The Dire Straits Legacy played the finale of the Rockin’ The Downs concert series for 2022. “See you in 2023” emcee Jim McGee stated bringing this years series to a close. It was a fairly decent year for the series as they set an attendance record for 38 Special and brought in some decent talent. Hopefully next season will bring us some more great times with great artists. Continue reading

The tour which features Def Leppard, Motley Crue, Poison and Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, was a few years in the making. The tour was first announced in 2019 but was pushed back in 2020 and 2021 due to the pandemic.
