Utah Arts Festival: Battle of the bands
Published on Jun 21, 2012 05:18PM
You're never too old to rock, or too young, as the dueling teen groups performing on the Utah Arts Festival's Park Stage proved Thursday.
It's sort of a tradition for the festival, to feature teen rock-music groups on the first day.
This year, three such groups played back-to-back-to-back, rocking out the classics.
First up was the Paul Green School of Rock, who finished off an energetic set with The B-52's hit "Love Shack."
Then came Wasatch Music Academy, playing an array of classic-rock. (I heard a Boston song while I was otherwise occupied.)
Third and finally, MusicGarage.org's band kicked it up with everything from The White Stripes' "Seven Nation Army" to a gnarly mash-up of Survivor's "Eye of the Tiger" and Pink Floyd's "Another Brick in the Wall."
