(PRWEB) June 19, 2004 -- The next show in the popular Green Street Music Series, number 6, comes to the Lucky Dog Music Hall in Worcester, MA on Saturday, June 26 at 8:30 PM.
The show, Green Street 1978, is a local celebration of the music of The Cars, Blondie, Elvis Costello, and Cheap Trick, and stars the Dream Police and over 30 guest singers from prominent area bands. The focus of the show is to showcase and promote local music.

This is the 6th show in the popular series that began back in January of 2003 with a show celebrating a surprise concert given by the Rolling Stones in 1981 at Sir Morgan's Cove (now the Lucky Dog Music Hall) in Worcester, MA as a warm-up show for their "Still Life World Tour" in support of the hit album "Tattoo You". The success of that first show has led to a series of similar shows all with the goal of highlighting local music.
The formula is simple: assemble a band of excellent musicians, have them learn 50 or so songs from important artists and invite local singers to perform with the band. Other artists whose songs have been used as a backdrop for the Green Street Music Series are The Beatles, The Clash, The Police, The Who, Bruce Springsteen, and Tom Petty.
Green Street 1978 is a 21+ show and tickets are $8 and available at www.ticketweb.com , all Strawberries locations, and at the Lucky Dog Music Hall. The show starts at 8:45 PM sharp and doors open at 7:45 PM. More information is available at www.luckydogmusic.com.
