Music On The Half Shell Roseburg Oregon

This is an annual event in Roseburg and it is called Music On The Halfshell. It is a weekly event through July and August with a weeks break during the local fair. They attract some big names, Lyle Lovett has played there.
It is completely free and it is a great evening although I have never been to one. It is a great family affair. In the afternoon or the day before people bring their blankets and lay them down to mark their spot for the concert. They then return the next day and find their blanket undisturbed exactly where they left them. They bring little picnics and refreshments and enjoy the concert. There are also several vendors and face painters and the like to be enjoyed.
There are no dogs allowed but I wander through the vendors with Dudley before the concert begins to chat to some of the people and the vendors. Everyone is always in a festive and chatty mood and the whole affair is one of local charm and community. It is really remarkable.
When I go to this event or pass it by I am always reminded of Civic Week in Crumlin many years ago. Civic week only happened once in Crumlin as far as I can remember but it was wonderful. There was bunting and music and food and everyone was in the street. I still don't know what prompted Civic Week and why it wasn't continued. I can only imagine that it it was for the Queen's coronation but that seems doubtful. Anyone have any info on this or does anyone remember it?
