All About The NEXT SAND BAR Concert -

At the SANDBAR in, Saint Petersburg, FL 33702

Community: St Petersburg

Description

Spring is just around the corner and we are already working on the line-up and details for the NEXT SANDBAR CONCERT!

Event Details

Yes . . . SUNDAY, May 27th, 2018 . . . this will be the 13th Annual Memorial Weekend FREE Floating Sandbar Concert. Ken Keller will take the point on this one, with Terri and I handling the press releases, advertising, and sponsorship duties. Brad Bess donated the pontoon boat used last year, and we are refining it to be an even better floating stage than it was during the last Memorial Sunday Concert!

PLEASE NOTE: We are in need of about a 50 to 60 horsepower 2-cycle outboard motor for the Band Barge III, as the motor on it is not serviceable. If anyone has one, or knows where we can get one, please contact me at (727) 361-5000 or E-Mail me at HalHammerJr@aol.com and I will check it out.

TALENT: This year's line-up of musical talent should be a real crowd pleaser! Ken Keller and his band "RedHawk" will be hosting the event. Ken has asked me to handle announcer duties and also to do a short, show set of some of my original tunes, as recorded LIVE at one of the concerts. We are working on completing the talent roster with some very special appearances that have not yet been fully finalized. As soon as we confirm, we will notify everyone of the guest artists that will perform.

LIVE MUSIC: We are scheduling the concert to start about noon, and last until about 5:00 or 5:30, weather and tides permitting. We have never been rained out, in the entire history of this event. We have been rained on . . . . But never enough to be rained out!

TRANSPORT: As always, you can only attend the event by boat, canoe, kayak, or maybe a paddle board or other significant floating conveyance. There is NO ACCESS through Weedon Island Preserve and we are NOT affiliated, in any way, with the Preserve. We ask that you please observe their rules and do not place an undue burden on the park officers.

CONCESSIONS: None - Although there appeared to be the start of some concessions last year, we have NOT made any provisions for any food or drink to be offered at the event. You must bring with you, whatever you wish to have during the event. We strongly suggest bringing plenty of water to stay hydrated.
