Turlock, CA (May 13, 2022) – “Wake Up!  Wake Up!” The Fun is Back! At the Stanislaus County Fair!

The Stanislaus County Fair Welcomes Grammy Award R&B Hip Hop Artist Bone Thugs -N- Harmony Thursday, July 14, 2022, at the Xfinity Mobile Concert Series on the Coors Light Stage at 8:30 p.m.  The concert will be hosted by KWIN 97.7, 98.3 and is free with the price of Fair admission.

 

            “If you heard the song “Tha Crossroads” you couldn’t help but feel the vibes and sing along to catchy lyrics! said Jose Piña, spokesperson for the Stanislaus County Fair. We are looking forward to having Bone Thugs -N- Harmony with us this year a true R&B Hip Hop Original.

 

In 1991 a group of 4 young street hardened boys by the name of B.O.N.E. Enterpri$e used their musical talents to obtain one way bus tickets to make their way out from the rough city of Cleveland, Ohio. They headed out to Los Angeles and were determined to perform for the top record labels at the time. They constantly called in to prove themselves. Their efforts paid off when they rapped over the phone to legendary N.W.A. member, Eazy E, who owned Ruthless Records. They displayed their melodic rapid-fire lyrics with group harmony.

Eazy E who was having a show in their hometown sent the group back on the bus to sign contracts under a new name, Bone Thugs -n- Harmony. While the group name changed the boys kept their aliases Krayzie Bone, Layzie Bone, Bizzy Bone, and Wish Bone

Eazy put them on a fast track to display their talents to the world. In 1994 the boys cranked out their debut EP “Creepin On Ah Come Up” with hit singles “Thuggish Ruggish Bone” and “Foe Tha Luv of $” which featured their mentor, Eazy E and Layzie’s brother Flesh-n-Bone. The group’s style brought a breath of fresh air to hip hop at the time that the album went double platinum in a few months. It didn’t take long for them to release their second album E.1999 Eternal which told more stories of their lives in Cleveland. Shortly before the release of the album, Eazy E passed away.

Without their mentor around to see their careers through to the highest points that he could have propelled them to, the boys took it upon themselves to put a new spin on their song Crossroads and add a tribute to Eazy E. What came out was their greatest single “Tha Crossroads” which has sold millions around the globe and even won them a Grammy. Since then, the group released a few more albums under Ruthless Records; double album Art of War in 1997, BTNHResurrection in 2000, Thug World Order in 2002, and Thug Stories in 2006. In 2007, they signed with Interscope Records and worked with Swiss Beats to create Strength & Loyalty. In 2010 with much fan input through ”Think Tanks” the group released Uni5: The World’s Enemy.

Throughout the years and between albums they have released multiple solo projects. They have also released albums under Mo Thugs which featured artists from their city. These days the Bone Boys can still be seen and heard on various social media platforms, engaging with fans by continuing to tell stories with their fast melodic rap style and straight discussions. Eazy E passing away did not stop the group from still selling millions around the world, but little did they know that they would be fast tracked to legendary status and affecting the whole music industry into following their style.

Turlock, CA (May 13, 2022) – “Hey now you’re a rockstar get the show on” and get to Stanislaus County Fair, where The Fun is Back!

The Stanislaus County Fair Welcomes American Multi-Platinum Rock Band

Smash Mouth! Saturday, July 09, 2022, at the Xfinity Mobile Concert Series on the Coors Light Variety Free Stage at 8:30 p.m.  The concert will be hosted by I Heart Radio and is free with the price of Fair admission.

 

            “You can’t help but dance and sing along to “I’m a believer” such a great memorable song!” said Jose Piña, spokesperson for the Stanislaus County Fair. The Fun is definitely Back! with this amazing American Rock band!

 

2022 is upon us. Another fresh new reset of the month odometer!

But this particular New Year is especially exciting and significant for Grammy-nominated, multi-platinum legends Smash Mouth…as it neatly coincides with a fresh new beginning for the San Jose rock/pop icons.

 

This year welcomes a shockingly improved and utterly re-energized Smash Mouth with the proud introduction of their hugely-talented new front man Zach Goode.

