    [size=+1]Our third season of Broadlands Live is about to begin! We have an incredible line-up this year with something for everyone. We kick things off next week on the second Friday of the month, June 9, from 5:30-9:30. Yosi, a children’s musician, is traveling here from New Jersey to entertain us with his whimsical, imaginative and enthusiastic music for us from 5:30-6:30! At about 7, Lionize takes the stage with their fresh reggae stylings- bring your dancin’ shoes! Don’t forget to bring your appetite too. Domino’s, Treviso’s & Puccio’s will be selling fabulous dinners and Smoothie King & Hershey’s Ice Cream will be cooling us down with their yummy treats (healthy or just plain decadent!). There will be water & sodas for sale and fun novelty items for the kids. If you bring your own drinks please leave the glass bottles at home.
    We encourage everyone to support our sponsors: Capital Aviation, Van Metre, Heritage Landscape Services, Broadlands Regional Medical Center, Broadlands Orthodontics, Stream Valley Veterinary Hospital & Ashburn Rental. PLUS a big shout out to Broadlands Homeowner’s Association. We couldn’t do this without all of them!
    We hope everyone will come out June 9 for this free concert. Check our website for more info at www.broadlandslive.com or call the info line at 571-333-4FUN.
    Mark your calendars; we'll see ya there!!

    Hi Sunny,

    I just tried to email you about a possible sponsorship, but the message bounced back to me. Can you please email me via this forum when you have a chance?

    Thanks!

    wow what a SUPER event it was Friday- I'm not just saying that because I emcee'd lol. Big, LIVELY crowd, Yosi had the kids (and more than a few adults!) in the palm of his hand, the band was fantastic, and the food was great- Puccio's is going to do REALLY well in Ashburn!

    I hope to see more of you in July- it will be another fantastic show! If you intend to have alcohol, PLEASE rememer to bring your ID's even if it's been decades since you've been carded- "rules is rules" folks! :)

    thanks for bringing the kelly bell band to our neighborhood...we have been fans for the last 8 years or so.

    it was great to not have to drive to arlington to enjoy them.

    keep up the good work.

    Hey Everyone!
    Not only is my band Dr.FU playing- but we also have a special guest opening for us- ONESTOP. Ever Since Radio will not be performing tonight- and we got super lucky with Onestop- they are an awesome band that reminds me of Paul McCartney with their rich harmonies and melodic keyboards. Check out their album Pop Shop and come see them tonight from 5:30-6:30.
    By the way- please vote for Dr. FU as best DC band on WUSA9's "A list."
    We are winning; but we need your help to push us through to victory.
    http://wusa9.cityvoter.com/Details.aspx?p=6949&Cat=79&SCat=1117
    Today is the last day to vote:)

    Oh ya- come hungry! My pick for the night= Puccio's hoagie!

    Hey Everyone!
    Thanks so much for an awesome summer- and boy oh boy Friday was crazy, wasn't it? It poured- there was lightning and thunder and people WAITED under the tunnel and on the porch of the old stone house and just under their umbrellas in the middle of the lawn with their beer for the weather to pass. And it did- and Dr.FU rocked the ampitheater!!!! If anyone was there I would love to hear how your night was- I couldn't believe how many people stuck around for like over an hour and how many people came back! I had an awesome time (and an awesome hoagie, as promised- and a really good smoothie too) and I hope everyone else did.

    Wondered if there is any chance that Broadlands Live! would be moved to Saturday nights next year?

    The committee is always open to suggestions! I will bring it up at a meeting and we will bat the idea around:) Is there anyone else who has thoughts or suggestions about the shows? Are there others that would prefer a Saturday concert?
    AND...Does anyone have any pictures of their great time at Broadlands Live? Send them to me! Thanks!!!!!!!
