Wednesdays has become the only free shows at Artpark. And last year the lineup on Coors Light Wednesdays was great. Hopefully they can follow up this year with another stellar lineup.

Artpark is celebrating 40 years in 'Art' this summer. There are sure to be some awesome shows coming to Lewiston this season. Once again this year "Tuesday in the Park" will NOT be free. Most weeks, the series will feature a $5 pre-sale ticket or $10 week of show ticket. Some select shows, Artpark said, will be a $10 pre-sale or $15 week of show ticket.

The next best is WBLK (93.7) which plays Urban Contemporary. Other noteworthy info from the data shows that WTSS (Star 102.5) didn't have a great summer dropping from their impressive spring numbers.
