St Paul, MN (Top40 Charts/ School Of Rock) Grand Old Day is an all-ages festival along Grand Avenue in St. Paul. This year marks Grand Old Day's 40th anniversary. School of Rock is excited to be sponsoring a stage for Teen Bands in the Teen Zone at Grand Old Day.
Sue Evens, Executive
Director of the Grand Avenue Business Association said, "We are thrilled to be partnering with School of Rock for the Teen area this year! Grand Old Day prides itself on catering to many different demographics and we are so excited to have a place that will be appealing to the teen audience this year."
Grand Old Day has played host to Teen
Battle of the Bands in previous years, but this year School of Rock selected the teen bands that will be playing. The teen talent was selected from an audition process or recommended by professional musicians.
Many bands auditioned, but only a few were selected. "There are so many tremendously talented teen bands in the Twin Cities. School of Rock is thrilled to be able to showcase them at Grand Old Day. We're also excited to partner with GaminRide and Grand Old Day to create a special area just for the teens to enjoy," said Stacey Marmolejo, owner of the three Twin Cities School of Rock locations.
In addition to the School of Rock stage, with live music all afternoon, GaminRide will have one of its mobile gaming units in the Teen Zone. GaminRide is hosting a Guitar Hero competition.
David Soliday, owner of GaminRide Twin Cities said, "Grand Old Days is an exceptional event, providing food, fun and various entertainment options. This year, Gamin Ride is thrilled to partner with School of Rock and Grand Old Day, to provide an area designated especially for teens. We'll have our
Mobile Video Gaming Theater available for all to play; we'll also have a special Guitar Hero competition available- and the winner will receive a Guitar from School of Rock!"
