Bad Decisions
Bad Decisions isn't just another cover band; they are curators of a musical time machine, seamlessly blending hits from the 70s, 80s, to the newest chart-toppers. From the anthems of classic rock icons to the iconic guitar riffs of the 80s hair metal era, and onto the contemporary hits dominating today's charts, Bad Decisions pays homage to the rich tapestry of rock history while injecting their unique, edgy flair.
Division Street
Division Street will cover your favorite radio rock hits from the 80s, 90s, and 2000s. Enjoy songs from Foo Fighters, Jimmy Eat World, Weezer, 3 Doors Down, and Green Day, and replay the awesome memories you had listening to these bands. Division Street pumps up the energy even more by remixing pop hits from the last decades (Britany Spears, Backstreet Boys, Smash Mouth, No Doubt), and adds a rock element. To round out the mix tape that is the show you will hear crowd favorites from Journey, Johnny Cash, Bryan Adams, and The Beatles.”-
This year we will be reintroducing $1.00 wine samples.
A vendor list will be added at a later date.
