The Newberg Community Band’s fall concert, unofficially called “Godzilla Eats Las Vegas” after one of the tunes it will perform, is on tap this weekend. Set for 2:30 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 15, in Bauman Auditorium, 1009 E. North St. on the campus of George Fox University, the lineup for the free concert includes a variety of music genres. “It is a ‘hodgepodge’ of styles from marches to serious music,” said director Dick Elliott, a veteran of more than two decades with the 55-musician band. Rehearsals for the performance began in September, Elliott said, adding that the band’s other 2026 performances were in March, during a Fourth of July celebration at Friendsview Manor and during the Old Fashioned Festival in late July. The Nov. 15 date will be the last performance of the year. “Our next performance will be after the new year as we do take some time off for family during the holiday season,” he said.
