Indianapolis MetalFest II sponsored by Roaring Lion
Following a successful 2007 debut, the Indianapolis Metal Fest is returning this September 26 and 27 to prove itself as the Midwest's premiere metal festival. The festival includes an assortment of over 60 bands - headliner-status and personally-chosen unsigned artists, including three bands that will be making their U.S. debuts (listen to the radio spot). Come rock with the Lion! More info.

Snowmass Chilli Pepper & Brew Fest
There's more to do on the slopes of Snowmass than just ski and board, as we all found out this past summer. The Lion was proud to sponsor the 3rd Annual Chili Pepper & Brew Fest at Snowmass Village, and provided the record crowd with all the energy it needed for three days of great music, eats and fun. With acts like Jonny Lang and Medeski, Martin & Wood ripping the sounds from centerstage, more than 4,000 visitors and locals got in on the festivities. Thanks to everyone who stopped by the booth to say hello!
