Didn’t get an invite to this Friday’s Daysies awards party at the ECHO Center? Actually, I’m jealous. Because that means you’ll be free to take to the high seas with two of Burlington’s hardest-rocking outfits, Waylon Speed and Rough Francis. (While I will be gamely pretending to enjoy schmoozing at the party. I hate schmoozing.)

WS and RF will be rocking aboard the Lake Champlain Ferry this Friday, August 2, as part of the MSR Presents-presented Rock the Boat. Aside from telling you the cruise departs the King Street ferry dock at precisely 7 p.m., and that you can get tix here, I’m not really sure what else I need to say about it. It’s two awesome local bands. On a boat. If I need to explain why that’s awesome, you’re beyond my help. But what do you think, Artie Lange?
