Sunday concert CANCELED!!
TOWER OF POWER - they were headliners with TOO $HORT at Stern Grove but this Sunday's show was forced to cancel its final concert and annual fundraiser The Big Picnic due to massive flooding and "catastrophic damage." I have performed as season host for eight years and feel for all who worked so hard on a stellar season and this final show.
This from the Chairman Mathew Goldman:
"We are devastated that our final concert of a terrific season has been forced to cancel. For those of you familiar with our Big Picnic you recognize that it is our only major fundraiser of the season.
Given the destructive flooding of the Rhoda Goldman Concert Meadow and the backstage area, it will take months of effort to repair and resurrect.
In spite of the hand we've been dealt, we very much look forward with great anticipation to Father's Day 2022, when we will launch our 85th season of the Stern Grove Festival!"

READ: LETTERS TO 87
Out Now
This book moved me greatly. Letters to 87 is a coffee table book featuring heartfelt letters from fans of San Francisco 49ers hero Dwight Clark, and essays by Edward J. DeBartolo Jr., Ronnie Lott, Joe Montana, Brian Murphy, and Kelly Clark. Letters to 87 also offers rare photos from Michael Zagaris, Brad Mangin, and John Storey. 100% of the book royalties will be donated to the Golden Heart Fund. The much-beloved Clark succumbed to ALS In June 2018. You can celebrate him by purchasing the book or by attending the "Building a Champion" event at Concord Pavilion on Tuesday August 31. Head to the site for more.
