Elburn Days
‘Serving Our Community Through Vision, Literacy and Wellness’ Elburn Days draws tens of thousands of people from throughout the area during three days in mid-August. This year, Elburn Days will run from Friday through Sunday, Aug. 17-19, at Elburn Lions Park in Elburn. Every year, the organizers of the event select a theme, and the 2018 theme is “Serving Our Community Through Vision, Literacy and Wellness.” The festival features everything from truck pulls to a full-scale carnival, high-energy musical entertainment to a mud volleyball tournament, and of course so much more.
Entertainment - Main Stage features eclectic lineup The Elburn Days entertainment lineup always draws a crowd, and throughout the three-day festival, there is always something of interest for every musical taste, and this year’s event is no different. Kicking things off Hairbangers Ball on Friday, Aug. 17, at 5:30 p.m. are The Moonlight Pickers. Creating a blend of traditional and modern country music, The Moonlight Pickers keep themselves busy on the local music scene. This year, the band is also busy recording their first record, “Rescue,” set to release later this year. Headlining the Friday night of Elburn Days, ‘80’s hair rock tribute band Hairbangers Ball will take the stage at 8:30 Libido Funk Circus p.m. Formed in 2001, the glam metal band has become a fixture on the Midwest scene, playing all sorts of venues and festivals throughout the area. Saturday will open at 3 p.m. with The Glory Years. The band is a Chicago-based early-2000sera pop punk and rock cover band that performs
songs by the likes of Blink 182, Fall Out Boy, Paramore, and much more. Fool House Band will follow on Saturday at 5:30. Described as “The Ultimate 90’s Throwback Dance Party Band,” they combine party music of the 90’s with a foolish sense of humor and some dance moves that will create the ultimate party on Saturday evening. The party will continue with Saturday’s headliner, Libido Funk Circus, who will take the stage at 9:30 p.m. The dance and party band brings top dance songs from the 60’s through the 90’s, in a fun, interactive and family-friendly set. Sunday’s entertainment will kick off with The Neverly Brothers, a Chicagobased band formed in 2003. The high-energy performance will take fans back in time to when rock and roll really took shape, the 1950’s and 1960’s. The Sunday headliner, and closer of the entire festival, will take the stage at 6:30 p.m. American English, widely regarded as the best Beatles tribute band around. The band has performed on major network television, toured the world, and was even endorsed by the late Sam Leach, who was the original promoter of the Beatles, who said: “They are without doubt the world’s premier Beatles Tribute band.”
