Saturday night in beautiful downtown Gloucester and the joint was jumping. Lots of great entertainment, food and merchants making the night very merry! Red Pants Guys and the Dancers made center stage an attraction not to miss. Bank Gloucester, Cape Ann Savings and the West End Stage provided a wide selection of music to enjoy.
