The Building of the Cumberland County Civic Center

Posted on 19:01 by blogger
Here's a Flash presentation on The Building of the Cumberland County Civic Center.

A caption mentions that ZZ Top was the first headlining band to play the Civic Center. True, but their opening act was a local band called The Blend. You can learn more about the band and listen to some of their music at this tribute site for founding member Jim "JD" Drown, or check out videos of their 1982 farewell concert on YouTube.
