Summer Guide MELISSA ETHERIDGE Name a better trio than sun, fair food and live entertainment. The Lane County Fair will certainly bring two of those this year. Fairgoers can expect classic fair foods — barbecue, elephant ears and ice cream — as well as thrill rides and the always-adorable pig races. The 2018 Lane County Fair Concert Series will end each night with entertainment of yesteryear. Night Ranger wrote “(You Can Still) Rock in America” as a reminder that we could still rock during the 1980s. The jury is still out whether we can rock in Trump’s America. Funnyman Bill Engvall, the guy who likes to give people their sign, will bring his well- loved jokes to the stage. The series also includes Melissa Etheridge, High Valley and Trace Adkins.
