The Great Midwest Rib Fest
at Mystic Lake
mysticlake.com
The Great Midwest Rib Fest is returning to Mystic Lake for its 10th Anniversary, kicking off Thursday, July 25, and ending on
Saturday, July 27. The event is free to the public.
Lineup:
John Michael Montgomery • Headliner
Hannah Dasher • Opener
FRIDAY, JULY 26
War • Headliner
Average White Band • Opener
SATURDAY, JULY 27
Five For Fighting • Headliner
Letters To Cleo • Opener
Since most of you work on the weekdays, I suggest Saturday’s show, featuring Grammy® nominated, platinum-selling artist Five for Fighting (aka John Ondrasik). The full band features drummer Randy Cooke (Mick Jagger, Ringo Starr, Dave Stewart), bassist Sean Hurley (John Mayer, Ringo Starr, Alanis Morissette), and guitarist Peter Thorn (Chris Cornell, Melissa Etheridge, Don Henley).
Also worth checking out is Letters to Cleo. You might remember their massive 90s hit “Here and Now”. Fun fact, Letters to Cleo’s singer Kay Hanley actually dubbed Rachael Leigh Cook’s singing vocals for the film Josie and the Pussycats.

MonoNeon
at Fine Line
first-avenue.com
GRAMMY Award-Winning bassist and experimental musician MonoNeon is touring in support of his album Quilted Stereo (Court Square Recordings).
The new single, “Segreghetto” was recently released, and MonoNeon explains, “The term ‘Segreghetto’ encapsulates the intersection.. them crossroads of segregation and ghettoization… perseverance in this human experience. ‘Segreghetto’ is a thang where it’s a testament to the enduring spirit of yourself in your community and culture. Like offering a voice to those that are overlooked or misunderstood… carving out your own path even in the midst of systemic inequalities. When me and my friend Davy were writing the song ‘Segreghetto,’ I felt like this junt could be inspiration to anyone willing to defy the odds and chase their dreams, wanting that gold medal.. no matter the obstacles that lie in their path and journey.”
