Last week, we lost a valued member of our music family. Joe Mango was a staple of the northeast music community for decades. He was a sound engineer, taper, promoter, philanthropist, and the definition of a gentleman. He made fast friends with every band and artist he ever worked with. Joe Mango will be missed and never forgotten. Our thoughts are with his family and all those that knew him. 💔🥭
There’s literally nothing like this feeling! 📸: @rohbehrs #musicislife #jrad #thecap
It was 50 years ago today... On August 8, 1970, Janis Joplin’s “Mercedes Benz” was written at Vahsen's, a bar in Port Chester, minutes from The Capitol Theatre. Joplin and her songwriting pal Bob Neuwirth, accompanied by actors Geraldine Page and Rip Torn, stopped for drinks before her Cap performance. Janis remembered a few words from a Michael McClure song, "Come on, God, and buy me a Mercedes Benz,” and after a few more drinks, she came up with the verses for “Mercedes Benz.” The words were written down on bar napkins with a ballpoint pen. That night, Janis declared that she would sing the new song. She introduced the song by saying, ”I'm going to do it Acapulco,” which was her funny way of saying “a cappella.” We are so grateful to celebrate the 50th anniversary of this moment in rock history. Janis was the Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll, and one of most extraordinary voices in history. She was a true musical trailblazer and her spirit is forever linked to our venue. Today we will sing, we will shout, we will cry up to the heavens, ‘Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz?”

Hey, man! Were you in this crowd? Today in 1973, over 600,000 descended upon Watkins Glen for Summer Jam featuring Allman Brothers Band, The Band, and the Grateful Dead.
Another legend gone too soon. 💔 Steve Levine aka Big Steve loved The Cap. As one of eight members of the “Loge Boys,” he only missed one Phil & Friends show (Mets World Series). He never missed a Bobby, Furthur, Elvis Costello, or JRAD show (and the list goes on and on). He even saw the Dead back in 1971 with Pig Pen. His large stature matched his big smile and even bigger heart. His Cap fam will miss him greatly. Four Winds, Big Steve.
