The Concert on the Square this Saturday, May 16th will feature local band Roxie Watson. Roxie Watson plays a mix of Americana and Bluegrass. You can hear a sample of their music on www.myspace.com/roxiewatson.
The band is comprised of members Beth Wheeler on mandolin, Lenny Lasater on bass and vocals, Linda Boller on guitar and vocals, Sonia Bolley on banjo and vocals, and Becky Shaw on a variety of instruments and vocals. The band plays at various venues around town including Eddie’s Attic in Decatur.
Be sure to come to the Concert early this week for the Rain Barrel Auction at 6:30 pm. The rain barrels were painted by children at Clairemont Elementary School and were scheduled to be auctioned at the Decatur Green Fest. Ironically, the auction was rained out! Mayor Floyd will be the auctioneer and will be joined by “The Rain Barrel Man” (yes, he wears a rain barrel)!
The DeKalb Rape Crisis Center will hold their annual Jewelry Sale on the Community Bandstand next Monday, May 18 from 9 am until 3 pm. Donations are collected throughout the year and offered for sale from $1 to $3. This is great opportunity to not only pick up some gently used jewelry, handbags and more, but to support a great organization.
This week’s Concert on the Square, Saturday May 9, features Baatin & Top Secret. Baatin has played on the square at the Decatur Arts Festival and at past Concerts on the Square. I hope you will join the Decatur Business Association and welcome Baatin as he releaeses his new cd.
