September 19th, 4-8 pm in Downtown!
(Greensboro, Ga. --- August 27, 2015) The word is out:  Blind Driver from Greene County will be performing at this year’s Rock ‘n Roll Cruise-In, September 19th , 4-8 pm! It’s time to party in historic downtown Greensboro!
            Blind Driver, an energetic, experienced group of musicians whose charisma and enthusiasm packs the dance floor while keeping their audience groovin’ to the beat, will delight attendees this year!  Strong vocals added to the driving rhythm of the percussion and brass give the band a full sound and allows them to play a wide range of memorable tunes from beach, soul, Motown and of course the favorites from the 50’s, 60’s, & 70’s.  So, dust off your dancing shoes, practice your “cool moves” and plan to dance the night away under the stars in downtown Greensboro!

The evening is perfect for a family outing or a gathering of friends.  Bring your lawn chairs and quilts or enjoy the bales of hay set out for your convenience.  Food galore is available at our local restaurants.  For your shopping pleasure, downtown businesses are open and offering specials for the evening.
