FREE Summer Concert Series About to Get Funky at American Tobacco
|
Things are about to get funky at the 2009 Music On The Lawn schedule. Yo Mama’s Big Fat Booty Band is the next on tap for the annual free series from American Tobacco. The funk hits the stage on Thursday, July 30th at 6pm.
No stranger to the Triangle, the seven-guy band works out of Asheville. No one can resist jumping up to dance when Yo Mama’s Big Fat Booty Band gets the horns and the groove hopping with their fun stage performances.
A crowd pleaser and one of the hottest up and coming bands, Yo Mama’s Big Fat Booty Band will have the American Tobacco hotter than the summer temperatures.

The Venue
The American Tobacco Campus is arguably one of the top venues in the Triangle for enjoying an outdoor concert in an intimate and family-friendly atmosphere. Ample parking and five fine eateries surround the lawn: Tyler’s Taproom, Café Zen, Mellow Mushroom, Starbucks, and in spring 2009, Cuban Revolution.
Outdoor seating abounds and some restaurants take their grills to the sidewalk, so food and beverages are only steps away.
Kids are welcome on the lawn where families can enjoy the Ole Bull River that runs through the middle of the campus. As a courtesy to your neighbors, no dogs or coolers please.
