LOWDOWN: The show didn't go on

The summer concerts at Anson B. Nixon Park go on rain or shine, but when a thunderstorm erupted 15 minutes into the Lowdown Brass Band's performance on July 17, the organizers called off the show. The decision was a no-brainer: lightning strikes were visible, the trees were swaying and two big branches came down.
We retreated to a pavilion, keeping our fingers crossed that the storm would blow through and the band would resume … up until the point that we saw them breaking down their equipment and loading it into their van.
We were really enjoying the band, but on the plus side, the storm did cool things off nicely.
