This weekend’s M3 Rock Festival is a pretty big deal if you’re into hair metal. The two night bash at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, Maryland kicks off tonight and reads like that old mixtape you gave Cheryl Polizzi back in 7th grade — Vince Neil, Queensrÿche, Cinderella’s Tom Keifer, Night Ranger, Lynch Mob, Quiet Riot, Slaughter, Britney Fox, L.A. Guns, Firehouse, Steelheart, Enuff Z’nuff, Faster Pussycat, Gabbie Rae, ADLER, Every Mother’s Nightmare and a bunch of others are all partying like it’s 1987.
The fest is sure to draw some big names, we Twitter tells us that former Massachusetts Senator Scott Brown is already in the house.
Brown is currently at some VIP party with Eddie Trunk, and just tweeted out a couple of photos posing with the dudes in Faster Pussycat. He hasn’t met frontman Taime Downe yet, but the night is young.
