knotfest

Lamb of God singer Randy Blythe is thrilled to be back onstage – so thrilled that he actually got in more stage time than what his band was allotted over the weekend. The vocalist took the opportunity to join Prong onstage during their set at Saturday’s Knotfest show in Somerset, Wis.

There’s nothing like seeing a major band on the so-called second stage, so you can bet that fans at Knotfest over the last two nights enjoyed the return of Lamb of God at a fevered pitch.

Night one of Slipknot‘s two-night, two-location Knotfest was everything fans had hoped it would be. The group pulled in a stellar lineup to play the Mid-American Motorplex in Council Bluffs, Iowa and left audiences with a night they’ll remember.

Slipknot are now a week away from hosting their inaugural Knotfest in both Iowa and on the Minnesota/Wisconsin border, and they’re giving fans close enough another reason to attend and those who can’t make it a tease as to what they’ll get with the pay-per-view webcast.

In the wake of his release from prison in Prague, Randy Blythe and Lamb of God have announced that they will be playing Knotfest, the two-date metal and hard rock festival headlined and organized by Slipknot. Playing both dates (Aug. 17 in Council Bluffs, Iowa, and Aug. 18 in Somerset, Wis.), these will be Lamb of God’s first live performances since Blythe’s imprisonment.

After a leak over the weekend, Slipknot have confirmed that they will indeed be headlining their own music festival called Knotfest.
