Rockapalooza 2011 Lineup Shaping Up To Be Best Yet
Jackson, Michigan will explode with sound of screaming guitars and heart
racing drums as bands take the stage at Rockapalooza June 25th
Including a diversity of Rock music with a focus on melodic hard rock and heavy
metal bands that play original music, this event will be hosted by Tim Corser
and the Kings of Rock Entertainment. This event will be held at the racetrack on
the Jackson County Fairgrounds.
Last year 30 bands took to three stages over the event. This included headliners
Sevendust, Otep and Egypt Central, with Bury Tomorrow, coming in from
Southampton/Portsmouth, England. This year Chiodos, Silverstein, Sleeping with
Sirens, Mushroomhead, Sore Eyes, Violets for Verona, State Your Cause, Shallow
Side, Killjay, As Summer Dies, Hollow Drive, Lifeline, Oh No Fiasco, and Despite
the Risk, with others to be announced will take the stage.
As Corser enjoys homes in both Spring Arbor, Michigan and Nashville, Tennessee,
it should not come as any surprise to find that this lineup will include bands
from Michigan to southern Florida, and points in between. "With so many bands
booked, there's enough variety that anyone who likes rock music should find
something they like," Corser said.
Rockapalooza started in 2008 with 17 bands playing on Mechanic Street in
conjunction with one of The Crazy Cowboy's race week street parties. Since
Corser has developed it into a dynamite event that has taken over most of the
fairgrounds.
Comedian Pauly "The Weasel" Shore will emcee the show. Immediately recognized
for his MTV VJ fame, he appeared in the movies, Encino Man, Son in Law, In the
Army Now, Jury Duty and Bio-Dome. He will also do a pre-show the night before
Rockapalooza. Tickets NOW available at CK Barrymore in downtown Jackson next to
