Rock on the Range is an annual all-day festival of multiple rock band performances played at Columbus Crew Stadium in Columbus, OH.


The first annual Rock on the Range took place on May 19, 2007. The sold-out festival started at noon, and ended around 11:00 PM. There were two stages: The Main Stage was inside the stadium at one end of the soccer field, and the "Mad Packers" Second Stage was in the parking lot just outside the stadium. The bands that performed in this concert were ZZ Top, Evanescence, Velvet Revolver, Hinder, Papa Roach, Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, Chevelle, Buckcherry, Puddle of Mudd, Black Stone Cherry, Operator, 2 Cents, and Whitestarr. The bands were on very scheduled times, which was supposed to give fans a chance to see every band. It was near impossible, though, with loads of traffic in between stages.


Rock on the Range's official website, rockontherange.com[1], has already confirmed that there will be a 2nd annual Rock on the Range in May of 2008. Although Rock on the Range hasn't announced any bands yet for this event, Jacoby Shaddix of Papa Roach has said on Rock on the Range's My Space that his band will be performing in Rock on the Range 2008.
