The dominant Danish metal band. We said metal but the leader, Michael Poulson, is a big fan of Elvis and you can hear it. Breakthrough album ‘Beat the Meat;’ opened for Metallica and Megadeth. Last two albums ‘Guitar Gangsters,’ and ‘Outlaw Gentlemen’ were number one all over Europe. All ages.

The Sanctuary, 670 4th Ave N, Fargo
Heavy metal from Denison, Texas. Fans call them THC. Our favorite album is ‘Peacemaker.’ ‘Ride On’ is nice too: ‘...our way of letting everybody know that rock and roll ain’t dead.’ Oh, and the song off their second album, ‘Pissed Off and Mad About It.’ 21+

Is it your first time? Start at the back. Don’t make any sudden moves. Keep your hands near the brakes. Watch out for potholes, oil, speed bumps, and oncoming cars on narrow roads. It’s okay to spit or blow your nose, but first move away from the group.

Oklahoma based Red Dirt country band the Turnpike Troubadours are coming to Fargo to promote their new album and to rock your socks--er--boots off. They’re a little rough around the edges but have a whole lotta soul. Playboy even gave them a nod mentioning they were one of three bands to check out in 2015.
