Guns N' Roses to headline Rock 'N Rev Festival in Sturgis, SD on August 13, 2010

[axlrosegnr]

That is greatness! I need a Harley and figure out a way to get off of work for that event.

Haha, you don't need a Harley....I'm flying in, had this trip planned for a couple months now!!  I just reached a new level of excitment though!!!

[Albert S Miller]

Have the Harley, but probably will not be riding it to Sturgis, those who will be attending, enjoy yourselves, it sounds like it will be a good time

[HBK]

HARLEY Is BETTER

 

[zombux]

Actually, GN'R played a few gigs in New York City this year 

yes, but those were acoustic shows, without the giant show setup etc.

[jarmo]

Their web site at http://www.rocknrevfestival.com has been updated now.

It displays the GN'R logo and has Jungle playing...

I was thinking of Harley and that great Better commercial that was up online for a bit then taking down a few years ago.  Its a long road trip from Texas to S.D

[Ulises]

Will be awesome!

GN'R deserves to conquest U.S.A again

Great news for US fans!

About the article... When was the last time they played in South Dakota? Maybe thats what they meant and misunderstood it as the whole country..

[One.In.A.Million]

I'm very happy for all you people who can attend in the US.

I love the way the website looks when you first click the link, good to see GN'R being appreciated for the legends they are.  

[cineater]

What?  All their shit is in Europe. 

Says who?

LOS ANGELES (July 20, 2010) ? Making their first U.S. concert appearance in four years ? and playing their only U.S. show in 2010 - GUNS N? ROSES has been officially recruited with DAUGHTRY to join the inaugural ROCK ?N REV FESTIVAL and cement its assault on the legendary Sturgis Rally?s 70th Anniversary celebration in Sturgis, SD, at the newly constructed Rock N? Rev Amphitheater at Monkey Rock USA.
 
GUNS N? ROSES will headline the fifth and final night of the festival, as it moves to the Brand New Rock ?N Rev Amphitheater at Monkey Rock USA in Sturgis, adjacent to its original location. L.A.?s notorious rock ?n? roll bad boys - one of Q magazine?s ?50 Bands to See Before You Die? ? have combined forces with HDlogix and DC3 Global for this rare and very special appearance on home soil to bring the ?full-out rock 'n' roll spectacle? (Spin) of their 2010 ?Chinese Democracy World Tour? to Sturgis and finish off the hijacking of the world?s biggest, baddest biker event, Monday, Aug. 9 through Friday, Aug. 13, 2010.
 
GUNS N? ROSES? final night performance, immediately following previously announced Aug. 13 headliner Alice in Chains, is the ultimate climax to five full nights of undeniable rock ?n? roll bedlam, and now gives the ROCK ?N REV FESTIVAL six of the most explosive, multi-platinum AMERICAN Active Rock Bands of 2010. DAUGHTRY, supporting its second consecutive #1 album, will join 3 Doors Down, Hinder and others on Aug. 12, the 4th night of the ROCK N? REV FESTIVAL.
 
In order to welcome GUNS N? ROSES and DAUGHTRY to the ROCK ?N REV FESTIVAL, new festival owners HDlogix and its producers, DC3 Global, are starting construction immediately on the Rock N? Rev Amphitheater at Monkey Rock USA, a new custom-built amphitheater on a 25-acre site at Monkey Rock designed to maximize logistical opportunities while enhancing the overall experience for everyone attending ? from the bands to the fans.
 
?We are truly blessed to be able to announce the addition of GUNS N? ROSES at this historic moment in the band?s history, along with DAUGHTRY, just as we relocate the ROCK ?N REV FESTIVAL to our own Amphitheater at Monkey Rock USA,? said DC3?s co-founder, Daniel E. Catullo III. ?Monkey Rock?s vision to create a nationally recognized brand among the world?s top motorcycle rallies is a perfect fit for us, and we couldn?t be more excited to welcome them as our partners.?
 
ROCK ?N REV FESTIVAL?s relationship with Glencoe Campground is amicable amid the change in logistics. As such, they are working together to arrange special VIP accommodations at the festival for all Glencoe campers that week.
 
Raising the insanity level to previously unimaginable heights, GUNS N? ROSES and DAUGHTRY are just the latest high octane multi-platinum rockers to join the growing list of bands at the ROCK ?N REV FESTIVAL. They unite with fellow headliners Stone Temple Pilots, Godsmack, Creed, Alice in Chains and 3 Doors Down to establish the ROCK ?N REV FESTIVAL as ?The Home of Rock?s Hardest New Chart Toppers? ? a different one topping each night?s lineup.
 
