07/03/2006: "Timebenders Return For The 4th"
The popular show band Timebenders of Victoria B.C. will be the featured band at this year's 4th of July Rock the Dock street dance in Friday Harbor, WA. The Gurus of Retro Rock, this 8-piece ensemble delivers fast-paced, zany antics fueled by straight up rock n'roll energy.
The Timebenders have repeatedly performed in Las Vegas and for many fortune 500 companies, conventions and private affairs, such as Bill Gates Millennium New Years' Eve party. Two 75 minute power show sets take you through the 50's, 60's, 70's, and 80's respectively, highlighting the decade's big stars and memorable dance classics.
Admission is $10.00 for ages twelve and over. Children eleven and under enter at no cost when accompanied by a parent. Rock the Dock presale tickets will be available for purchase at Market Place Foods from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM on July 3. Admission will be limited to 850.
An easy walk from the ferry dock, Rock the Dock is held annually at the Friday Harbor Marina on a site that provides a perfect view of the Friday Harbor fireworks show.
Food, beer, wine and a variety of non-alcoholic beverages are available in the venue. The gates open at 6:00 with the music starting at 6:30. The show ends as the fireworks begin.
Rock the Dock is sponsored by Rotary of the San Juan Islands. Food concessions sponsored by the San Juan Island Lions Club. Any profits support San Juan Island service projects.
