Eugene Events for August
Oregon Festival of American Music
 The Music of America In Hard Times, 1929-45
Oregon Festival of American Music 2008 revolves around the theme "The Music of America in Hard Times, 1929-45" and proposes that the great songs of "the Greatest Generation" were both a reflection and an inspiration to that generation's indomitable spirit. Travel with Ken and company through a broad swath of the wonderful music of that 15-odd years from New York's Cotton Club in the late 1920s and early '30s to the swinging 1940s sounds of the USO and Stage Door Canteen shows during World War II.
July 23-August 9
