“We are beyond stoked to be a part of Chicago Open Air this year,” Stone Sour’s Corey Taylor said in a statement. “If you’ve never seen Stone Sour before, you’re in for a … treat. If you HAVE seen Stone Sour before, forget what you’re expecting. It’s a whole new ballgame. See you all soon!”

Dave Mustaine of Megadeth added, “…I mean, KISS, Megadeth, Anthrax, and Rob Zombie?! If I wasn’t playing, I would want to go just to be part of the party!!”
