Rock band performs in 2008’s final Port Angeles Concert on the Pier tonight

PORT ANGELES — The rock band Jane and John Doe take to the City Pier stage tonight to bring down the curtain on the 2008 Concerts on the Pier series.

The seven-member band originally was schedule Aug. 20, but the appearance was postponed to tonight because of inclement weather.

That’s not going to be the case tonight, as the National Weather Service forecasts temperatures in the 60s following a day of partly sunny weather.

Jane and John Doe will perform a diverse range of musical styles, including songs made famous by such artists as the Beatles, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Journey, Aretha Franklin and Bonnie Raitt.

Audience members often bring lawn chairs to sit on at the Concert on the Pier.

Or arrive by 5:45 p.m. for one of the limited number of chairs.

Tote a picnic basket or grab some food from a downtown store or restaurant, or concessionaire at the City Pier — or from the Wednesday Port Angeles Farmers Market on Laurel Street, between Front and First streets (next to The Toggery).

Music fans can bring non-alcoholic drinks. No beer or wine is allowed on City Pier.

There is plenty of parking in the area.

The Concerts on the Pier summer series has been sponsored by Peninsula Daily News, KeyBank, Wilder Auto Center, Coldwell Banker Uptown Realty, Port Angeles Regional Chamber of Commerce and Port Angeles Parks and Recreation Department.

The PDN also co-sponsored summer concert series in Port Townsend and Sequim. Those weekly concerts have concluded for the season.