 

The New York City-born, Los Angeles-based Goode boasts a dazzlingly impressive, never-ending list of stage credits as both actor and singer. His beautifully rough-and-tumble…yet pitch-perfect and rangy…vocal style instantly proving a perfect match for Smash Mouth’s beachy brand of high energy Alt-pop.

 

A look back at Smash Mouth’s formative years shows a band determined to make an impact from the get-go. Formed in late 1994, the band immediately begins recording demos and showcasing in both San Jose and Hollywood. In June of 1997, Smash Mouth is signed to Interscope Records when label brass catch wind of an unknown (and unsigned) band being ADDED to monumentally influential L.A. radio station KROQ’s playlist after only one spin of their song “Walkin’ On The Sun”.

 

Smash mouth’s major-label debut “Fush Yu Mang” goes more than DOUBLE PLATINUM and sets the table for what most consider their masterpiece; 1999’s brilliant follow-up album “Astrolounge”. Boasting three top-ten hits (All-Star…Then The Morning Comes…Can’t Get Enough Of You Baby), sales for “Astrolounge” nearly double those for “Fush Yu Mang”. Approaching nearly QUADRUPLE PLATINUM status.

 

Several catch phrases come to mind with Smash Mouth at the dawn of 2022. Onward and upward! Bigger and better! New and vastly improved!

 

But here’s the reality: Smash Mouth is now poised to consistently deliver the best live show you’ll see in 2022.

 

And here’s why: Ammunition. Smash Mouth has the best songs. And more of them than any of our friendly competitors. Period.

 

And in new recruit Zach Goode, Smash Mouth has landed the perfect commanding/veteran front man who will return them to the top of the mountain. And keep them there.

 

So, buckle your seatbelt and brace yourself for Smash Mouth in 2022.

 

It’s guaranteed to be a thrilling and fulfilling top-billing super-thing.

 

You’ll see…

…and hear.

TURLOCK PENTECOST BLOODLESS BULL FIGHTS

STANISLAUS COUNTY FAIR PRESENTS:

TURLOCK PENTECOST BLOODLESS BULL FIGHTS

Sunday, July 10, 2022

 

            Turlock, CA (May 11, 2022) – “Taking the bull by the horns has a new meaning!”  These Portuguese-style bullfighting tradition has taken root in California’s Central Valley.

We are excited to announce Turlock Pentecost Association Bloodless Bullfights!  Sunday, July 10, 2022 in the FoodMaxx Arena at 6:30 pm.

“We try to make each Fair better than the year before, having new exhibits and entertainment achieves that,” said Jose Piña, spokesperson for the Stanislaus County Fair.

This style of bullfighting differs from the Portuguese-style in the fact that the bull isn’t hurt or killed. The same promise to not hurt the animal is not given to those who choose to step into the arena and test their courage against the bull. The forcados are the bullfighters. In Portuguese tradition, they taunt the animal in hopes that it will charge them. They follow the cavaleiros who battle the bull from horseback into the arena. The bullfights have been created to always be bloodless.

The cavaleiros use a velcro-tipped banderilla and a short spear-shaped tool, which attaches to a velcro pad on the bull’s back. After the cavaleiros finish what they call their “dance with the bull,” the forcados enter the arena. They challenge the bull directly, aiming to grab the bull by the horns without any protection or defense. The Forcados (bullfighters) this year are Tiago Carreiras, Joao Soller-Garcia, and Antonio Nuncio these brave men will enter the arena and face the bull head on.  We will have a traditional Bloodless bull fight along with traditional bands like Filarmonica Portuguesa de Tulare.

Turlock Pentecost is proud to continue with the traditions of our Portuguese heritage of celebrating our faith and devotion to the Holy Spirit for over 108 years. Through your generous support we can extend a helping hand to those in need. We thank you for generosity through the years.  We are able to help contribute to College Scholarships, take Underprivilege children shopping, provide support to the “Turlock Together”, Burial services for needy families, Cancer Awareness, ALS Patients, Local FFA Chapters, Valley Children Hospital, and The Sacred Heart Parish.

We would like to take this opportunity to give thanks and appreciation to the Officers, Directors, Donors, Family and Friends, who have given guidance, support and encouragement. We have been humbled and blessed to be a part of Turlock Pentecost Association. The memories and friends we have made will be forever in our hearts. – Tony “Doogie” Machado e Bertina Leonardo.
