I have no excuse this year. Especially with the promise of Ice Cube and “mystery guests.” The new location for the festival is down the highway from my house at the National Western Complex on I-70. The first wave of acts have been released, and older rockers are going to scream from the highest of highs with Motorhead leading the pack. It all goes down August 28-30 and festival goers can expect a second wave of acts to be announced soon. Tickets are available here.
