Shock rock takes over Montage Mountain this Friday when Rob Zombie and Alice Cooper co-headline the Pavilion. The Luzerne County Fair also takes place over the weekend with a live headliner every night. Chevelle and Three Days Grace arrive to Wind Creek Event Center this Friday, then Gin Blossoms & Sugar Ray arrive Sunday!
All these amazing acts and A LOT more. Here’s all the live music happening around town that we could find from Thursday, September 7, to Sunday, September 10. Always in no particular order.
This week’s cover photo: Alice Cooper, pictured here with guitar goddess Nita Strauss and multi-talented musician Tommy Hendriksen, makes his way to The Pavilion at Montage on Friday, September 8, with Rob Zombie to bring their own personal brand of rock n’ roll ahead of “spooky season.”
