The Rockstar Energy Uproar Festival has partnered with two charities. As in previous years, the tour is working with Child Find Of America. New to the festival is MusiCares, the nonprofit organization established by the Recording Academy to aid musicians that are experiencing hard times, including financial, medical and personal problems. Both charity organizations will be well represented on the tour.
Ticket prices range from $15 to $75 with many cities going on sale this weekend. VIP packages are available. Visit RockstarUproar.com for more information.
