Red Sky Music Festival was a yearly music festival held at TD Ameritrade Park in Omaha, Nebraska, in 2011 and 2012.〔Coffey, Kevin (December 15, 2010). ( "Omaha to throw 50-band party" ). ''Omaha World-Herald''.〕 The format for the festival included a headlining act closing each night with local and national acts performing on stages around the stadium during the day. The festival aimed to include many different genres of music. In its short history, Red Sky attracted headlining acts from classic rockers Journey and Def Leppard to country artists Jason Aldean and Brad Paisley to local favorite 311. The festival also served as a showcase for many local artists. MECA's inspiration for the format of the festival was Milwaukee's Summerfest.〔Robb, Jeffrey and Coffey, Kevin (December 16, 2010) ( "Can 50 bands rival CWS impact?" ). ''Omaha World-Herald''.〕 On October 20, 2012, MECA announced that there would not be another Red Sky Music Festival. They cited difficulties including scheduling artists around summer tours and the blistering July heat. They said there would still be concerts at TD Ameritrade Park, just not in festival format, which would allow them more flexibility. ==2011== Omaha's Metropolitan Entertainment and Convention Authority (MECA) hoped to feature at least 50 bands on three stages for the festival's inaugural year. The plan was to have local acts perform in the early afternoon, national acts perform in the late afternoon to early evening, and then a headliner close out each night inside TD Ameritrade Park. In all the festival hosted 37 local acts alongside 35 national acts, although the final day of the festival featured local acts only. Notable national performers (on the B and C stages located in the parking lot south of the stadium) included Sister Hazel, John Ondrasik of Five for Fighting, George Clinton & Parliament-Funkadelic, Tonic, The Charlie Daniels Band, STS9, Bruce Hornsby and the Noisemakers, as well as guitar greats Eric Johnson and Buddy Guy. The lineup was as follows: (Artists listed from earliest to latest set times) Monday, July 18, 2011: *Main Stage: Night Ranger, Journey *B Stage: Mojo Bag, Avaricious, Lemon Fresh Day, The Fab Four, Five for Fighting *C Stage: Rhythm Collective, Witness Tree, Chris Saub, Sister Hazel, Better Than Ezra Tuesday, July 19, 2011: *Main Stage: Sublime with Rome, 311 *B Stage: Vago, The Bishops, Big Gigantic, STS9 *C Stage: Straight Outta Jr. High, Satchel Grande, Kids These Days, Cornmeal, George Clinton Wednesday, July 20, 2011: *Main Stage: Leroy Powell, Jamey Johnson, Kid Rock *B Stage: Bad Country, Steve Villamonte, Marcos & Sabor, Chad Lee, The Charlie Daniels Band *C Stage: Paisty Jenny, Answer Team, Rock Paper Dynamite, Tonic, Soul Asylum Thursday, July 21, 2011: *Main Stage: Sonia Leigh, Blackberry Smoke, Zac Brown Band *B Stage: Mitch Gettman, Session 7, Michael Williams, Eric Johnson, Buddy Guy with Quinn Sullivan *C Stage: Velvet Crush, The Confidentials, Finest Hour, 10,000 Maniacs, Bruce Hornsby and the Noisemakers Friday, July 22, 2011: *Main Stage: Chris Young, Thompson Square, Jason Aldean *B Stage: Crossfire, The Willards, Shiela Greenland, Ingram Hill, Cowboy Mouth *C Stage: Blue Bird, Cowboy Up, Jaymie Jones, The Dirt Drifters, Randy Rogers Band Saturday, July 23, 2011: *B Stage: Take Me to Vegas, We Be Lions, Hookshot, VooDoo Method, Linoma Mashers *C Stage: Cleo’s Apartment, Moon Juice, Midwest Dilemma, Matt Cox Band, Kris Lager Band MECA estimated that around 80,000 people were in attendance. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Red Sky Music Festival」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
