  3. Platinum seating has sold out.

    There are less than 200 tickets left in grandstand seating.

    Plus tickets in the left and right party pits.

    +++++++++

    The Femmes of Rock is a hard rock cover band that typically features four female electric violinists backed by a male 3 piece band (2 electric guitars and a drummer).

    The idea is to feature the violins in the rock performance.

    Most of the violinists studied violin in college (the group has several violinists across the country).

    The songs played include instrumentals and others with vocals.

    Search “electric violin” and “electric violin group” on YouTube for similar artists.

    ++++++++

    Thus concert has:

    – An original hard rock artist with multiple multi-platinum selling albums (Ted Nugent).

    – A female led electric violin hard rock cover band (Femmes of Rock)

    – A southern rock cover band (Free Bird USA).

    This is a very good county fair line up for those that enjoy Ted Nugent and hard rock music.

  4. The McHenry County Democrat website has a post criticizing Ted Nugent on the home page of its website.

    Above the post is the “Donate” banner.

    +++++++++

    Ted Nugent played at the Racine County Fair in Union Grove, Wisconsin on July 30, 2016.

  5. If the Democrats wouldn’t have said a word about Ted Nugent this would have just been another Rock Concert and having a good time. But the Dems have seriously under estimated the backlash from this!

    The seating capacity from what I had heard is close to 6,500-7,000 people?

    Anyone know for sure?

    Can you say 6,500-7,000 more fired up people to go vote next year not including the ones that can’t go!

  6. Whynot is absolutely correct, which is why the loons usually employ their silent treatment, just like the NWH fakenews.
