San Ramon Performing Arts Series presents the Marshall Tucker Band
Sunday, January 29 at 7 p.m.
Dougherty Valley Performing Arts Center
The Marshall Tucker Band came together as a young, hungry, and quite driven six-piece outfit in 1972, and they’ve been in tune with tearing it up on live stages both big and small all across the globe ever since. A typically rich MTB set list is bubbling over with a healthy dose of hits like the heartfelt singalong Heard It in a Love Song, the insistent pleading of Can’t You See, the testifying Fire on the Mountain, the wanderlust gallop of Long Hard Ride, and the explosive testimony of Ramblin’, to name a few.

Apply Today for a Real ID
Beginning in May 2025, a REAL ID will be required to board domestic flights and visit secure federal facilities such as military bases or courthouses. A California-issued REAL ID driver’s license or identification card meets these new requirements, and is marked with a gold bear and star.
Applying for a REAL ID requires proof of identity, California residency, and a trip to a DMV office. Provide Social Security number on REAL ID application (exceptions may apply).
Wait times are expected to increase as the deadline approaches, so California residents are encouraged to apply now to avoid lines, and upgrade to the REAL ID at no extra cost.
To view a full list of acceptable documents and start your application online, click here—then complete the final step in person at a DMV office.
