YUP

It’s hard to believe but tonight is the last Hot Summer Nights concert of the year. It seems like summer just got off and rolling! Fall is a great season though, so we’ve got that going for us…which is nice.

Tonight’s show is sure to please those who dig classic and contemporary covers that you can sing along with.  You’ll recognize lots of tunes that these guys will be laying down so bring your blanket, beach chair, air mattress, living room couch or anything else that makes you comfy and truck on down to the Central School lawn for a toe-tapping good time!

Okay, so rumor has it that the J of PB&J will be unavailable tonight but fortunately another J will be filling in for the P who will be covering for the unavailable J. Got it? Yeah, neither do I.  Just show up and see what happens!  By the way, the super-fantastic-awesomely-talented Taygra Longstaff will be opening.

SPECIAL NOTE: This show begins at 6pm so that it may complete before the vampires come out. Don’t be late!

See y’all on the lawn!

A Baby Grand that won’t break the bank!

Could it be that we get yet another dry Thursday evening? Methinks we will once again be on the lawn for our next to last gig of the summer.  Come on down tonight to hear some rockin’ tunes from a rockin’ band that will get you moving and grooving.  Traditionally a function band formed in the late 80’s, Baby Grand will likely play lots and lots of tunes we all know and love.  Come to think of it, you may want to just leave those chairs and blankets at home tonight and wear some comfortable dancing shoes instead! Heck, with all those calories you’ll be burning why not have an extra slice or two of pizza while you’re at it. It’ll be available along with drinks and other goodies from our lovely concession folks, smack dab on the Central School lawn.

SPECIAL NOTE: Due to the  23.5 degrees of the Earth’s rotation axis with respect to the ecliptic axis, we will be starting slightly early tonight so we can have a full length event prior to Mister Sun hiding behind the school. Our opener, Avalon, will be taking the stage at about 6:20 instead of the traditional 6:30.  You can miss a lot in 10 minutes so don’t be late!

See ya’ll on the lawn!!!

Alright, alright! The weather is finally cooperating with us and giving our fair town some good ole fashioned sunshine and heat for our Thursday night shows. Tonight expects to be no different. Although what will be different is the concert itself. What you will get for the ridiculously low price of “FREE” is no less than 20 acts that may eventually go on to be the next “American Idols”.  That’s right, tonight is the second annual Sobopalooza, the night where we celebrate the incredible, young musical wonders that surround us. I bet you never thought you may be living next to the next Mick Jagger or Joni Mitchell,  did ya? Well, these kiddos are gonna blow you away with their talent so don’t miss a single minute of tonight’s show. If you show up, I promise it’ll make you proud to live in this stellar community with all these great kids.

VERY IMPORTANT!! This event starts at 5pm and goes until darkness envelops Central School so we can provide you with lots and lots of music. So bring the family, bring your smiles and also bring some pocket money for food, glow sticks and whatever else our merchandising department has cooked up. I hear through my sources that there will even be 2009 Sobopalooza CDs for sale. Incredible!
