They're not the name brand you're used to, but these tribute acts may cure summer boredom just as well as the originals.
Since 2004, the Warren Community Amphitheatre has hosted a wide variety of free entertainment, and this year it expands the weekly events, bringing in national tribute bands to pay tribute to pop and rock royalty.
Featured this year is the Time Warner Cable Rock Showcase which is held on most Saturday nights through September. Each showcase has a cover band main act paying tribute to some of rock 'n' roll's most prolific and popular artists.
