ALL AGES
BILL SUBJECT TO CHANGE
3 stages
Each day of HOMEGROWN III will begin with a 2 hr. long round robin style performance that will include 8 bands.
What’s a round robin??
Well that would be when a bunch of bands set up all at once.
We set up a few pas, and the bands take turns playing songs one after another. Then after all the bands have played a song, the loop repeats, until the performance ends.
