It was The Rusty Grizwolds‘ 3rd year in a row handling the “house band” duties for the Reds’ annual celebration of their first night game of the season. And what a celebration it was.

The Reds brought out the star power all night long… kicking things off with a National Anthem rendition by American Idol Season 11 contestant Eben Franckewitz along with NKY native and  “Hunger Games” star Josh Hutcherson throwing out the first pitch.

The Grizwolds retained the vibe all night long with live music between innings and a post-game performance synced to a one and only Rozzi fireworks display.

We were happy to be there helping make those Rusty jams happen.
