Congratulations to Linc and the Drifters for winning Battle of the Bands! Wait, there’s more… Because they’re a country band, we figured they were a better fit for the River Days Friday night lineup with Stone Cold Cowboys and R
Congratulations to Linc and the Drifters for winning Battle of the Bands! Wait, there’s more… Because they’re a country band, we figured they were a better fit for the River Days Friday night lineup with Stone Cold Cowboys and Roseland. They agreed… So…then we awarded the Saturday night spot to Probable Cause, opening for Paralandra and Hinder. A big thank you to all the bands that played: Thomas Drive, Probable Cause, Inside the Bullet, Linc and the Drifters, and See Alice.
