🎶 Stick Figure

⚡️ Electric Forest

Thursday through Sunday in Rothbury, Michigan (An Easy Drive!)

🎸 Queens of the Stone Age

Saturday at Huntington Bank Pavilion at Northerly Island

Desert rock royalty, still pissed and poetic. Queens of the Stone Age take over this weekend! Josh Homme didn’t come here to tuck you in—he came to burn the place down.

🎤 Band of Horses
