It’s time to start planning your weekend getaways for this summer and July 4th will be here before you know it. If you’re eager to get back into the social saddle, the best place to catch up with friends, try new foods, and catch some live music is at the return of Rockford’s Long Play Music Fest. The festival is a four-day experience situated to make the height of the summer season a weekend to remember. Here are 15 reasons to attend the Long Play Music Fest this summer:
