and to have a bus idling for several hours outside while they perform! Would love to see the Patch check on this if they provide any … more ›
Guests raise a wee dram to benefit the Colonial Theatre.
As the audience filed into Phoenixville's Colonial Theatre Friday night to screen Oscar hopeful The King's Speech, few suspected that upstairs, a sold-out crowd was enjoying a very different UK import.

Now a resident of East Coventry, Walsh is the president of Cloonaughill Celtic Malts, Inc. and author of Whisky Dreams: A Culinary Journey through the World of Single Malt Whiskies.
