RICHIE SCARLET IS COMING TO PHILADELPHIA! RICHIE SCARLET AND FOSTERCHILD ON SATURDAY NIGHT AUGUST 8 - ONLY $10.00 FOR TWO GREAT ACTS!!! ROCK AND ROLL VALUE COMPLIMENTS OF TORN TICKET PRODUCTIONS!!!! MARK YOUR CALENDARS NOW AND DON’T MISS THIS GREAT NIGHT OF ROCK AND ROLL!
I hear you Gizzman, it would have been nice if they had "Event Shirts" with all the bands listed and like M3 on front or something. Something for the fest organizers to remember next year! lol.
Awesome show! great bands,beautiful venue. Only minor suggestion is a slightly better scheduling of bands so as to not overlap each others sets so the people can see each bands entire set. Also would have been nice if Steel Panther would have had some merchandise for sale,but that is their problem not the festivals. Thanks for a really killer day! and I don't mean killer as in dead from walking up & down the hill so many times lol.
Wont be long now! Rock N F'n Roll! Those on my friends list know I been promoting the show all Week (from 5/24 - 5/29) posting videos featuring all the bands in my "Video(Song) Of The Day" bulletins,hope you guys at M3 appreciate the promotion to my 3100+ friends list :) I'm driving 3 hrs each way from PA,dam I'll be tired but looking forward to a great show! See you all there my rock n roll brothers & sisters! ~Mike~ The Mountain King