Tickets for the ROCK ?N REV FESTIVAL are $45 per day, general admission ($150 for a five-day pass), and ON SALE NOW through Ticketmaster.com and rocknrevfestival.com and at all Ticketmaster locations, or by calling Ticketmaster at (800) 745-3000. Tickets also will be available in person beginning August 5, 2010 on location at the Festival?s on-site box office. For more information on exclusive VIP packages ($150 for a single day, $300 for all five days or $1,000 5 day platinum packages), including backstage access to a VIP area to special, air-conditioned tents with private bars, motorcycle parking, luxury bathroom facilities and more, go to rocknrevfestival.com.
                                                                                                                                              
GUNS N? ROSES has sold more than 110 million albums worldwide, including over 46 million in the United States. The band's 1987 major label debut, Appetite for Destruction, is the highest selling debut album of all time, with sales in excess of 38 million copies worldwide. In addition, it reached No. 1 on the United States Billboard 200 and charted three Top 10 hits on the Billboard Hot 100, including "Sweet Child o' Mine," the band?s first No. 1 smash. Their 1991 albums Use Your Illusion I and Use Your Illusion II debuted on the two highest spots on the Billboard 200 and have sold a combined 14 million copies in the United States alone and 35 million worldwide. GUNS N? ROSES? fusion of punk rock, blues-rock, heavy metal and classic rock ?n? roll prompted Ozzy Osbourne to call the band ?the next Rolling Stones? and Rolling Stone to include them among their ?100 Greatest Artists of All Time.?
 
Earlier this year, Rolling Stone hailed the Canadian leg of their ?Chinese Democracy? tour as ?a high-energy three-hour marathon of new material and classic GNR hits.?
 
For nearly three years, the only thing keeping pace with the growing number of miles on DAUGHTRY?s tour bus has been the band?s list of achievements. After charting three #1 songs from its five-time platinum debut and spending more than two years on the road, Daughtry released Leave This Town (19/RCA). The album entered at the top of the Billboard 200, making it the band?s second #1 album. The album?s first single, ?No Surprise,? extended the group?s extraordinary streak of #1 singles to four. The third and current single, "September," continues to climb steadily on radio charts, approaching the Top 10. Recently, Daughtry completed its hugely successful, first-ever headlining arena tour, which began last summer. The ROCK ?N REV FESTIVAL is just one of the group?s select U.S. dates this summer. The massive production adds another dimension to the band?s electrifying stage presence and musicianship, with a unique stage design showcasing album artwork by legendary comic book artist Jim Lee, which was featured in the Leave This Town album packaging.
 
With an unrivaled lineup of twenty bands over five nights and spectacular fireworks displays each night at Monkey Rock USA, the ROCK ?N REV FESTIVAL promises to be the hands-down largest party ever thrown at the world?s largest motorcycle event, which annually draws over a half million patrons.  World famous showman Jim Rose and his circus are set to emcee the five-day event and help give attendees a show they will never forget.

ROCK ?N REV FESTIVAL?s sweltering lineup also includes Three Days Grace, Hellyeah, Cage The Elephant, Theft, Sweet Cyanide, Charm City Devils, Rev Theory, Eagles of Death Metal, The Darling Stilettos (featuring former GNR drummer Matt Sorum), Pop Evil, Skillet, and Swayback -- just some of the bands making massive music at this colossal biker bash.
 
Everything about the ROCK ?N REV FESTIVAL will appeal to the ?leather and chrome? sensibilities in everyone who attends?from those who embody the biker lifestyle to the more casually minded weekend warriors and their families. The Vendor Village will be overflowing with an assortment of food, clothing, gear and other accessories, top tattoo artists and the best barbeque and related cooking specialists from the nation?s sauciest hotspots such as Austin, Memphis, Chicago, and New Orleans. The overall Mardi Gras atmosphere will recall some of Europe?s top festivals, with a decidedly American flair. After all, biking and rock ?n? roll are two of America?s greatest heritages.

Jarmo, Cineater didn't mean anything smart by her comment.

thanks so much for all the info Jarmo. Still trying to figure out if I can make it or not.

[jarmo]

Oh really? So copying and pasting my signature as a response to me isn't being a smart ass?

Ok....

[axlrosegnr]

So for any of you going, I would recommend camping at the Buffalo Chip for the week, as in my opinion, they have the better lineup, then on Friday head over to this place to see Gn'R. I figure I can skip Disturbed and the Scorpions for this!!!

[Bruno Poeys]

Great news! Please, festival organizers, give us a PROSHOT!! WE NEED IT!!

[Satapher]

Man, this is just great news!!! too bad I can't make it to that gig because I arrive Houston,TX on 17th so I can't arrange any plane trip to Sturgis...
Who ever will go to this gig... HAVE A BLAST FOR ME!!!
