Decemberists tix on sale + updated 2007 Central Park SUMMERSTAGE schedule
"On July 21, 1853, the New York State Legislature approved a bill designating a piece of land in the middle of Manhattan for a great public park: the nation's first major public park." [a history of Central Park]

Tickets are on sale for the (Bowery Presents) July 16th Decemberists/Grizzly Bear show at Central Park Summerstage. For a Summerstage show, $30 is not that bad.
I've been slacking on keeping the NYC summer concert list totally up to date - some of it is even split on to a different page. I'm fixing that problem now. In the meantime, the most updated Central Park Summerstage list I could come up with is below (lots of new ones)....

I'm guessing the Neko Case show won't be free.

I heard a rumor claiming developers are planning to build a condo where Summerstage now stands.
if it is true just what do you plan on doing about it BV?

The Duhks are a kick ass Canadian group that plays a fusion of everything from traditional fiddle and banjo tunes from North America with Afro-Cuban rhythms, to Tracy Chapman, to Led Zepplin. They have an amazing lead singer and all of them are super accomplished on their instruments. They are NOT to be missed!
