California Cowboys

Arena Theater presents one night only a "Rootin' Tootin' Sadie Hawkins Dance" with Country Music band California Cowboys
and in true *Sadie Hawkins tradition, the girls are encouraged to ask a boy out to the dance!
* Character in Al Capp's classic hillbilly comic strip, Li'l Abner (19341978)
Bandleader R. W. Smith and his California Cowboys deliver a powerful sound, with the clear punch of tight three-part harmonies while performing such rowdy, foot stompin' original songs as "We Ride' em We Rope' em" and "Double Shot of Hank". R.W. is the polished showman: he dances and jokes with the audience while delivering top billing entertainment. Together with drummer Hal Atkinson (CCMA's Drummer of the year, 1994), guitar player Gary Potterton
(producer of "Grandma got run over by a Reindeer"), bass player Cary Atkinson and legendary Steel Guitarist Bobby Black, these fine musicians form one of California's most successful country-western bands. With a solid draw and non-stop show, the Cowboys will fill the dance floor with a cheering audience.

The Cowboys have appeared on concert billings with such country favorites as Alabama, The Judds, Dwight Yoakam, Merle Haggard, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, The Bellamy Brothers, Pam Tillis, Travis Tritt, Doug Stone, Alan Jackson, George Strait, and many other country stars. They have appeared frequently at many of Nevada's top casinos, including Harvey's South Lake Tahoe, Reno's Flamingo Hilton & John Asquaga's Nugget. No strangers to large crowds, the Cowboys have performed at the Oakland Coliseum, the Cow Palace, the Shoreline Amphitheater, the Concord Pavilion and the Gilroy Garlic Festival.
The Arena Theater bar and snack stand will be open.
