The Concerts on the Square committee will be selecting bands for the 2010 Concerts on the Square and the Blue Sky Concerts the first week of February. Bands can apply by going to the Decatur Business Association website and filling out the Concert Series Application. A CD or a website where the band’s music can be heard is required. The committee is looking for “fun”, upbeat bands for Saturday night that the crowds will enjoy dancing to. Blue Sky Concerts are a little more laid back, and a great opportunity for smaller bands and singer/song writers to have their music heard. Questions? Call 678-553-6573.

To The Concerts on the Square committee members,
Please pardon our late request, we were just informed of your opportunity to play your Summer Concert Series through a Decatur friend and would very much like to be considered.
The Commitaphobics (commit-a-phobics) are a local Atlanta cover band, having performed in the Atlanta area for the past seven (7) years. Our songs center around upbeat Pop and Rock covers from the 80’s, 80’s and Today and occassionally work in a tune from the 70s simply to wet the appetite – imagine dancing to Play That Funky Music White Boy, mixed in with Vanilla Ice’s, “Ice, Ice Baby” and/or “Rappers Delight” from the Sugar Hill gang, or singing along to favorites such as Sweet Caroline or The Joker.
Mostly however, our songs are center a mixture of recent rock bands such as (The Cure, Goo Goo Dolls) and current rock bands such as the Kings of Leon, The Killers, Franz Ferdinand, David Matthews Band and Snow Patrol.
You may hear a few live recordings of the band on our recently updated website: http://www.thecommitaphobics.com
As a variety band, we have standing local gigs at venues such as Padriacs in Vinings, Ri Ra in Midtown and other bar/clubs though always have requests to play town, subdivision, corporate and private events as well To name just a few:
