Identity Crisis
Sun, Sep 6th @ 3:00 pm – 6:00 pm
Fins up, Bettendorf! It’s time to head to the islands without leaving the 52722. On Sunday, September 6, join us for our 3rd Annual Buffet Blast, a full-day celebration of the life, music, and “latitude” of the legendary Jimmy Buffett.
Kicking off the festivities is the Quad Cities’ own Identity Crisis. Formed by a group of local music teachers, this band is renowned for their “horn-heavy” classic rock sound and incredible musical versatility. For the Buffet Blast, they’ll be leaning into those tropical vibrations, bringing their signature horn section and high-energy rhythm to the greatest hits of the Coral Reefer canon. Identity Crisis provides the perfect soundtrack to get the party started and the harbor lights glowing.
Buffet Blast Highlights
- The Lineup: Identity Crisis is the first of two incredible bands performing today. Stay tuned as we transform the Wood into a tropical oasis!
- Admission: Free! This is an all-ages celebration for Parrotheads of every generation.
- Seating: It’s one of our biggest events of the year! Bring your lawn chairs and floral shirts early to claim your spot in the sand (or on the grass).
- Food & Drink: We’ll have the blenders running and the grill fired up. Enjoy special tropical cocktails, craft brews, and a menu inspired by the Key West lifestyle.
- Holiday Policy: To keep the party going and the music free, please remember: no outside food or beverages are permitted on the property.
Whether you’re a lifelong Parrothead or just looking for a “Change in Latitudes,” this is the Labor Day weekend party you’ve been waiting for. We’ll see you in the Wood!
