Music in the Park 2001 will kick off on Thursday, June 21 with Abby Someone, a local roots rock band with a strong local and regional following. They are currently signed with we3 Records. 1pm to at least 10pm. Organizer Barb Evenson said she was inspired by Minneapolis' FringeFest, Lollapalooza, Lilith Fair and Woodstock old and new. Sometimes people say 'Wacko' like it's a bad thing, but most of my favorite people have a hard time passing as normal.
True individuality is something to celebrate.
We hope to expand this festival to celebrate wackos of many different kinds. Bonefish Other planned events involve jousting, gigantic bubbles, Frisbees, beach balls, unusual foods, and other fun stuff. On Thursday, June 28, the Black Hills Jazz and Dixieland Band will take the stage. Some members of this band have been playing swing jazz since it began back in the 30s. They are definitely a band that Black Hills music fans should see, Reardon said.
