We swear this is it. The last one. The final Summerfest grounds stage headliner announcement. There will be no more after this in 2017.
Today, the Big Gig filled the last headliner hole in its packed-to-the-brim schedule, adding Tesla to the Harley-Davidson Roadhouse lineup. The '80s heavy metal rockers will take the stage at 10 p.m. on Wednesday, June 28.
While Summerfest celebrates its 50th anniversary this year, Tesla – the band behind hits like "Little Suzi," "Modern Day Cowboy" and "Gettin' Better" – is also paying tribute to the birthday of its debut album, "Mechanical Resonance," which turned 30 last December. The group's most recent album, "Simplicity," came out in 2014.
And that's it. Summerfest has now announced all of its grounds stage headliners and American Family Insurance headliners. We're done here. There are no more headliners left to add – and now we just have to get around to the actual watching and the singing along and the screaming and the awkward drunken dancing on tables. No more headliner announcements, we swear. Last one. Fin. Caput.
Probably.
As much as it is a gigantic cliché to say that one has always had a passion for film, Matt Mueller has always had a passion for film. Whether it was bringing in the latest movie reviews for his first grade show-and-tell or writing film reviews for the St. Norbert College Times as a high school student, Matt is way too obsessed with movies for his own good.
When he's not writing about the latest blockbuster or talking much too glowingly about "Piranha 3D," Matt can probably be found watching literally any sport (minus cricket) or working at - get this - a local movie theater. Or watching a movie. Yeah, he's probably watching a movie.
