LAKEPORT – Perennial favorites Bill Noteman & The Rockets rocked Library Park as part of the summer concert park series Friday night.

The group performed on the warm, clear evening before an appreciative audience of several hundred people, many of whom took the opportunity to dance.

The five-piece band includes members Bill Noteman, vocals, harmonica and guitar; David Neft, piano; Larry Platz, guitar; Dave Falco, bass; and drummer Steve DuBois.

Many of those in attendance were looking forward to Saturday's VW Show and Shine, the annual vintage Volkswagen car show with lots to do that will take place in Library Park from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

More than a dozen of the German-built vehicles were parked nearby through the evening.
