Roadie Palooza

ROADIE PALOOZA is an annual gathering of ROADIES. Think of it like a Roadie convention but without suits and ties and with adult beverages and loud music. At every Roadie Palooza we take time to read the “Roadie Roll Call which is a list of the Roadie brothers and sisters that we have lost over the past year. Since 2009 we have also inducted one special Roadie into the Roadie For Life Hall of Fame.

The first ROADIE PALOOZA was held Oct 23rd 2005 in Las Vegas NV at the World Famous Double Down Saloon.

RP-2 was held in Nashville TN at the Nashville Palace in October 2006.
