Guiding the blues out of the smoky caverns of Big John's and Pepper's Lounge and onto the stages of the Chicago Symphony, New York Philharmonic and beyond, Corky reaches across the globe from different sides of the musical landscape, dissolving the walls between genre and people to take us to places we have never been before.

Back to Broadway!
August 18, 2018
3:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.
Experience downtown Pittsburg in a whole new way at the 2018 Back to Broadway Celebration!
The Colonial Fox Theatre Foundation, in partnership with Pittsburg State University, the City of Pittsburg, and Westar Energy, is hosting the Back to Broadway Celebration on August 18, 2018 in conjunction with move-in day for students at the new Block22 housing at 4th and Broadway.
This celebration involves the entire community of Pittsburg in welcoming new and returning PSU students and the Block22 student residents to Downtown Pittsburg by introducing them to the entertainment, shopping, restaurant and service options that their neighborhood and the city has to offer.
At the same time, this enables the Pittsburg to display the Colonial Fox Theatre and surrounding block as they were intended in the past and for the future – for enjoying live music, having great evenings with friends, and gathering as a city to celebrate the incredible revitalization of our downtown hub.
Where will we be celebrating?
- In the Theatre – LIVE MUSIC starting at 6:30 featuring two regional favorites – The Diana Louise Quartet and Jacob Tovar & the Saddle Tramps. Tickets are only $5 for Block22 residents, their guests and other PSU students with a valid Student ID; $15 for everyone else. Because seating is limited, students may purchase their tickets now through July 31. Tickets will be sold to the general public for $15 starting August 1 at colonialfox.org or by calling 620-235-0622.
- On the Street – STREET FAIR from 3:00-5:30 for local businesses, restaurants, churches and food trucks. Introduce yourselves and your product to the students, their families, and the community. Booth spaces are $50 for businesses and restaurants, $75 for food trucks. No charge for churches. Register for booth space at www.colonialfox.org/backtobroadway
- In the Lot – BEER GARDEN - a shady tented spot next to the Colonial Fox from 3:00-9:30 for enjoying a drink before the shows or just day-drinking in the shade. A few good beers, wines, and a special cocktail will be available for purchase.
We sincerely hope you will join us to celebrate this milestone for Downtown Pittsburg.

Lindsay Lou & The Flat Bellys
April 1 2017
7:30pm
Having earned their name late night at a Michigan Bluegrass festival from a fellow picker who proclaimed, "It's good to see you Flatbellys out here pickin with us Greybeards," today Lindsay Lou and the Flatbellys keep one foot in The Great Lakes State and the soul of Motown, and one in Music City, USA: Nashville, TN. They still embody the soul of a good jam or late night pickin’ session, and also have honed in on a sound that’s entirely their own drawing from soul, blues, folk, jazz and maybe even a traces of that techno beat. When asked what he thought about LLFBs new record, lead singer and mandolinist of the highly acclaimed band Greensky Bluegrass said, “What do I love about 'Ionia'? Let's keep it simple. Everything.” |
