Hard rockers Staind will be back at Pine Knob on Wednesday, September 11, for a second show there in just over a year. It will be the heavy rock quartet's seventh show at Pine Knob, and guitarist Mike Mushok tells us why Pine Knob is one of his favorite places to play.

Lynyrd Skynyrd and ZZ Top are continuing their Shaper Dressed Simple Man tour, which the two classic rock acts launched last year and are bringing back to Pine Knob for another stop on Friday, Sept. 13.

Judas Priest isn't playing at Pine Knob this time, though -- it's at the Michigan Lottery Amphitheater on Tuesday, Sept. 17 -- but the British heavy metal group has its own history at Pine Knob, including an Ozzfest appearance during 2004. Frontman Rob Halford is another who has nothing but good things to say about Pine Knob.

We're nearing the end of August, but there's still plenty of music coming to Pine Knob -- nearly a dozen shows, in fact, making for one of the busiest post-Labor Day weekend seasons ever.

Coming this Friday, Aug. 30, is Alice Cooper, the Detroit-born, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame shock rocker on his tour with Rob Zombie. We can expect more of the same joyfully macabre entertainment his time, too -- but with a twist.

Then, a look inside the business of concert merchandise with Bill Blackwell of Blackbird Vending in the latest episode of "Hello, Pine Knob!"

The season is speeding by, and July is turning into August with a couple of notable shows from some of our favorite rockers. 

Creed is in the midst of its first concert tour in 12 years, which, among other things, is marking the 25th anniversary of its multi-platinum sophomore album Human Clay. Creed performs with 3 Doors Down and Finger Eleven on Wednesday, July 31.

Sammy Hagar brings his The Best of All Worlds Tour to Pine Knob on Friday, August 2.

Plus Melissa Etheridge shares her many memories about playing Pine Knob, from opening for Bruce Hornsby to her own headlining shows.

Finally, we thought we'd remember a particularly historic show. It was Talking Heads final appearance in the metro area, on August 11, 1983.
