Music took center stage May 29 at the first Final Friday event of the season when Jimmy and the Soulblazers and a small ensemble from the Canton Bluecoats Drum and Bugle Corps performed for a large crowd at the Carnation Caboose in downtown Alliance.
The two music groups are popular performers in the area, on different types of stages. Jimmy and the Soulblazers regularly appears at summertime festivals and other events, and the Bluecoats is once again holding its spring training at University of Mount Union over a month from late May through late June.
Final Fridays includes events for all ages, including food trucks, vendors and different types of performances.
Also part of the event was fun for youngsters that included inflatables and balloon animal artists, along with face-painters.
