The event is set to start up again on June 11; the concerts take place from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. In addition to featuring a performance by a local band, the events feature yoga, stand up paddleboarding and cornhole.

This lineup stinks
And ZERO original bands.
Thank you jmarkert I was rather bothered by that as well and it’s not like we don’t have beach-worthy fun original bands in town.
Sure wouldn’t mind getting the secret on how to crack the code as to how smaller local bands that also have copious amounts of talent, can get on some of these stages. No offense but it seems as if there is no opportunity for these bands as long as the bands are repetitive year after year. What a great opportunity for th to be heard by such an enormous crowd. Just wondering if you would consider a band with just as much talent and a lower price. You can actually double your entertainment list by doing so.
