Tuesday, 01 April 2008

Another resort is gearing down for what has been a spectacular season and The Canyons is going out with a bang! Part of their closing festivals are free concerts and events, part of which are partly over, but three free concerts still remain.
On Wednesday, April 3 Slightly Stoopid will be packing the outdoor arena starting at 5 pm.  Influenced from all genres and touring the country relentlessly, a great show to see anytime, but for free it’s a must see.
Thursday, April 4 is 80’s day all day.  Dress up or down depending on your age for the classic, ‘best neon’ on the mountain contest.  To fulfill the 80’s theme the Metal Gods will be pumping fists in the air at 3 pm and head banging you back to the classic rock days.
Finally, Saturday, April 5 Rusted Root will close out Spring Gruv 08 along with the big terrain park for the season.  These sessioned showmen will bring a great performance from over 15 years of touring experience.
