GREENUP, Ky. -- Toak, one of the tri-state area’s premier musical groups of the 70s, will bring their brand of classic rock and blues to the Greenbo Lake State Resort Park Amphitheatre on Saturday, May 28.

 

The group’s last performance at the park in August 2009 attracted the largest one-day event crowd in the history of the venue. Band members consist of Dave Waddell, Dewey Frye and Tom and Tony Williams.

 

The concert begins at 8 p.m. with the opening act yet to be determined. Admission is $8 per person.  Bring your lawn chairs and blankets for an evening of classic rock music.
