Aug3	FROM PSYCHOTIC REACTION TO WATERMELON SMASHIN’ 8/3/2010 9:00:00 AM by pvcManager
Santa Cruz County Fair Entertainment Director Read Zaro announced the main stage lineup for the 2010 Fair. Zaro explained “After a lot of work it all came together. On opening night we travel back to 1966 and ‘The Count Five’ an iconic South Bay group with a top ten hit that defined an era, ‘Psychotic Reaction.’ Saturday night we’re covering the stage and presenting that watermelon smashing social commentary cracking comedian ‘Gallagher.’ Bring protection!” The remaining four nights are equally entertaining. Wednesday remains country night with Idol finalist “Bucky Covington,” Thursday evening journey with “Antsy McClain & The Trailer Park Troubadours” and Old School Friday Night serves up a rare treat in “Family Stone.” Think Sly and Family Stone without Sly Stone. And yes they sound exactly the same…..no actually they sound even better. Pro Wrestling Revolution was a huge hit in 2009 and it returns Sunday evening to the Amphitheater Stage. As is tradition, a ticket to the Fair is a ticket to all the shows. Fans may want to arrive early each day to enjoy a summer afternoon of fun at the Fair before staking out their space in what will be standing room only crowds. Details on the Fair and growing list of entertainers can be found on line at www.santacruzcountyfair.com The Santa Cruz County Fair celebrates the rich history of the community and people and invests heavily in bringing this heritage to area youth. The 2010 Fair will be held September 14-19 at the Fairgrounds located on Highway 152 just east of Watsonville. This year’s theme is “Apple Pies and Family Ties.”
