(PR) Crue Fest 2 has announced a partnership with [an overpriced energy drink] to add an additional stage at this year's festival. The new [overpriced energy drink] Stage doubles the entertainment value at Crue Fest 2 with five extra bands showcasing the next generation of rock, including one local band in each tour market. The performances on the [overpriced energy drink] Stage will be staggered between main stage acts creating a non-stop music event and adding to the overall festival atmosphere. With no change in ticket prices, rock fans will be given the opportunity to see ten great rock bands for the price of one.
A local band will be chosen by the presenting radio station in each market contributing to the legacy of rock bands on the tour. The chosen band will open the [overpriced energy drink] Stage for a dedicated and Crue Fest 2 sized crowd [half filled venues like last year?].
"It's always been in our hearts to turn our fans onto new rock music. A 2nd stage seems to be just what the doctor ordered for Crue 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. [how about reasonable ticket prices then?]
The main stage stars Mφtley Crόe and features Godsmack, Theory of a Deadman, Drowning Pool and introduces Charm City Devils. The tour begins its North American trek in Camden, NJ on July 19th and comes to an end on September 5th in Darien Lake, NY.
