“Good Morning America” Announces Its 2018 Summer Concert Series Lineup

Summer is almost here and that means its once again time to share the revealed performers for the Good Morning America “Summer Concert Series”. As you most likely know by now, the live music scene is something that I love and the offering up of free performances like this is quite incredible. These events begin in the coming weeks and as you will read below, start very early in the morning if you’d like to get a proper space. I’d suggest a dawn arrival and choose the most suitable gig for you as possible since you cannot use the same lateness excuse blaming the MTA so many times. Check out the concerts below and I will return at the close with additional thoughts.

The Summer Concert Series returns for the eighth year to Rumsey Playfield in Central Park, home of City Parks Foundation’s SummerStage Festival.

Piercing Ken Thoughts: I’ll be listing all of these events on our handy dandy Events Calendar for sure so if you do NOT yet have that bookmarked as a favorite on your computer or mobile device please get to that ASAP. I want you to be up to date on the latest and greatest happenings in our region. Now as you can see, these events happen very early in the morning and I can only stress that acting fast and being there in as timely a fashion is in your best interests. Sadly there don’t seem to be any performances by artists I’d want to see for the purposes of my PiercingMetal.com adventures. So what do you readers think about these offerings? Will you be entering their giveaways to see one of the artists listed? Let me know down in the comments section below. Until we meet again.
