Stereoboard.com will be rocking away at London’s High Voltage Festival this weekend. Our team of roving reporters will be bringing you the latest going-ons, rumblings, rumours, reviews and gossip from the rock festival that is “custom built by rock fans for rock fans.”
The festival, which is taking place at London’s Victoria Park this weekend, is set to blow our minds this year. Featuring rock’s favourite bearded brothers, ZZ Top will be playing their only UK show of the year as Saturday’s headliner as well as Emerson Lake and Palmer reuniting for the first time in 15 years to celebrate their 40th anniversary for Sunday’s headline show. The two-day bash is expected to be EPIC!
Other acts on the High Voltage bill include Heaven & Hell, who will be playing an emotional tribute to their late singer Ronnie Dio, with the show also being their last EVER performance as a band. The performance at High Voltage Festival will not be filmed nor recorded for any future release, meaning those who have tickets for Saturday’s bill of the two-day festival will be the only fans who see it.
As well as a performance from Black Label Society, who will also play their only 2010 UK show, a range of rock artists will feature over the three stages from Metal right through to Prog. Something for all rock tastes!
Stereoboard will be bringing you live Twitter updates throughout the two days, revealing the latest news about acts as they take to the stage and how they are received by the crowd.
For all the latest updates follow Stereoboard on Twitter and Facebook.
