Busch Gardens Tampa Bay has officially started 2013 Bands, Brews & BBQ. Every Sunday through March 3rd you can enjoy 100+ Beers to Sample, Big-Name BBQ and Live Music. I am so excited for this event and we will be attending on March 3rd when the Goo Goo Dolls will be performing live!!
The Goo Goo Dolls is one of my favorite bands from the 90's. Ironically, this will be my second time seeing them perform live at a theme park - they were the headliner at my Grad night (circa 1,000 years ago) and I cannot wait to see them again!
Check out this video to see what Band, Brew & BBQ is all about.
Here's some more info on this fabulous event from the Busch Gardens Press Release:
