Sammamish Announces Summer Concert Lineup

Music in the series will include a Fleetwood Mac tribute band, Indie blues rock, reggae, and more.

The tradition of summer concerts at Pine Lake Park will continue this year when “The Spyrographs” take the stage on Thursday, July 12, at 6:30 p.m. The free concerts will continue until Aug. 30, making Pine Lake Park the place to be for eight straight summer Thursdays.

This concert series is now in its twelfth year, making it one of the longest and most enjoyable traditions in the city’s short history (Sammamish incorporated in 1999). Plateau Jewelers, a longtime sponsor of the musical event, is once again providing invaluable support. Food will be provided by The Sammamish Rotary and The Sammamish Kiwanis. Here’s the band schedule:

  • July 12 - The Spyrographs (60s pop)
  • July 19 - Second Hand Newz (Fleetwood Mac tribute)
  • July 26 - Craig Terrill Band (Former Seahawk plays classic rock)
  • August 2 - Stacey Jones Band (Indie blues rock)
  • August 9 - Adrian Xavier Band (Reggae world music)
  • August 16 - Cloverdayle (modern country)
  • August 23 - Sammamish Symphony Orchestra (American classics)
  • August 30 - Cherry Cherry (Neil Diamond tribute)

All shows begin at 6:30 p.m. and last until about 8 p.m. Overflow parking for the free concerts is available at the Pine Lake Park & Ride (located at the intersection of 228th Ave. S.E. and Issaquah-Pine Lake Road). A free shuttle is provided.

We too, love having our Farmers' Market return! Opening day was a bit weather-challenged. ThankRead More you merchants for enduring the wet and cold for our new extended hours! What a wonderful sight will return to the plaza when the sunshine calls back all the families with happy, giggling children. Market day is a date of dinner out (side) & shopping (vegetables, fruits and now HedgeHog Toffee) with my husband. Doesn't get much better than that! SEE YOUR THERE! Susan Gerend

Agreed Mark, Much as this solution seems crazy, some things are worth paying for (law and order, aRead More decent safety net, good schools and yes roads). I do blame the tax hawks though. Washington already has a relatively regressive tax structure. The "choke the government" solution seems carried way too far.

I thank the author for his well thought out arguments regarding these important transportationRead More issues in Washington state. While I believe some of the ideas presented are debatable, for example I believe that a vital and well used transit system ought to be part of our congestion relief plan in metropolitan areas, the lack of realistic funding options for this system cannot be ignored. However, our legislature (both parties included) seems to place a higher priority on "no new taxes" than creating a sustainable future for the state in many areas, including the transportation system. More than that, though, we live in a state whose citizens have varied interests and priorities. Most of all, we need our government to set priorities so that citizen interests and needs can be reasonably served. It seems we are pretending that we can base tax policies and tax rates exclusively on individual self-interest, as is often the consequence "no new taxes" scheme (e.g. if I don't get a direct benefit for myself, I won't support paying for it). This seems to me to be as much a part of this problem as current transportation system priorities.

It gets worse folks. I was part of a selected focus group a few weeks ago of people who live alongRead More I-405 conducted by a well-known marketing research firm and paid for by WSDOT. They are considering options that would charge commuters to use a new lane on I-405 & charge for the existing carpool lane too (even if you have two people in the car!)
