Straight out of the 90’s and into your present 2020’s. That’s right, Pantera, closely associated with the likes of Guns n Canes, pardon me, Guns N’ Roses, and a plethora of nostalgic bands from the same era are back. Next year will mark their headlining a jam-packed head banging rocking and rolling concert titled, Welcome to Rockville.
As per Blabbermouth, the bands Pantera, Tool, Slipknot (monsters who wear masks) and AVENGED SEVENFOLD will headline the 2023 edition of the Welcome To Rockville festival.
The event is set to take place May 18-21 at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida – site of many a pro wrestling and speed racing events. Also scheduled to appear are DEFTONES, ROB ZOMBIE, GODSMACK, EVANESCENCE, INCUBUS, QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE, ALICE COOPER, CHEVELLE and COHEED & CAMBRIA. There are more.
Danny Wimmer, founder of Danny Wimmer Presents, says:
“We are so excited to be bringing this fantastic lineup to Welcome To Rockville.
He continued:
“Our fans have been wanting PANTERA and along with one of AVENGED SEVENFOLD’s first live shows in five years, crowd favorite SLIPKNOT, and one of the greatest rock bands of all time, TOOL, we are delivering a jam-packed weekend to the ‘The World Center of Rock.’ Can’t wait to see everyone in May!”
Daytona International Speedway president Frank Kelleher said:
“Danny Wimmer Presents has done it yet again, producing a spectacular, anticipated lineup of legendary rock bands for the 2023 edition of Welcome To Rockville.
