\"Jerry's<\/a>We had two days of the best summer weather for Surf Rodeo.\u00a0 There was so much to see and do with Pato Baton doing a superb performance at sunset on Sunday to wrap it all up.\u00a0 Congratulations JD Drury on another successful Surf Rodeo!<\/p>\n

Hi-Hat Entertainment\u2019s Jerry McWorter\u2019s 50th Birthday Bash was a blast at Yolies July 18.\u00a0 It was so cool to see so many top-notch artists in the room and up on the stage performing.\u00a0 When we swung by it was Jerry on drums, Brent Harding on bass, Jimmy Calire on keyboards and Albert Lee on guitar.\u00a0 Legendary!<\/p>\n

It was great seeing so many ArtWalk 2014 venues supplementing this city-wide art event with live music this year!\u00a0 Bell Arts Factory, the WAV, Mission Park, Stoneworks Studios and many more featured such artists as Jonathan McEuen, Mitchell Blake, The Deer Leg Band, Rey Fresco, and SoulVang.<\/p>\n

The fair kicks off July 30 with the ever popular fair parade on Main Street on Saturday, August 2.\u00a0 Ventura Rocks will be hitching a ride on the Squashed Grapes float with some of our favorite jazz performers playing the parade route:\u00a0 Fausto Cuevas, Jacob Scesney, Trey O\u2019Toole, Andrew Hill, RJ Root and perhaps a surprise or two.\u00a0 Speaking of music and the Ventura County Fair, their entertainment lineup is amongst the best of recent history with the Beach Boys, Little Big Town, The Spinners, Barenaked Ladies, Deep Purple, Seether, Jake Owen and Creedence Clearwater Revisited.\u00a0 All shows are included in the price of admission.<\/p>\n

The Music Under the Stars series continues with Spencer the Gardener taking over Olivas Adobe on Saturday, July 26.\u00a0 Joining his beloved cast of characters, um, I mean musicians, will be former members Cougar Estrada and Nate Birkey who will kick it up just a notch or two.\u00a0 The following week will be a Carlos Santana tribute band.\u00a0 Call (805) 658-4726 for ticket information.<\/p>\n

Bombay Bar and Grill has nailed down the date for their 30th annual Indoor\/Outdoor Beach Party; and though Diego wasn\u2019t quite ready to share their music line-up, you\u2019ll want to mark down the dates which cover the last three days of the month, August 29 \u2013 August 31. This is sure to be off-the-hook!!<\/p>\n

Chiodos, along with Bless the Fall, will take over the Ventura Theater on Friday, August 1.\u00a0 They\u2019ve been out on tour in support of their new CD, \u201cDevil\u201d which was produced by David Botrill (Tool, Muse, Stone Sour).<\/p>\n

And finally, just added to the VenturaRocks.com Listening Station at Very Ventura store on California Street are Ashford Gordon, the new one from Mother of Dissension, and \u201cStruggle Makes You Stronger\u201d from Shawn Jones.\u00a0\u00a0 You have no idea what it means to our local musicians when someone purchases their music.\u00a0 It really does make a difference.<\/p>\n
