A final summer picnic. One last day at the pool. The UofL-UK game.

These are all great ways to celebrate the long holiday weekend, but how do you want to kick it off? At the usual Friday happy hour? Dinner and a movie? Bowling?

No!

Rock it out at the Westport Village shopping center! They are hosting the final night of their Summer Concert Series this Friday, and it promises to be a big one!

The southern rock band RiverShyne will be performing in the outdoor setting from 7-10pm, and should have the crowd dancin' in the parking lot!

RiverShyne has a country influence, but their backbone is definitely cut from southern rock. They've shared stages with Tracy Lawrence and Eric Church, as well as Slaughter and Collective Soul.

While band is playing, you can enjoy a cold one at BOOMBOZZ Taphouse or Indigo Joe's Sportspub, or shop at one of the dozens of shops in the center.These Friday night events make for a great festival atmosphere, and a perfect way to start Labor Day Weekend.

RiverShyne plays from 7-10pm.

The Westport Village is at Herr Lane and Westport Rd, about two blocks from the new 264 Westport off-ramp.
