Some pretty legendary names are set to play the patio at Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs this summer. U2. The Rolling Stones. Queen …
OK, not exactly, but the Party on the Patio series will at least include reasonable facsimiles of those big names, offering a line-up of some of the best tribute bands out there.
The series begins at 7:30 p.m. Sunday with locally renowned party band UUU. Fireworks will follow at 9:30 p.m.
Draw the Line, the only endorsed Aerosmith tribute band, will take the stage the first Thursday in June.
