Head over to the Old Courthouse Square in downtown Decatur this Saturday night to hear Tom Hill and the Midnight Suns perform at the Concert on the Square. Band members Tom Hill, Jojo “Bongos” Bailey and David Wallace are Decatur High School Alumni and very excited about playing for the Decatur community. The band will also feature a special performance by “The Shinettes” which include Decatur Alumni Annette Shinette (aka Stella) and Margie Hardy as well as other special guests.
The Decatur Business Association produces the Concert Series every Saturday in May and September which is sponsored by Wachovia/Wells Fargo bank. Co-sponsors for this week’s concert are Parker’s On Ponce and Dr. Lisa DiFrancesco.
Pack your picnic or stop by one of our many restaurants for dinner before or after the concert. The music begins at 7 pm and is free to the community.
Why not have the concerts in may and june..even july, it seems like a great community thing to do!
Glad you enjoy the concerts Susan. The Decatur Business Association presents these concerts in May for a number of reasons. The weather is the most important one- from past experience April tends to be a rainy month and July is very hot, as well as a big vacation month so lot’s of folks are out of town. The DBA presents their big fundraiser in June- the Decatur Beach Party, and that takes a lot of planning as well as volunteer time. In July the City presents the annual 4th of July Parade, concert and Fireworks. Hope you will be around to attend these as well.
