October 26, 2012, 11 years ago
METALLICA were recently announced as the Saturday (October 27th) headliner for the 2012 Voodoo Music + Arts Experience, filling the slot previously held by GREEN DAY. Metallica join a lineup that includes previously announced headliners NEIL YOUNG & CRAZY HORSE and JACK WHITE, along with JUSTICE, SKRILLEX, AWOLNATION, NAS, KASKADE, THE AVETT BROTHERS, DIE ANTWOORD, SILVERSUN PICKUPS, GARY CLARK JR. and many more.
Now, Voodoo Music + Arts Experience has teamed with Sony X Headphones to present a Saturday, October 27th and Sunday, October 28th webstream from New Orleans’ City Park. Performances will be available at Rollingstone.com/Voodoo on Saturday (12 Noon - 11 PM, CT) and Sunday (12 Noon - 9 PM, CT), while Fuse TV will feature highlights throughout Voodoo weekend via on air picture-in-picture technology. The stream will also include artist interviews: acoustic performances and a behind-the-scenes look at New Orleans music, food and culture.
Celebrated as the final musical event of the US music festival season, this year’s Voodoo will mark its 14th consecutive year. The Voodoo line-up annually features a variety of musical genres, which also reflects the cultural gumbo that defines this historic and beloved American city.
“After a hectic few days - and sleepless nights - having Metallica, one of the world’s greatest bands agree to perform at Voodoo in the place of Green Day, only two weeks before the festival, feels pretty surreal at the moment - like being part of rock & roll history in the making… something you will tell your grandkids about years from now,” says Stephen Rehage, the founder/producer of Voodoo. “We are incredibly grateful to Metallica and their management team for supporting us in this unprecedented manner. I am sure Metallica’s performance at Voodoo will be remembered for many years to come.”
Tickets, camping passes, and more information on the 2012 Voodoo Music + Arts Experience is available at this location.
