Tiki Stage Sponsored by 99.7 Jack FM, Earth Tones and Sound Design (Located by Stuart Heritage)

6:00 PM until 8:30 PM	The Kregs How do you make a Kreg? Take 5 handsome and youthful (OK, rugged, but aging) wandering minstrels whose previous musical lives brushed with (but didn't quite adhere to) greatness ... blend in the coincidence of Tuesday nights free for jam sessions, simmer over a 3000 sq. ft. wood shop, replete with sound system and stage lighting, and bring the meandering jam that ensues to a critical peak ... sprinkle in some of Ron Hart's original tunes, flowing lead work on Allman Brother instrumentals, Phish-like melodies, and an eclectic mix of country, bluegrass, and blues, and the result is a presentation steaming with raw emotion and energy, leaving you wanting more ...
9:00 PM until Midnight	Fresh Catch Rock reggae! Shaking South Florida with their version of the reggae/punk/hip-hop sound popularized by bands like Sublime and 311, they are eager to expand their horizons. Energetic live performances and catchy hooks make Fresh Catch a local favorite of the Treasure Coast of Florida. The music seems to be most appreciated by beach bums, surfers, skater punks, drinkers and girls that like to dance but it's an open party and if you can hang, you're invited. Their independently produced debut CD “Foul Hooked” has been selling steadily at surf shops, at performances and online at CDBaby.com and iTunes. Sophomore CD “So Far…” will drop sometime towards the end of 2009.

World Stage Sponsored by 101.3 Coast FM, 97.1 Ocean FM (Located under the Roosevelt Bridge)

American Stage Sponsored by John Pierson’s Toyota of Stuart, 93.7 the Breeze FM and Hi Mom Productions (Located by City Hall)

6:30 PM until 9:00 PM	Bobby and the Blisters The Blisters performance displays expert musicianship, unique excitement and some extreme passion. Centered on singer/pianist/song stylist Bobby Gangloff, the band bodes well to this New Orleans flavored barrel housed piano pounder. More than just a jazz band, the blisters rockin’ style of New Orleans party music always has people dancin’ in the seats, in the isles and in the streets. Saxophonist and dance master Ron McCode’s wireless microphone allows him to roam through the crowd and lead a big parade to the dance floor or in this case the ‘street’.
9:30 PM until Midnight	The Spaz Band Spaz has been singing new rock as well as classic rock favorites on the Treasure Coast for over 20 years as well as being the lead singer for Cadillac Bratz. Multi talented Spaz has also appeared in many theatrical productions including Jesus Christ Superstar and the Who’s Tommy.
