Hometown heroes The Rosebuds were given a warm welcome as droves of fans turned out for the band's headlining set at The Rosebuds and Friends day party outside the Lincoln Theatre. Some people even took to the windows of the parking deck to get a better view.

The band sounded incredible as the ripped through a set of songs mostly from their latest album Loud Planes Fly Low and their acclaimed 2005 album Birds Make Good Neighbors. The crowd joined in for a massive singalong on "Nice Fox," with Ivan telling them that he wanted people to hear them all the way at Cook Out.

They closed the set with the blistering song "Woods" and then bid the crowd farewell. It was a triumph for the band who sounded solid as a rock after touring the new songs for a few months.
