With hit singles like “Inside Out,” “Here’s to the Night,” “Promise,” and “Victoria,” 1990s rock band, Eve 6, will make their way to Francis Field on Saturday, May 16th for the inaugural AS IF! The 90’s Fest. The event will also feature the reunion show of Spider Monkey, a Florida-based rock band comprised of Todd Horn (vocals), Tony Gialluca (bass), Garrett Coleman (guitar), and Randy Rockalotta (drums). Additional bands playing the festival will include Salt & Pine, The Banned, Kapowski, Nerd Kill Overdrive, Bad Dog Mama, Ramona, and Chillula.
“The ‘90s was the last era where growing up was cool,” explained Jeanetta Salyer, owner of Ancient City Entertainment and the organizer of the festival. “We want to throw it back to the days before everyone was staring at their phone. I like to call it a summer kickoff that lets adults feel like kids again and kids feel like, well, just that it’s going to be an amazing day that they can look forward to at the end of the school year every year.”
AS IF! The 90’s Fest will be held on Saturday, May 16th from 12 p.m. to 9 p.m. at Francis Field, 25 West Castillo Drive in downtown St. Augustine.

I grew up in a household full of rock music, studied journalism in college, and then became a scientist.Although my science career has served me well, music has always played a major role in my life. I grew up reading "Creem" magazine; I play several musical instruments as a "hobby";and it seems a camera has always been in my hand. Now, I am combining what I love the most--music and photography--serving as editor of Rock At Night. I travel between the US and UK seeking my dream! My motto: life is short...no regrets. Chyrisse
