Barrineau Park’s Musical Fourth
July 9, 2008
The Aubie Fillingim Auditorium was rocking to the music of Chapel Strings and Rolling Tide Friday night. After a day of celebrating our independence, folks came out to the Barrineau Park Community Center for an evening of entertainment.
They were not disappointed as Chapel strings kicked off the show with “The Star Spangled Banner”, followed up with Emily Frank singing “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down”, “Uncle Bill” Fillingim playing “Last Date” on the keyboard, and Al Frank with his rendition of “Five Pound Possum”.
Then, Rolling Tide came on stage with George Brewer playing “Folsom Prison Blues” and “Down Yonder” on the electric guitar. The audience responded with whoops, whistles and clapping to show their appreciation.
Music Night in Barrineau Park is held on the first Friday night of each month at the Barrineau Park Community Center. It is a family atmosphere with free admission.
