'Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival' Announcement Coming Next Month - Feb. 22, 2013

The details of the sixth edition of Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival, the world's largest touring heavy music festival, will be revealed on March 18 at 4:00 p.m. PT. Tickets will go on sale on March 22 at 12 p.m. PT.

A short teaser video for the upcoming announcement can be seen below.

Last year's Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival kicked off its fifth year on June 30, 2012 at San Manuel Amphitheater in San Bernardino, California with a record-breaking attendance of 26,105 — 4,000 more than the previous attendance record set by the tour.

Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival is produced by Rockstar Taste of Chaos organizer John Reese, Vans Warped Tour founder Kevin Lyman, Live Nation, and Creative Artists Agency. The team has made the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival a standout on the summer concert circuit by following the proven model of utilizing sponsorship to deliver a lower ticket price and an enhanced concert experience. This year sees them joining forces once again with Rockstar Energy Drink as the title sponsor.

I'll tell you the line up. Every band that has already been on the tour over the years will be on the 2013 bill just like last year and the year before that and the year before that.

It's odd they never decided to give Mayhem a call. They play festivals in Europe all the time.

Rob zombie will headline. Hatebreed, Killswitch Engage and Behemoth will be there as well either as mainstage rotating bands or headlining the side stages. Perhaps The Faceless will join up since their tour with Cradle of Filth got cancelled.
