It's hard for some rock acts past their prime to get a good draw nowadays. But some of them have figured out the secret… bunch as many like-minded acts together for a nostalgia tour and charge slightly more than you would normally. At least, that's how I assume the Make America Rock Again tour started.
The tour features every band to have a hit on active rock radio in the late 90s and early aughts that you've perhaps thought about in terms of "what ever happened to those guys?"
Trapt, Saliva, Saving Abel, Alien Ant Farm, Crazy Town, 12 Stones and Tantric will be playing the entire run of the bill with bands like P.O.D., Drowning Pool, Puddle of Mudd, VAST and Fuel on select dates. When was the last time you even thought about Fuel? Also, I still can't believe Puddle of Mudd is getting booked even after all this legal drama.
