It’s Waterfront time

September 2nd, 2009 at 09:21am Anna Derocher

At church Sunday, I told an older woman that I would be at Waterfront on Saturday to see the Barenaked Ladies. She raised her eyebrows. I’m sure she was unaware I was referencing the Canadian band famous for “If I Had $1,000,000″ and “One Week.” Oh well.

The downtown Rockford festival kicks off Thursday night with Charlie Daniels. Rockford native Amanda Torp-Pedersen, who fronts the group Amanda Christine, will open for the country singer. Smash Mouth closes Waterfront on Sunday night.

In today’s newspaper, is a Waterfront guide booklet. And, of course, you can get information on our Waterfront site.

    I’d probably respond the same way, b/c I haven’t thought of Barenaked Ladies (the band) since, oh, 1993.
