The City of Campbell's Summer Concert Series is in full swing and this week's performers are the crowd favorites, the Cocktail Monkeys, returning again by popular demand. It's easy to see why they're so popular. They put on quite a show and nail pop performances from a range of eras. Here's a short medley of some songs they covered in their appearance last year.

Shows are on Thursdays at 6pm throughout the summer at the Orchard City Green (in front of the Ainsley House in Downtown Campbell).

If you haven't heard, the Michelin Guide recommended, Liquid Bread Gastropub, closed its doors on Sunday, June 25th after a last hurrah to celebrate five great years and thank their staff for all the work they put into making it five glorious years of beer inspired cuisine in Downtown Campbell. The head chef, John Burke, will be moving on and making guest stints at various restaurants around the Bay Area.

The restaurant will close, but only for a short period before it gets a reboot under the same ownership. Stay tuned as to just what the next act to follow in the footsteps of Liquid Bread Gastropub and that amazing Bearnaise Burger.

Bitter sweet! Last Bearnaise Burgers on the grill and @caballoanejo last day! #bittersweet #thanksforeverythingsteve #liquidbread #downtowncampbell #dipsomania

Boogie 2017 Weekend Entertainment Schedule

Calling all artists! We're looking to bring back the "community canvas" activity to our monthly Second Saturday Artwalks, but we'll need an artistically minded person to setup, provide guidance to kids from 2 to 6pm, and then clean up at the end of the event.

There's compensation for this. It's perfect for a budding artist as a fun little summer side gig. If you're interested, please email Kelly Young Crowley at [email protected].
