August 1st 2-11pm
Johnsburg Community Club
This was the first installment of what is going to be my most favorite Couch visit yet. This is the pre-game for Craig Wallace's, 'Walla-Pa-Looza - Raisin Cash for Cancer' concert! I met Craig and his right hand man Mike Betts today at the Johnsburg Community Club. I have known Mike for a while, but this was my first time meeting Craig. We all clicked right away. Craig told me the story of Walla-Pa-Looza and how it started as a small bash in his backyard. The idea grew and the word spread so he had to move the event to the Community Club. Craig walked me around the grounds and pointed out where everything was going to be come concert day....WOW, will it be an event!
For a $5 donation, you get into the grounds to see crafters, listen to 4 bands, let the kids bounce and get tattooed, eat and drink.....and the best part...help a charity. This is going to be the coolest charity event to hit the Mchenry County area. Don't miss it!
Here is a secret heads up for all you DougsCouch.com fans, the couch will be front row at the concert. For a small donation, you will be able to cross the rope and SIT on the couch and enjoy a few songs! All procedes go to the American Cancer Society.
The bands that will be there are Blush, Peter and the Versatiles, Danny and the Devils, and Always Frantic.
$5 gets you in and the event runs 2-11pm on August 1st.
