Are you ready to ROCK?! This week's line up presented by 96 Rock will feature Atlanta‚s hot, up-and-coming Sevendust, most recently recognized for their hit single, Broken Down.

Adding to the almost all-Atlantan line-up are five Metro Atlanta natives who are known for their uncanny ability to turn every show into a pulsating experience of funk, rap, rock and reggae, the Crazy Anglos. And yet another southern band forged in Atlanta (specifically Jonesboro) are the sophisticated talents of Travisty Theory with a mix of classic rock and alternative sounds.


Tickets for the shows this year are only $5.00 for individual tix or 12 tickets for only $36 (a 40% savings!).
