once again, there’s nothing to do
What a busy weekend coming up! The Outback Pro-AM started yesterday and goes through Sunday (win free tickets!). St. Pete’s Festival of Speed begins on Friday. Tony Bennett is in concert at Ruth Eckerd on Friday night. The Hyde Park Art Fest is Saturday and Sunday. The 59th annual Fiesta Day street festival is on Saturday in Ybor City, and Parrotheads will be partying with Jimmy Buffett at the Ford Amphitheatre on Saturday night. But the best is saved for last.
Normally, I would encourage you to support your local bands. But this time, your local band is supporting YOU. Sunday from 5 until ???, the JGLB will be celebrating their 20th anniversary at Skipper’s Smokehouse. As a thank you to all of the JGLB fans and friends over the years, Johnny hisownself has deemed that there will be no cover charge. That’s right, a gig at Skippers with no cover! The typical JGLB lineup will be there along with several special guests showing up like ghosts from the past. Remember, the doors open at 4:00, and the band starts at 5:00, so don’t be afraid to bring members of the younger generation so they too can get hooked on great Tampa style rock and roll. Long-time fans will also get to partake in some complimentary hors d’oeuvres (probly chicken wings). It is certain to be a fantastic time, so even if you have never seen the JGLB live, you will want to be at Skippers on Sunday. PS: Newbies that generously tip the band will be considered “long time fans” and be entered into a drawing for a free chicken wing.
