Hmm… this sounds interesting.
I’m always up for a free conert and food and drinks.

I must know, what time does it end approximately?
(Even though I love to party, I still have to work the next day.) lol

#3

The band comes on at 7:30, usually plays a 1.5-2 hour set. The party continues all night!!

For those not familiar with the Stearns Square Concert Series, (‘google’ it for the list of bands) is a series of free shows in Springfield every Thursday night from July through 1st week of Sept. It has evolved into “Bike Night” with literally hundreds of motorcycles invading the downtown entertainment district of Spfld.

(Note: the show is free, the food and beverages you pay for.)

Naturally I assumed that. lol

Looks like maybe August 31’st may be a possible date for me to go up there as well.

What a fun looking concert series (and you can’t beat the price!). Eric and I will be in Old Lyme Connecticut for a couple of weeks in August, so who knows, maybe we’ll make the “Big Brother and the Holding Co.” show, after all, it’s only about 67 miles away!

Buy me a plane ticket. And I’ll make the party crazy. :slight_smile:

#7

Old Lyme?? Home of 236?? IN DA CUTTT??? :ahh:

Come visit 237 while you’re at it. It’s closer than the concert. LOL (only an hour and a half or so)

#8

Why stop at 237? Keep on coming up Rt 91 and visit–1740, 1699,1524,999,809,571,558,521,230,195,181,178,176,175,155 then into MA and stop in and see 839, 173, 1027 and 96 at the show.

And NEMO!

Hope some more of you can make it next week. We have a good time. PM Dana or I so we know who’s coming and we can arrange a place to meet.

#10

and 177 and 571

The Connecticut River Valley is the best place to find robotics team in close proximity.

#11

So…who’s coming? I am planning on getting to the show early (5:30ish) to commandeer good ground space for seating. I’d like to know approx how many spots to save??

#12

The big guy and I will be there and we’ll try and make it early, also.

Don’t forget to bring folding chairs and food/beverages or plan on purchasing there.

“In the Year 2525” - wow, what was that, like 1968-69 when it was released? Does anyone even remember that? :rolleyes:

#13

…the twinkling of starlight
so very far away… :slight_smile:

#14

I remember when rock was young, me and Susie had so much fun…

Someone else on CD remembers it 'cause it made his i-pod list… http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?p=509699#post509699

I sure wish I was a few hours closer, it sounds like a good time!

#15

“In the year 2525” Was released on 28JUN69 & hit #1 on the Billboard charts on 12JUL69. Written and performed by Danny Zager & Richard Evans.

#16

My apologies for not looking it up to confirm…relying on (foggy) memory for something so long ago. :frowning:

#17

We had an awesome time at the concert - for those who couldn’t make it, try and see them if you can. The musicians are great!

#18

Big Brother and the Holding Company this week. For those of you younger than 40, they are Janis Joplin’s band. I know, who is Janis Joplin? :rolleyes:
