Acoustic Jam Night
Rehoboth Beach DE - For a blast from the past, don’t miss the Rehoboth Beach Museum’s re-
creation of Acoustic Jam Night, the locally famous open stage held at The Front Page Restaurant &
Bar from 1984 through 1993. This year’s event will be Wednesday, July 24, 7 to 9:30 p.m., at the
Rehoboth Beach Museum.
“The Front Page was a kind of melting pot of live music in its era. It fostered a lot of different kinds
of music and gave local musicians a chance to express themselves in front of an always-supportive
audience,” said Terry Plowman former owner of The Front Page.
The duo who helped launch the event in 1984, Rim and Kathy Vining, will travel from Virginia to
join the fun. Rim’s brother, Stuart Vining, and his singing partner, Amy Felker, will also be on
hand.
Over the 10 years of Acoustic Jam Night at the Front Page, hundreds of amateur and professional
musicians performed for an enthusiastic crowd every Tuesday in the summer and every Saturday in
the off-season.
Original players from the Front Page era will perform, including Ken Thompson, Walt Hetfield,
Bill Robertson, Steve Wilson, Mike Long, and Terry Plowman. Other performers will include Kent
Schoch, Bill Richardson, Roz Matz, and others.
The cost to attend the fundraiser is $25 (plus fees) and must be paid prior to the event. Tickets are
available online at Acoustic Jam Registration, email programs@rbmuseum.org or call (302) 227-
7310.
The museum is located at 511 Rehoboth Ave. next to the visitor center. Parking is available and the
museum is handicapped-accessible.
The Rehoboth Beach Historical Society and Museum is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization. The
Society’s mission is to preserve and showcase artifacts that illustrated the development of the
community.
