Night Ranger – Coca-Cola Stage
Appearing on May 26 at 8 p.m., the San Francisco rock band, Night Ranger, will take attendees back to a variety of 1980s hits including fan favorite, “Sister Christian.” In 1982, Night Ranger debuted on the rock scene and began opening concerts for artists such as ZZ Top and Ozzy Osbourne. From 1982 to 1988, the band released five albums selling more than 10 million copies worldwide. Not long after, the band splintered with some pursuing solo efforts or joining other musical groups. Beginning in 1995 and culminating with the most recent album, Somewhere in California, Night Ranger has issued five studio albums. Loverboy – Coca-Cola Stage
Taking the stage after Night Ranger, Loverboy will join Food Lion Speed Street attendees at 9:45 p.m. The Canadian rock group is known best for hit singles, “Turn Me Loose” and “Working for the Weekend.” Loverboy has earned four multi-platinum albums since first signing with Columbia/CBS Records Canada in 1980.
