Greetings from ModestoView | 01-07-2020

Greetings Friends

The new year is off to the races! Feels like we are zero to 60 in 4 seconds as we launched our plans for the Graffiti USA Classic Car Museum. We are so excited to be able to bring our American Graffiti history to life with a really cool immersive experience. If you want to volunteer or donate, please email us at info@graffitiusamuseum.com Check out the plans at www.graffitiusamuseum.com

This week is loaded with great events and things you won’t want to miss. Modesto On Ice as a new owner and Kathy and Dave Halsey are a great fit. It is all skate every day and you can sign up in advance at www.modestoonice.com and fill out your paperwork. Don’t miss a really cool play at the Prospect Theatre this weekend, Lend me a Tenor and get your groove on with some cool vinyl record action at LoFi on Friday night with me spinning some fun songs. There is some really cool world music going down with the Red Tie Arts at the McHenry Museum with Boco do Rio Saturday night. You can enjoy some of the super musicians from the band Boston and more with David Victor’s Supergroup at the Gallo. Read Middagh Goodwin’s article about his work with music in the hospitals below.

If you have a Jane Austen friend in your life, then you can NOT miss JaneCon this weekend with events at the State Theatre and the Modesto Library presented by Opera Modesto. There will be a performance of Mansfield Park, costume contests and so much more. Check out www.modestojanecon.com for more info.

If you haven’t read the January ModestoView, please do so. We have a really cool listing of the main events for 2020 and great tips for dining, listening and drinking to make your Modesto experience fun.

I hope to see you out and about!
Chris Murphy

SUPERGROUP SF

By Middagh Goodwin

David Victor’s SUPERGROUP SF will be hitting the stage at the Gallo Center this Saturday and if you are in the audience you are in for a treat. When you hear “supergroup” what springs to mind. Well in the case of SUPERGROUP SF you would be correct, it’s members have played with such notables as Boston(David Victor Gutar/Vox), Y&T(Brand Lang Bass/Vox), Lynch Mob(Mike Frowein Drums/Vox) and Jet Red(Lang/Frowein). Filling out the band is Eric Barnett(Points North Guitar/Vox) and Gabrielle Ray(Keyboards). Read More
