Finally, it\u2019s Fair time!!! Yippee! Deep fried foods of all kinds, here I come and I don\u2019t feel too guilty as I\u2019ll be burning off those empty calories dancing to all the great music coming our way. The fair officially opens on Wednesday August 3 (the Fair Parade will be held on Saturday morning the 6th on Main Street downtown Ventura), and will run through Sunday, August 14. Their full entertainment schedule can be found at the fair\u2019s official website (VenturaCountyFair.org). I\u2019m looking forward to Styx, Old Dominion, the return of Joan Jett, and of course one of my favorite bands, Third Eye Blind!<\/p>\n

Music Under the Stars continues Saturday nights throughout the summer at the historic Olivas Adobe with Cuban Classica music from Orquesta Charangoa on August 6 and one of the best Beatles tribute bands around, Britain\u2019s Finest on August 13.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s an interesting tidbit, Paul Black (of LA Guns fame) will be returning to Margarita Villa on Saturday, August 13. Black had actually reached out to the venue asking for a slot to play and they were happy to oblige.<\/p>\n

I looked over Squashed Grapes\u2019 August calendar for jazz music and trust me, there\u2019s going to be plenty of cool jazz for your hot summer nights culminating with the return of Doug Webb featuring Danny Carey of TOOL on Saturday, August 27. Carey missed the last engagement due to touring conflicts. Other highlights to watch for include the return of Bobby West with Adam Clark on August 3, Anne Hall & the Remarkables on the 7th, the Fair Parade band August 6 (always a good time), Rachel Flowers on the 13th, Colin Bailey on the 25th and D.on Darox and the Melody Joy Bakers on the 26th. Full line up can be found at SquashedGrapes.com\/events.<\/p>\n

The final installment of Ventura Rocks on CAPS Media has been released. Don\u2019t miss The NaVaNaX airing now on CAPS but it\u2019s also available 24\/7 on Ventura Rocks\u2019 YouTube channel. The guys did a spectacular job. Many thanks to the crew at CAPS for the opportunity and for their support of Ventura\u2019s music scene.<\/p>\n

And finally, I caught up with lead singer\/musician Eric Rachmany of Rebelution who assured me the band will return to Ventura, but on their current tour you’ll have to catch them at the Santa Barbara Bowl on August 13. Eric told me, “Ventura is just as much home for us as Santa Barbara. Back in the day us and Iration had the opportunity to open for Yellowman at the Ventura Theatre. We have some great memories in Ventura. We will be back!” You can read the full interview on VenturaRocks.com, and you\u2019ll most likely want to pick up their latest release, \u201cFalling Into Place.\u201d<\/p>\n
