Every year the Jack-O-Lantern Jubilee has great musical entertainment for our patrons and this year is no exception. This year will feature FREE concert events Friday and Saturday nights. We went big last year with The Charlie Daniels Band on Friday night and then on Saturday night Robert Randolph and The Family Band rocked a crowd of 10,000 right on the street of Georgia Avenue.
This year we will be featuring Loverboy. For more than 30 years, LOVERBOY has been “Working for the Weekend” (and on weekends), delighting audiences around the world since forming in 1978, when vocalist Mike Reno was introduced to guitar hot shot Paul Dean – both veterans of several bands on the Canadian scene – at Calgary’s Refinery Night Club.
After being rejected by all the major U.S. record companies, LOVERBOY signed with Columbia Records Canada, entering the studio with producer Bruce Fairbairn and engineer Bob Rock to record their self-titled debut album, which went on to sell more than 700k records in Canada. Columbia U.S. released the album in Nov. 1980, which went on to sell more than 2 million albums in the States and four million worldwide.

Also performing for the free gala will be Diamond Rio. After assuming the name Diamond Rio, the band was signed to Arista Nashville and debuted in 1991 with the single "Meet in the Middle", which made them the first band ever to send a debut single to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts. The band charted 32 more singles between then and 2006, including four more that reached No. 1: "How Your Love Makes Me Feel" (1997), "One More Day" (2001), "Beautiful Mess" (2002), and "I Believe" (2003).

In addition, we managed to get one of Country's true musical treasures, Mark Chesnutt performing on Friday, October 26 and will be opening for Diamond Rio. Mark Chesnutts stature is easily gauged; he has 14 No. 1 hits, 23 top ten singles, four platinum albums and five gold records.
