AFROMAN W/ SPECIAL GUESTS TBA SAT. JULY 1, 2023 7PM – ALL AGES SHOW

Castle Autoplex Main Stage 1208 Green Street, McHenry, IL, United States

Comedic rapper Afroman first broke through in 2000 with his ubiquitous stoner-lifestyle anthem "Because I Got High," bringing his songs of wit, weed, and deep-fried funk to the masses. Afroman's signature song had a remarkable shelf life and was used in various films and television productions over the years. Far from a one-hit wonder, however, Afroman's discography is deep, spanning from tapes and CDs he self-released in the late '90s through to highlights like 2008's Frobama and 2016's Crazy Rap.

DAVID COOK THUR. AUG 17TH, 2023 7:45PM – ALL AGES SHOW

Castle Autoplex Main Stage 1208 Green Street, McHenry, IL, United States

David Cook (and yes, the same David Cook who launched into stardom following his American Idol Season Seven win – breaking several Billboard chart records when 14 of his songs debuted on the Hot Digital Songs chart and 11 of his songs debuted on the Hot 100) certainly knows his way around a good song. His first album, Analog Heart, came out pre-Idol, and his last album, Digital Vein, nicely book-ended that chapter of Cook's career, a chapter during which he sold more than 2 million albums (including his platinum-certified eponymous album) and, collectively, more than 5 million tracks (including two platinum-certified singles) worldwide.
