Seven tribune bands will play at the Falconwood event, which is free and open to the public. Falconwood said in a news release that the concerts are intended as part of its "summer kick off events to welcome folks from the Omaha area to the park."

Local Rage Against The Machine tribute band No Shelter will perform Saturday along with Muse tribute band Gallivant and White Stripes tribute band Icky Thump. Gates are at 6 p.m. and the show starts at 6:30 p.m.
