Rockstar Wrap-Up: Rock n Rage 2012

September 27, 2012 by MattC   |   Comments: 1   |   Published in Rockstar Wrap-Up

The first of its kind: a combination MMA Tournament mixed with a rock show. Titan Entertainment produced two MMA fight tournaments, with the bands Federation of Horsepower, Black Oxygen, and Syn City Cowboys providing entertainment between fights.

The winners of the two weight classes (Chad Williams in the 185lb tournament, and Brandon Phillips in the 155lb weight class tournament) both received professional fighting contracts with Titan Entertainment, to appear in at least 2 televised fights, as well as a sponsorship from SEVEN Fight Gear.


You can bet this knock-out event will return next year!

Rockstar Wrap-Up: Summerdaze with 311

311 makes another visit to Kansas City, this time for a festival-style show with Slightly Stupid, The Urge (returning after many years away from the stage), Soja, Mac Lethal, and Six Percent. Not even a downpour of rain early in the day kept fans away from rocking out!

How many friends can you jam into one car for a concert? That's what we asked at this concert, where one ticket got in an entire carload! Classic rock fans relived the glory days of rock, with Kansas City's own Shooting Star (who filmed for an upcoming DVD), Mark Farner of Grand Funk Railroad, Pat Travers, Black Oak Arkansas, and Racy Grace.
