Leg. Lindsay Introduces 'Big Shot'

Billy Joel tribute band rocks the crowd at Holbrook Country Club.

The Holbrook Chamber of Commerce and Suffolk County Legislator William J. Lindsay co-sponsored the free performance of "Big Shot," a Billy Joel tribute band on July 17.

The free outdoor concert was held at the Holbrook Country Club, with more than 1,000 people in attendance, according to Presiding Officer Lindsay's office.

“It has been my pleasure to work together with the Holbrook Chamber to bring a national act like Big Shot to our community,” Lindsay stated in a release. “We couldn’t ask for a better night with great music, amazing friends and perfect weather.”

The event not only provides top-notch entertainment for residents, but it benefits the Holbrook Beautification Committee, which works to enhance the cleanliness and visual aesthetics of Holbrook. 

“Thanks to County Legislator Bill Lindsay and his dedicated staff, the chamber was able to co-host another amazing free concert for the Holbrook community,” Holbrook Chamber of Commerce President Rick Ammirati stated. “Although the day started out very hot, the evening cooled off and we had a beautiful evening with singing and dancing among family and friends. A special thank you to Big Shot and the sound crew for a performance that was above and beyond what was promised.”

Also helping out in the effort was the Holbrook Fire Department, the Islip Town Parks Department, the Suffolk County Fire Rescue Emergency Services Department and the Suffolk County Police.
