Columbus Alive included System of a Down and Black Sabbath in its dream lineup of Rock on the Range

YEREVAN, 15 May, ARMENPRESS:Columbus Alive, weekly alternative newspaper based in the capital city of Ohio, presented its dream lineup that fits right in Rock on the Range’s musical range, reports Armenpress. Rock bands such as System of a Down and Black Sabbath are included in the dream lineup. America’s premier destination rock festival ROCK ON THE RANGE--which has expanded to three days this year--will hit hard with performances from some of rock’s biggest names. 2013 line-up features Soundgarden, Alice In Chains, Smashing Pumpkins, Korn, Bush, Stone Sour, Three Days Grace, Papa Roach, Cheap Trick, Bullet For My Valentine, Volbeat, Lamb Of God, Skillet, A Day To Remember, Buckcherry, Halestorm, Hollywood Undead, All That Remains, Device (with David Draiman), Steel Panther, Sevendust, American Fangs, Love And Death, Gemini Syndrome, and more.

"With Columbus’ only major music festival skewing to hard rock, we sometimes get a little envy of some of the rare performances and reunions other festivals get," says the weekly."Frontman Serj Tankian has played ROTR, but we’d love to see his original band in Columbus. System of a Down has been quiet for years, but they’re playing a lone North American date in Los Angeles this summer".
