OREGON – Once again the First Friday, Aug. 3, will see the musicians of the year-round First Fridays Music Show in a special appearance in the Lions Pavilion at the Ogle County Fair.
First Fridays musicians sign-up begins at 6 p.m. and the Fair Association can’t be held responsible if the musicians can’t wait until the 7 p.m. starting time. A jam session might break out.
Musicians from a 100 -mile radius are expected and long-distance travelers do appear. The 2017 Long Distance Award is from Ireland and the all-time record goes to Australia.
In addition to First Fridays, on Thursday night at the Lions Pavilion Aireloom Music will present Mary Ley, Chris Kolling, and Larry Ubben in a special show. On Saturday night Ukulele Station America’s John Lindhorst and the always popular Rock River Strummers will wrap up the Lions Pavilion shows.
First Fridays will follow their all-acoustic tradition with the Ogle County Fair’s professional audio services provided by 3-D Sound Company.
The Ogle County Fairgrounds is located west of Oregon just off IL Rte. 64 on Lime Kiln Road. Bring a friend and enjoy some great music.
