This is it! The Grand Finale of the 21st Annual Summer Concert Series in the Amphitheater at Farnsworth Park. 568 E. Mt. Curve Ave. Altadena, CA 91001.

The show starts at 7:00 PM. Hope to see you all there!

Lead singer Dean Colley has been performing in rock bands since 1982, after leaving the University of Southern California, where he was studying biology. 15 years of playing in bars and regional fairs followed playing rock and roll covers with other local musicians. All the while, people began taking notice of Dean’s ever more prominent resemblance to Neil Diamond. Soon, audience members were asking Dean if he did any Neil Diamond songs.

A short time later, a local businessman asked Dean if he’d like to put together a tribute to Neil Diamond. Dean accepted the challenge and began studying the songs of the legendary singer/songwriter. After a trial version of Dean as Neil Diamond in a small club, he was offered a chance to perform for a community concert put on by a local Kiwanis club. From there, the show became known as “Hot August Night”, after the title of Neil Diamond’s live album recorded at the Greek Theater.

Many versions of the band followed. Players came and went. However, a chance audition for a tribute show for military personnel in Japan introduced him to a whole new level of players. These musicians were seasoned professionals and put a whole new spin on Dean’s presentation. After arriving home after the tour of Japan, Dean convinced the band to play in Hot August Night. This led to working with better musicians and an outstanding presentation.

Today, Hot August Night has played casinos, corporate parties, fairs, and clubs all over the United States, Japan, Canada, and England.

Hot August Night has played major showrooms in Reno NV, Laughlin, NV, Las Vegas NV, Carson City NV, Minden NV, Tucson, Phoenix, Yuma, AZ, Lincoln OR, Seattle WA, Atsugi Japan, Iwakuni Japan, Oxford England,Bettendorf IA, Edmonton Canada,Stone Mountain GA,Toulumne, San Diego, Hollywood, Anaheim, Hollywood, Beverly Hills CA,and Palm Springs CA.

September is California Pedestrian Safety Month

Wednesday September 6, 2017, 9:51 AM LASD - Los Angeles County Sheriffs Dept Information Bureau (SIB)

Advisory: September is California Pedestrian Safety Month Remember! Pedestrians Don’t Have Armor The California Office of Traffic Safety is again announcing that September is “California Pedestrian Safety Month” which began last year in response to the rising number of pedestrians being killed and injured on California roadways. Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department will be joining with other law enforcement agencies, city and state transportation agencies, pedestrian advocates and walking clubs to promote public awareness aimed at both drivers and pedestrians alike to always be aware of each other and share the road responsibly.   This month draws attention to the 892 pedestrians who were killed on California roadways in 2016 alone, accounting for over 24 percent of all roadway deaths in the state, up from 17 percent just a decade ago. In 2016, Los Angeles County Sheriff’s deputies investigated 35 pedestrian fatal collisions and another 69 major injury collisions. Most injuries are life changing and permanent.  Deputies will join the effort by conducting pedestrian safety enforcement operations throughout the month. The department has mapped out locations over the past several years where pedestrian collisions have occurred along with the violations that led to those collisions. Traffic Officers working overtime and others on routine patrol will be focusing enforcement both on drivers as well as pedestrian who violate traffic laws. Both drivers and walkers are cautioned to put down the cell phones, since electronic distractions are seen in increasing numbers of pedestrian crashes.  Other factors for drivers include unsafe speed and failure to see and yield to pedestrians in crosswalks and intersections.  For pedestrians, the major dangers are jaywalking and thinking that they can be seen at night, especially while wearing dark clothing. To learn about the dangers of being a pedestrian, who is at risk and safety tips visit Pedestrian Safety.    The California Office of Traffic Safety continues to remind motorist that “Pedestrians Don’t Have Armor.”  This public service announcement highlights the importance of pedestrian safety awareness, regardless of whether one is on foot or behind the wheel.   Funding for this enforcement campaign is provided to Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
