Rock Fest in Cadott Wisconsin will be the first major festival of the year. As such they have had to endure lineup changes that other festivals won’t. Over the weekend, what may be the final lineup was announced. They lost Snoop Dog, Bad Wolves, Avatar and Through Fire but picked up Corey Taylor, Phil Anselmo and the Illegals, Tommy Vext and Pop Evil. Tickets for the event are on sale now. Barring any unforeseen difficulties this will be the lineup when Rock Fest takes place July 15th thru the 17th. —ROCK FEST DETAILS
