We’ll start off the night with an open mic. Step up on stage and perform.

Then we’ll transition into live band karaoke – Frank Muffin, a rockin’ band from Lafayette IN, will have about 75 well-known songs ready. All you need to do is sign up, step up, sing the lyrics off a teleprompter and live out your rock ‘n’ roll dreams.

We are planning a three-band bill: Frank Muffin (alt rock), Half Catholic (power pop) and the Lone Canary (Americana).

Come rock out with Rockin’ the Suburbs!!
