What we’re about
Welcome to WineBudz – a "no-wine-snobs-allowed" group in Kitsap County and beyond. Whether you’re brand new to the vine or a ripened enthusiast, you will find a warm and welcoming atmosphere here. We will offer several events every month at venues all over Kitsap County, from Poulsbo to Silverdale, Bremerton & places beyond. As variety is the spice of life, so too will we provide a wide variety of meetups... from the traditional (i.e. happy hours, wine tastings, wine classes, wine dinners, etc.) to the novel and one-of-a-kind (i.e.... well, you’ll just have to join to find out!). So come make new friends and perhaps learn a bit about wine along the way. You must be 21 to join and no older than 121 (as we are concerned about your ability to drive home).

HOT OFF THE PRESS:
https://brucespringsteen.net/news/2025/bruce-springsteens-tracks-ii-the-lost-albums-featuring-7-never-heard-full-length-records/ - Creedence Revelation - Tuesday Tribute to CCRThe Point Casino, Kingston, WA
The performance by Randy Linder and his band in tribute to Creedence Clearwater Revival is second to NONE. They have entertained audiences from California to New York with the beloved, classic CCR hits that dominated the airwaves from the late '60s through the '70s, plus a few of John Fogerty's solo hits from the '80s, '90s, and beyond.
Creedence Revelation plays cuts from a huge catalog of CCR Classics.Expect to hear all your favorites including “Proud Mary,” “Born on the Bayou,” “Fortunate Son,” "Who’ll Stop the Rain,” “Bad Moon Rising,” “Green River,” “Suzie Q,” “Travelin’ Band,” “Hey Tonight,” “I Put a Spell on You,” “Lodi,” among too many others to list. If you are a fan of John Fogerty and/or CCR, this is your show!
Randy’s authenticity shines through with his visual resemblance, his voice, his lead guitar style and even the rockin’ blues harp played by John Fogerty in some of those early CCR hits. You will walk away from this show having absorbed the energy of a full-blown Rock & Roll concert, with a renewed interest and appreciation for the northern California band which played a huge role in shaping American ‘70s music culture.
The live set kicks off at 8:00 pm, until 9:45. Doors open at 7 pm; we’ll get there early to claim a table. Join us for an appetizer and drinks over a little conversation before the live music and FUN begins. Life is short everyone, so . . . let’s have a “Commotion” Dance Bash! The show will be in the Boom-Boom Room, adjacent to Point Julia Café.
No cover charge, so this free concert is expected to be well attended! Our group always has a fantastic time at these Tuesday Tribute live shows. Recommend you plan to arrive no later than 7:30 for admission, as a seat with our group cannot be guaranteed after that time (first come, first serve). If you definitely plan to join, please submit an RSVP so we’ll know how many seats / tables to hold. Let's PARTY!
