Zogfest Honors Erik Herzog

Good Day For a Memorial

Memorial Day is soon to arrive, a day on which we all have a chance to relax and unwind. It's also a good time to remember those who are no longer with us, whether they were battling with foreign foes in far-off lands or simply battling that same struggle we all call life and soldiering on until the end.

Whether you knew him or not, you can head on down to SOhO Restaurant & Music Club (1221 State Street) to remember Goleta drummer Erik Herzog on Sunday, May 28, at 7 p.m. The celebrated percussionist who was known for his work in dozens of bands sadly passed away in November 2016 at the age of 47. The event will benefit his surviving son, Lucas Herzog, age 12, a musician who carries on his father's legacy on the drums and on the stage.
