Bret Michaels is set to kick off the first of his six Parti-Gras festival shows this evening at the Ruoff Music Center in Noblesville, Indiana. The star-studded lineup includes Lou Gramm, Don Felder, Dee Snider, and country singer Chris Janson. Michaels shared his vision for the festival, stating, "I wanted to make a festival that embraced all kinds of music, all kinds of artists, everyone being friends, right." The festival promises a seamless musical experience, with performances blending into each other for an unforgettable night.
Performing alongside Michaels is not a new experience for original Foreigner singer Lou Gramm. The idea for this unique show stemmed from their previous collaborations. Gramm shared, "We did a lot of talking about what our tastes in music are and our careers and such, and, before the night was over he came into my dressing room and asked me if I would be interested in doing some shows with him."
While Don Felder and Chris Janson are each slated to perform full sets, Gramm's role in the festival is a bit lighter. Regardless, the blend of these diverse artists and their unique musical styles promises to make the Parti-Gras festival a truly memorable event. As Michaels puts it, "it's just a good night."
