EXTREME And KING'S X Going On Tour With 'Rock 'N' Roll Fantasy Camp': Complete Details Revealed

This summer, at the hottest venues across the country, musical fantasies will come true. Why? Because the legendary Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy Camp is hitting the road, giving music lovers of all ages the chance to say, "I'm with the band" and take to the stage to prove it.

For the first time in its history, Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy Camp is going ON TOUR for an exciting series of special one-day camps (plus special five-day "On the Road" packages) in cities all across the country. This means that now, for a fraction of the time and money it typically costs to "live the dream," rock enthusiasts of all ages, backgrounds and skill levels can enjoy the once-in-a-lifetime experience of meeting, jamming, rehearsing, and performing live on stage with celebrated rock legends they idolize and adore. The tour is being produced in association with Live Nation and the House of Blues.

"By taking Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy Camp ON TOUR, we're able to make even more rock 'n' roll dreams come true," says David Fishof, founder of Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy Camp. "Plus, this tour gives campers the chance to play right in front of their hometown fans their friends and family."

Each tour stop will see a different group of campers living out their musical fantasies under the guidance of notable rockers (counselors). The day begins with small groups of campers assigned to bands based on their skill levels and choices of counselor. Next, campers rehearse with their rock-star counselors, receiving professional instruction and insider tips along the way. Finally, it's time for each band to take the stage as the opening act for KING'S X and the headlining band EXTREME, the legendary rock band who is reuniting for the first time in 13 years in support of their new album. All of EXTREME's original members Nuno Bettencourt (guitar),Gary Cherone (vocals) and Pat Badger (bass) along with new drummer Kevin Figueirdeo will be performing.
But the music doesn't stop there for one band. Each performance will be taped and posted on the Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy Camp website to be voted on by the public. The band with the most votes at the end of the tour will win an all-expense paid trip to attend the Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy Camp in London this November where they will record at Abbey Road Studios, perform live, on-stage at The Cavern Club in Liverpool and win an at-home recording studio courtesy of Yamaha.

For the counselors, Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy Camp is an inspirational journey too. Says former Camp counselor Roger Daltrey about his experience: "Just to see people with enthusiasm even though they all have different abilities, they all rise to the occasion and it's fantastic. Another thing that I love about Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy Camp is that it reminds me of what it used to be like when we started."
