So far this year, we have tickets to see Drive By Truckers and one day of Merlefest (Willie Nelson/Alison Krauss/etc) in April, Black Crowes in July and I've entered the lottery for Pearl Jam tickets in March.

We have Michael W Smith tickets........
Probably hit Billy Joel
Wanna hit Ozzy and Marilyn Manson if both are still alive
Foreigner announced dates with Kansas
PearlJam announced a tour
Epicenter could be a possibility
Blue Ridge Rock Festival is 15 minutes from me so I’ll see about that.

I didn't end up getting Pearl Jam tickets (holding out hope for a fall tour around these parts), but I did score Rage Against The Machine and Run The Jewels tickets for 8/2 in Raleigh.

Just won 2 tickets to see Dokken tomorrow night in Roanoke. I’m.a little disappointed Lynch Mob had to back out but more than thrilled to be at an actual live rock concert !! And if you tell me this is the greatest power ballad of the era, I’m not gonna say you are incorrect

I’m back with a VENGEANCE BABY

Blue Ridge Rock Fest. VIP tickets. Camping spot with electrical hook up and RV rented. It’s going to be at its own dedicated venue a pinch north of Danville. So far the lineup is amazing. Five Finger Death Punch. Black Label Society. Limp Bizkit. Skillet, Killswitch Engage Gojira and the list goes on. And they haven’t announced 7 of the 9 headliners yet. I’m certainly going to be making up for lost time

None. It’s gonna be an awesome weekend. LB won’t be too bad. I’m sure they’ve gotten better since they self destructed.

I know about 1/3 to 1/2 of them so far. Others I got nothing and they all sound the same. I must be getting old

I did wonder if Skillet POD etc will be playing on Sunday for “church” :)

POD

I hear if you listen to the other bands, you go to the bad place
There’s rumors Korn and Rob Zombie will be there. So you might be right. :D :D

My sources say that you asked to park the RV in Ballcoach's backyard in Gretna, and he turned you down! :nono Fake News?

I don’t think ballcoach stays up that late. Besides he’d probably frown on all the goings on that would be happening.

Big announcements today! Anthrax and Cypress Hill. Neither of whom make headliner status.

There are rumblings that another of The Big 4 will be added as a headliner!

You can follow along here with their twice daily announcements
