M3 Is Coming Back... Promises Dates, Bands Soon

M3 Rock Festival is coming back to Columbia, Maryland this year and promises three days of music. No dates or bands yet, but M3 has historically been the first weekend of May. I assume the announcement of Boardwalk Rock yesterday pushed the preemptive post below.

I guess we will know soon enough.

M3 Rock Fest Single Day Tickets On Sale Friday

I'm surprised this hasn't happened yet - but M3 Rock Festival single day tickets will finally go on sale this Friday (via Ticketmaster). This is the 15th year of the festival (seems unreal) and it will take place May 4 and 5 at Merriweather Post Pavilion near Baltimore, Maryland. Bret Michaels and Queensryche will headline.

M3 Rock Festival 2024 Lineup Announced

Where did the time go? The 15th annual M3 Rock Festival is set for May 4 and 5 at Merriweather Post Pavilion, near Baltimore.

Headliners include Bret Michaels with Dee Snider (!) and Queensryche, Night Ranger and Stephen Pearcy. Other bands on the bill include Aldo Nova (!), Faster Pussycat and Last In Line, plus more. I think it is good the fest went back to two days because three was just a bit much - really seemed to water down the days. 

Tickets on sale Friday! Prices range from $90 - $275 according to the Merriweather website.

Official M3 Rock Festival Pre-Party Announced

M3 Rock Festival is coming up soon. The festival organizers have announced the official pre-party event. The poster is below and so is the ticket link. The acoustic show is $25 a head.

Also, Loudness is not on the festival bill anymore - and no replacement has been announced (yet).

M3 Rock Festival Announces 2023 Lineup

M3 Rock Festival in Columbia, Maryland is back! This year's event will take place May 6 and 7 at Merriweather Post Pavilion. Columbia, Maryland is close to Baltimore.

Bands include STYX, KIX, Slaugher, Winger, Great White, Extreme, Loudness, Child's Play and more. See the poster below for all the acts. Two-day tickets are on sale Friday via Ticketmaster (ugh!). The event is right after the Monsters of Rock Cruise and many of the bands are the same, which makes sense from a booking point-of-view. It would be nice to know pricing but apparently that information has not yet been released.

Sunday's Best: Week 18, 2022

Happy Mother's Day! Another week down. Last week was a long one for me so here's hoping the days ahead are a little less tedious.

I spent the day away from home, visiting my parents for the holiday. Now that I am home, I am going to pour through YouTube for more M3 Rock Festival videos. That's our Sunday's Best for this week. So far, I have found some nice clips of Tom Keifer, Blue Oyster Cult and all of Lizzy Borden's set! See below. All clips are from the same YouTuber named Jeff Perlin, so thanks and props to him!

M3 Rock Festival Is This Weekend - Door and Set Times Below

If you are around Baltimore, Maryland this weekend, you still have a chance to attend M3 Rock Festival because tickets are available. Judging from the Facebook post the festival released earlier today, the weather does not look great. It seems like the festival always contends with bad weather. I'm jealous of those of you who are attending! This event officially kicks off our rock festival season.
