Love and music are in the air this Valentines Day weekend! As always, there is so much to see and do in the Peoria… and we’ve got some warmer temps forecast too! Get out there and enjoy all of it!
At the end of January I was able to catch up with Damned Torpedos at Kenny’s Westside and Blue Stew at Sunset Lanes. Both were bands I’d been trying to make my schedule line up with for quite awhile!
Damned Torpedoes opened the Courtyard Concert Season at Pour Bros several times, but I was always at a Memorial Day music festival and missed them every time. It was great to finally see them.
I especially loved seeing the grandkids supporting Blue Stew. It’s never too early to get kids involved in music and taking them out to see a family member rocking one of our local venues is a great place to start!
