There are rumors swirling already about who will be on the bill for the 2nd annual appearance of the M3 Rock Festival at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, MD.
Although no event date has been announced yet for 2010, there has been some insider chatter that The Scorpions will be the headlining act, with the M3 show the first gig for their U.S. summer tour. Other groups rumored to be appearing include Tesla and Sebastian Bach.
The biggest surprise on the bill comes from an unlikely candidate - Emerson Lake and Palmer! The word on the street is that ELP may also be included on the artist roster to help bring some diversity, and a new and different audience segment, to the event.
Stay tuned! More news may leak soon to confirm, deny or update these speculations.
