Music at the State Fair this Weekend
A trip to the State Fair is always a little better when a live music performance is thrown into the mix. After seeing the livestock, the bird shows, eating corn dogs and other fried delights you will regret later, cruising through the Midway, and riding the new SkyWay gondola ride, settle down to a musical treat.
Tonight, as I mentioned in an earlier post, Grupo Fantasma plays at 8 p.m. on the Chevrolet Main Stage. Their mixture of rhythms will keep your feet tapping. Maybe just break out and dance. Or watch the dancers who are a little better at it. Should be interesting.
Saturday, Boyz II Men perform their harmonizing R&B. They are releasing a Motown tribute record in November, so there are sure to be some Motown classics in the show. It would be a good break in the afternoon at the fair. Grab a corny dog and beverage, find a place to seat, and listen to some good harmony.
If you are going to the fair Sunday, end the day with Bowling for Soup as they return to town for the fair. After all, they are from Denton. An irreverent show to be sure, but their onstage antics are sure to entertain. They have come a long way from being a garage band around town.
Enjoy the State Fair this weekend. All three shows are at the Chevrolet Main Stage.
Have a good day and Peace be with you.

Happiness is not in the mere possession of money; it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort.
