Big News for this year's Rock and Shock in Worcester

From the folks who bring us the NEW ENGLAND METAL AND HARDCORE FEST, this year's Rock and Shock looks pretty damn awesome. A special and rare appearance by King Diamond kicks off a full weekend of concerts and events. If you're into meeting celebs, there will be plenty of them. From Cheer's John Ratzenberger to WWE great Roddy Piper, the mix is great.

My own personal pick is the Saturday Night lineup with Gwar and Life of Agony. This is Gwar's first stop in the area since Dave Brockie's passing. Also that night is the long awaited return of Life of Agony. With several years in between touring and many since their last cd, I'm highly anticipating this set.
