About What’s Going On - Songs From the Vietnam War Era
About the Performers
This is a must-see Fabulous Armadillos production!!
The revolutionary music of the 60’s and early 70’s served as a touchstone-to-home for the American troops of the Vietnam War. Everything from Rock, Pop, Blues, Soul, Psychedelic & Country became an escape from the high-tension, daily life of a soldier.
Join the FABULOUS ARMADILLOS and special guests as they present the contributions of Jimi Hendrix, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Santana, Janis Joplin, The Animals, Bob Dylan, Crosby Stills Nash & Young and many more who reflected this highly politicized era with their music.
"What’s Going On" is a moving concert experience that incorporates live music, live narration and video to provide the audience a multi-media deep dive into the 60’s and early 70’s and of course, the Vietnam War. Through song and imagery this concert examines the tumultuous time period but concludes on a note of hope and inspiration for a better tomorrow. As one Vietnam veteran narrates during the show, “When we think of our divisions today, they pale in comparison to how badly we were divided back then."
