The Linn County Fair kicks off in earnest this week with singers Jo Dee Messina, Phil Vassar and Grand Funk Railroad to Albany along with a relatively obscure band with a loyal fanbase that led reserved seating sales two weeks ago.
Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers will make one of only two scheduled stops in the Northwest in Albany at 8:30 p.m. Thursday at the Fair. They play Seattle the following night.
