Crowds swarmed downtown Danville on Thursday night for the first of two 2009 Hot Summer Nights car shows.
The July show draws mainly local folks, while the second one, Aug. 20, brings a larger crowd of people who are in the area for the Good Guys car event at the Pleasanton Fairgrounds.
Danville’s Hot Summer Nights combine muscle cars, hot rods and vintage rides while live bands play music from the 1950s and ’60s. There are also food, drink and souvenir booths and, of course, all the restaurants and shops in the downtown to enjoy.
