Do you remember when Bon Jovi was cool? Uhhhh, no.
Just like last year around this time, I’ve been enjoying the set up process at Discovery Park over the last few days for this weekend’s Aftershock concert as I ride my bike to work. It’s quite a production. A lot of moving parts.

Looking at the lineup makes me a little nervous.

The biggest names are Korn (where is the backwards K on my keyboard?), Papa Roach, and Megadeth, but I’m really old so that could just be the only three names I recognize. I don’t see any bands from last year’s event, however, but the same list of what is allowed and not allowed.

I did find this funny in the FAQ section.

Will there be ATMs available?
Yes. There will be atms available inside venue and near the box office.

Those ATMs were one of the first things to be delivered. They are everywhere.

Wow, say that 10 times fast.

Tickets are still available, but not cheap. Has Discovery Park ever hosted an event like this before? Is this why Park Rangers are rousting Sacramento’s homeless campers?

Wondering if this is going to be best time every? Check out what is and is not allowed. Continue reading “Monster Energy Aftershock festival comes to Discovery Park”
