Woodstock Lafayette - Rock the Plaza Concert Series

Woodstock Lafayette - Rock the Plaza Concert Series

50 years? Really? Yes, Really! Are you old enough to remember Woodstock? Three days of fun and music and nothing but fun and music! In Watkins Glen, New York organizers are preparing for the anniversary festival. Most of the acts like Jay-Z, Chance the Rapper, Miley Cyrus, Portugal the Man and the Killers will bring a new vibe to celebrate the golden anniversary of the “granddaddy” festival of all time. There will still be some familiar faces, like Santana and what is left of the Grateful Dead.

 

While this plays out, Woodstock is also alive and well in Lafayette, California.

 

Woodstock Lafayette is a free, four-concert series held on Friday evenings in June in a beautiful park in Downtown Lafayette, just 20 minutes east of San Francisco and an easy 5-minute walk from Lafayette BART.

 

Woodstock Lafayette will feature music from that special time when free spirit, peace, love and compassion became the principles young people embraced and music was at the heart of the movement. The lineup includes some of the Bay Area’s best cover bands that feature the music of Creedence Clearwater Revival, Santana, Jimi Hendrix and the many artists that played at the original Woodstock event:

 

June 7: Fog City Swampers

June 14: ZEBOP!

June 21: Purple Haze

June 28: The Keep On Truckin’ Band

 

When organizers struggled to get bands to sign on for the original festival, they made a breakthrough when they got an agreement from Creedence Clearwater Revival (CCR). They were paid $10,000. So, our first show on June 7th, will feature the Fog City Swampers, doing CCR covers. On June14th, ZEBOP! brings us the sounds of Santana. Yes, they will do Soul Sacrifice. Bring your percussion instruments for the “Woodstock Drum Circle!" On June 21st, just move over and let Jimi take over with Purple Haze! We finish the series with The Keep On Truckin’ Band, who will feature songs from many of the artists that played Woodstock.

 

This event is FREE!  Learn more here >>

  

When:
Friday, June 7, 2019 6:00 PM thru 08:30 PM
Where:
Lafayette's Plaza Park, Corner of Moraga Road & Mt. Diablo Blvd.

“We are very impressed with your Chamber. We have been members of other Chambers over the years and it’s been nothing like the experiences we’re having right out of the gate with your organization. Thank you for your great communication, follow up, and professionalism.”
– Peter Dewey, Bayview Painting

“I couldn’t have asked for a better resource than the Chamber, as I was establishing my medical practice in Lafayette. AJ, Holly, and Sara were so responsive to my questions and gave me many ideas on networking in the community. They host several events that foster community building. I honestly cannot imagine a more robust, active, and friendly chamber as this. I’m a member for life!”
– Cheruba Prabakar, Lamorinda Gynecology & Surgery

“WE LOVE THE CHAMBER! Batch and Brine has been a member of the Lafayette Chamber of Commerce for almost six years. We value and appreciate the incredible amount of work this organization produces for our community through many events and support for each business. The networking and education of information that’s spilled out weekly for the business community is impressive. They are a helping hand in so many ways for our business community and beyond. We couldn’t be part of this community without being part of the chamber. Lafayette Chamber is one of the best organizations we’ve worked with, so don’t think twice about it, join the Chamber!” – Rolla Ghaben, Batch & Brine

“The Chamber was instrumental in helping us open 14 years ago. The staff went out of their way to help us make connections and ensure we were successful. We would not be where we are today without the Chamber!”
– John & Colleen McCormick, Lamorinda Music
