Lou Gramm headlines the Saturday bill of this year’s Rock, Ribs and Ridges Festival.
The sixth annual Rock, Ribs and Ridges Festival takes place at the Sussex County Fairgrounds in Augusta this weekend. But if you’re planning to spend just one day there, and you aren’t equally interested in classic-rock and country-rock, keep in mind that the former will dominate on Saturday, while the latter will be the focus on Sunday.
The festival’s other attractions include camping, and ribs and other BBQ food from a variety of pitmasters (whose companies tend to have colorful names, such as Three Men and a Baby Back, and Butch’s Smack Your Lips BBQ).
