Rock the Vote!

There was yet another event in Hasbrouck Park, calling on all of us New Paltzians to be active. This time the message was, specifically, to vote in local elections! There's an election in November, so keep your eyes peeled for NYPIRGers and register to vote in New Paltz. The day also included lots and lots of music.

The day began at noon with a performance by Quatrane. The poor weather resulted in a small crowd, but Quatrane rocked the gazebo, experimenting more due to a more casual setting.

Then Ed Daley and The Allstars came on the gazebo-stage. There were some additions and subtractions since their last performance at Haz Park. The group contains many Allstars.

Haden Minifie joined the band and started a sing-along with the crowd. She wailed an outstanding and enthusiastic rendition of "Lean On Me" followed by a couple of other equally group-loved tunes.

After this joyous crowd unity, The Jonny Monster Band played. They revealed music that was made to move hips.

The finale of the day was a performance by The Big Takeover (which I sadly missed... if anyone has pictures, please send them to me?)

Anyway, there will be another of these festive days filling the park with music on Saturday, October 24th.
