About The Moto’s
The Moto’s are a Wilmington, NC-based band with a set list that spans 60s through 90s rock, delivered with the kind of contagious, high-energy playing that makes an entire room start singing along whether they planned to or not. Rather than sticking to one narrow era or genre, the band leans into decades of crowd-favorite rock, giving the audience a set that feels familiar from the first song and only builds momentum from there. It’s a great fit for a Friday crowd looking for something upbeat and nostalgic without needing to know every deep cut — just the hits everyone already loves.

About Seven Mile Post
Seven Mile Post continues its Friday tradition of bringing strong local talent to the stage, and shows like The Moto’s are exactly why the bar has built a following among Wilmington’s live music crowd. Located at 7219 Market Street, the venue offers comfortable indoor seating plus outdoor space to spread out, with The Xtra Mile’s bar food and a full drink menu keeping the night going strong.

Good to Know Before You Go
Friday nights fill in fast at Seven Mile Post, and a classic-rock crowd like this one tends to arrive early to claim a spot near the stage. Getting there close to the 7 PM start is your best bet for good seating, with plenty of on-site parking at 7219 Market Street to make the trip easy. Order your first round early from the bar, grab something from The Xtra Mile, and settle in for three hours of decades-spanning rock favorites.

Part of what makes The Moto’s such a good fit for a Friday-night crowd is the sheer range of their set list — spanning three decades of rock means there’s a familiar song for nearly everyone in the room, whether you grew up on classic 60s rock or came of age with 90s alternative. That range keeps the dance floor full and the energy high all night, since the band rarely goes more than a song or two without hitting something the whole crowd knows by heart.

The Moto’s decades-spanning set list tends to bring out a wider mix of ages than a typical Friday show, since there’s a familiar song in the mix for nearly every generation in the room.

Why You Shouldn’t Miss It
Free admission and three decades’ worth of classic rock hits make this a Friday night that’s easy to plan around and hard to top. The Moto’s high-energy set is the kind of show that turns strangers at the bar into a singing, dancing crowd by the second set — grab your friends, get there early for a good spot, and let the second Friday of September kick off with a night to remember.
