Connecticut is home to a number of landmark music venues that have
featured local and national performers. While some of the locations have
closed, they have certainly not been forgotten. The New Haven Coliseum,
the Arena and the Bushnell Memorial were once the places to be for music
lovers, while elsewhere places like the Cheri Shack and the Shaboo
hosted local bands and national headliners. Other venues such as
Foxwoods, Mohegan Sun, The Meadows and Toad's Place have now taken
center stage and continue to attract large crowds. With in-depth
interviews with performers and many timeless photos, author Tony Renzoni
takes you on a nostalgic and fun tour of the Nutmeg State's most beloved
music sites.
