Telling You What's Goin' On

What kind of McMusical stuff is there to enjoy in the remaining days of June? A list of such follows (and there’s lots more stuff going on in July, so check back.)

This Saturday (June 17), The Sparks Band plays at The Hody Bar & Grill in Middleton (Wisconsin, duh!). Scratch that itch for rockin’ to radio rarities of the 60s. Beer also available. The Sparks Band (Mark Loder, Rich Larson, Tom McCarty) display their distinctive retro repertoire starting at 9 pm.  

Then, Wednesday, June 21 Big Wes Turner’s Trio celebrates the return of playin’ partner and good buddy Gary Hendrickson. Big Wes’s boys participate in Make Music Madison with a performance at Talbot Studio & Gallery (2118 Atwood Ave.) Rain or shine.
5:30 to 7ish pm.

On Friday, June 23, The Sparks Band rides again at Sprecher’s, in the outer limits of Middleton (Wisconsin, duh!) Doin’ it on the deck from dusk 'til dark. Eat, drink, and rock-n-roll next to Middleton’s last cornfield. (Inside if it rains.)

Wednesday, June 27 the Birddog Blues Band sets up in the City Park Pavilion in downtown Janesville. Bring your lawn chairs for this city-sponsored set. Early evening.
