ROCHESTER - Rock to all the classic songs from the '60s to the present with Revolving Door, a group of Seacoast musicians.

The new Rochester Opera House season-opener party will get started Friday, Sept. 26, with the best of the '80s with ROH Executive Director Anthony Ejarque and his band The Toes. The orchestra floor is flat, so not dancing is not an option.

Then Revolving Door takes the state. They include:

Nick Kanelos on vocals, piano, synthesizer and guitar .He is a former member of the Boston-based band Unfinished Business that headlined at premier Boston rock clubs like The Paradise, Jumpin' Jack Flash, Bunratty's and the Channel and opened for The Dream (Extreme) and The Drive. Kanelos is a general dentist and co-owner of Garrison Family Dental in Dover, N.H.

Steve Canty on lead guitar and vocals. He is a graduate of the Guitar Institute of Technology in Hollywood, Calif., and well-known for his studio work and gigs at the Palladium and the Roxy. Now a resident of Eliot, Maine, Canty is a freelance sessions player.

Ian Phillips on drums never misses a beat to perform at a moment's notice. Over the years he has played with many groups with all types of musical styles. Son of a drummer, Ian began drum lessons at age 8 and now, as a teacher, shares his passion for music with his students.

Mike Collins Sr. on bass and Terrie Collins on vocals and percussion are husband and wife, who have played music together for 29 years. The talented duo plays just about every genre of music from rock and R&B to country and pop. In the '90s, they were the opening act for Freddie Hart and Pam Tillis.

The show starts at 7 p.m. Tickets are $12.
