How cool is that?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Okay, don&#8217;t know how I ended up doing a whole dialogue thing there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway, with our good friends at our flagship station KUTX, on Thursday, March 18, from 3 to 7 pm, we&#8217;re presenting <strong>Rock the Shores<\/strong> at Auditorium Shores (Fun Fun Fun Fest RIP). Evoking the spirit of our <strong>Rock the Park<\/strong> series, we&#8217;ve got a whole afternoon\/early evening of family friendly fun, starting with family acts and transitioning to more grown-up (but still kid-friendly!) stuff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s continuing our string of themed shows, with this year being ska-themed. That&#8217;s right, every act will do at least one song from the long ska tradition. Performing: Lucky Diaz, Mega Ran, Smith &amp; Yarn, SaulPaul, Jonny Langford &amp; the Silver Sands Roustabouts, Rosie Flores, and Thao! That&#8217;s a wildly great show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/sparetherock.com\/wordpress\/Rock The Shores.jpg\" width=\"466\" height=\"465\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>And then on Saturday, March 18, we&#8217;re partnering with our friends at Captain Quackenbush&#8217;s to present <strong>Rock It To Outer Space<\/strong>, featuring Red Yarn, Stacy Gray, Strawbitty Tops, and Andy Sprouts!
