Rock Gone Wild 2009

APRIL WINE, HONEYMOON SUITE, CHERIE CURRIE Confirmed For Rock Gone Wild



Rock Gone Wild, America's newest and most diverse rock festival, has added three classic rock acts to its lineup. Canadians making the trek south and rock fans in general will be thrilled to hear that the legendary APRIL WINE will appear at this year’s festival, along with melodic rockers and fellow Canucks HONEYMOON SUITE. The other announcement is quite a shock-just a year after Lita Ford came out of retirement (she will appear at this year’s festival as well), comes the news that original RUNAWAYS singer CHERIE CURRIE will be making a rare live appearance at RGW.

With these announcements, the bill for the inaugural Rock Gone Wild is shaping up as one of the most interesting ever presented in the States. American fans have long clamored for a European-style rock festival that features bands from today’s scene as well as the 70’s. Those same fans have asked to see melodic rockers, hair bands and power metal groups on the same bill, and as you can see by checking out the festival line-up at www.rockgonewild.com, this dream is closer to reality with every band announcement that is made.

Rock Gone Wild is scheduled to take place August 20-23 at the Freedom Park Festival Grounds in Algona, Iowa. Tickets are available now at www.rockgonewild.com or by calling 1-888-677-8877.
