Rock USA Festival Announced, KISS to Headline

I think I misjudged the upcoming summer concert and festival season. Up until about three weeks ago, I was fairly convinced it was going to be a mediocre tour summer at best. Then, all sorts of tour announcements started happening like Motley/Poison, Def Leppard/Heart, Alison Krauss and Union Station (don't hate)...and the fests keep popping up everywhere! Now, there's another fest to tell you about...and one of the headliners is KISS! Holy Glam! Buckcherry and Journey are on the bill as well! There are also still a lot of TBA slots meaning more good bands to come. The new fest is called Rock USA in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. The event is slated for July 14, 15, 16 meaning it will be hot. Thing is, the promoters are apparently nuts because this three day event is cheap. Like, you can get a three-day pass for under $60. It costs more to see KISS solo. See below for full festival information and ticket prices.

I'm buying a lottery ticket this week. I need more money to fund my music and festival obsession!
