(antiMusic) Crue Fest 2 is no longer being billed in announcements as the White Trash Circus. But the hype does live on. They just announced a second stage for most dates on this year's festival. Here is part of the official announcement: The new stage doubles the entertainment value at Crue Fest 2 with five additional bands - Rev Theory, Cavo, Shram and 16 Second Stare plus one band chosen locally in select markets, showcasing the next generation of rock.
Crόe Fest 2 stars Mφtley Crόe with Godsmack, Theory of a Deadman, Drowning Pool and introduces Charm City Devils. The performances on the second stage will be staggered between the main stage acts creating a non-stop music event and adding to the overall festival atmosphere.
"It's always been in our hearts to turn our fans onto new rock music. Another stage seems to be just what the doctor ordered for Crόe Fest 2 and gives loyal Crue and rock fans more for their hard earned money. See ya there," said Mφtley Crόe's Nikki Sixx, Mick Mars, Vince Neil and Tommy Lee.
Local radio stations will choose the opening band in select tour markets where the Monster Energy Stage will play. For more information about each local area contest and the chance to open the Monster Energy Stage, including how to enter, please visit www.cruefest2.com.
