40+ Bands Unite with Celebrated Rockers at Former Houston AstroWorld Site for Nation’s Premier Labor Day Concert, August 29 - September 1, 2008

WHAT

Some of rock’s most legendary and notorious hair bands will join emerging stars for the massive Rock the Bayou music bash, featuring four days of music, food and family fun on the former grounds of Houston’s AstroWorld theme park. The site is being transformed into a 100-acre festival playground for those who love to rock.

The one-of-a-kind Rock the Bayou festival features rock legends Sammy Hagar, Bret Michaels and his Rock of Love Tour, Queensryche, Ratt and Warrant (with its original lineup) – plus 34 other bands playing over four days. A $99 single admission, early-bird ticket makes Rock the Bayou one of the most affordable summer music fests in the country.  Active U.S. military (with ID) will be admitted for half-price.

For family fun, a Ferris wheel is being brought in, along with a towering drive-in like screen that will play movies after the bands finish their nightly performances. A second stage will feature local Texas bands for continuous music. Rock the Bayou will offer a VIP area, parking, safe campgrounds and RV facilities adjacent to the concert area. 

Plus, $1 from every Rock the Bayou ticket purchased will go to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, Lone Star Chapter.
