x-fest

We're pumped to bring back X-Fest for its 11th edition.

For the winners of the Sitdown with Shinedown contest (meet-n-greet), the evening of kick butt rock and roll music could not have started out any better; and, as for the Grand Prize Winners ($120 and a private meet-n-greet with song writer Brent Smith )...

Last night X-fest 10 will be remembered by many as one of the greatest shows to roll through Lubbock. And for bassist Eric Bass of Shinedown he won't ever forget Lubbock, Texas.

If you were not among the lucky ones who made it out to XFEST early enough to catch P.O.D. let me just say, you missed a great performance by one of my favorite bands.

Forget everything you've ever known about a concert experience because we're about to blow your mind.

The tenth anniversary of X-Fest brings us another great co-headlining show.  Shinedown & Three Days Grace will headline this years event with special support from P.O.D.

X-Fest 9 (Part 2) - Halestorm Meet-N-Greet (4-21-12). We had a great time hanging out with Halestorm... Even if Chief Parrot did keep an eye on us all night! Photos after the jump.

X-FEST 9 - Here is a video of Halestorm performing "I Get Off" , their first big hit, and "Here's To Us" (New Album). Lzzy gives a shout out to KFMX and acknowledges starting their first national tour here at the Amphitheater with Seether in 2006. (MASS CHAOS 2012 Tour - Godsmack, Stained, Halestorm, Man Made Machine, Red Light King and James Durbin.) I think that you will enjoy the video following the jump.

All 3 headlining bands at X-Fest gave everyone of us exactly what we wanted to see in a live show. But the man that impressed me beyond my expectations was James Durbin both on and off the stage.

The on-air giveaways for The 31st FMX Birthday Bash and X-Fest 9 start this Thursday.  Do you know how to win and if given a choice which concert would you go to?  We can help you with these and other questions after the jump.

Today is the 20th.  It's not just special 'cause it's the first day of Spring; it's also exactly one month until two days that will shake the Hub!  It's also 9 days until we start the greatest round of "Pick-a-Ticket" ever. Given a choice, which show would you choose (or would you just buy the other?)?  TONS MORE INFO AFTER THE JUMP!

The FMX Birthday Bash and X-Fest are very special parties to us and with the help of Din Productions we're giving you even more!  We will now have an after party for no additional charge.  Sweet!  Can you handle all this rock?  Details after the jump.
