2018 - Oberlin Concert in the Park July 27th

Post by Marla »

We have been invited to attend a concert in the park in Oberlin again. We have been given the following 3 dates to choose from. Give us your opinion on which date or concert you would prefer.

Saturday, June 23rd; 630-830pm, featuring “Nitebridge”, R&B and Motown band. Note: This show on Saturday to coincide with Oberlin’s Chalkwalk event. So very cool art on downtown Oberlin sidewalks. See link for more info about this event. http://www.oberlinchalkwalk.com/

Friday, July 13th; 7-9pm, featuring the “Classic Rock Trio” playing songs from the 60’s and 70’s. These three musicians are from “Wish You Were Here” (Pink Floyd cover band) and are extremely solid.

Friday, July 27th, 630-930pm, featuring the “Dan Zola Orchestra” (about a 40 piece band), playing swing type music. This shows coincides with Oberlin’s Community Picnic and an old fashion “Bikeman” demonstration.

I don't weld. I don't fabricate. And I can't even fix most of the things I break. But I do have niche-iness to offer. You're welcome.

Just a reminder.

We have confirmation from the City that North Professor, in front of
Finney Chapel, will be closed off and reserved for LEAKOIL "bus" traffic starting at
630pm. You may arrive earlier and park.
That being said,feel free to arrive earlier. You most likely will be able to park along N Professor St. prior to it being blocked off for us. There are a number of good eateries in short walking distance from Tappan Square.

Also, in the event of rain,we will post any cancellation info by 5PM

JUST RECEIVED AN UPDATE

The street will be closed at 5 p.m. The band plays from 6:30 to 7:30 and then from 8:30 to 9:30 – they will probably show up around 5:30 – maybe earlier.

Bike demo will be on West College street.

The picnic will start at 5:30. Enjoy food cooked right on Tappan Square. You may buy a hamburger, chicken, brat or hotdog meal. You'll also receive chips/pretzels and a bottle of water. There will be free ice cream. Gee Gee’s popcorn will also be selling popcorn. The Dan Zola Orchestra plays from 6:30-7:30 p.m. and then the Ohio Wheelmen Show begins. The demonstration includes period costumed riders performing on antique bicycles. The band resumes at 8:30 and will continue until 9:30.”
