Last week Riot Fest announced their initial lineup for both their Denver and Chicago festivals and although they’re pretty much the same, Denver’s weekend is looking pretty awesome.  The festival–taking place Labor Day weekend–will be held at the National Western Complex here in Denver.

Topping the bill is the highly anticipated reunion of The Original Misfits featuring Glenn Danzig, Jerry Only and Doyle Wolfgang Von Frankenstein.  Other high profile performances include the recently reunited Ween, Jane’s Addiction performing Ritual De Lo Habitual, Death Cab For Cutie, Nas, Deftones, Sleater-Kinney and many more! There are also question marks on the poster presumably for more artist announcements.  Check out the poster here.  A full list of the first wave is below.

Nate Todd

Nate Todd was born on the central plains of Nebraska, but grew up on the high plains of the Texas panhandle. With not much to do in either place, music was his constant companion. His parents dubbed the first two albums he ever owned onto a tape for him. Side A was Bert and Ernie’s Sing Along. Side B was Sgt. Peppers. His lifelong love affair with music started early as he practically grew up in a Rock & Roll band, with his father and uncle often taking him out on the road or into the studio with them. Nate began performing live at sixteen and hasn’t looked back, having played in numerous bands from L.A. to Austin. At the age of twenty he was bitten by the writing bug, and upon moving to Denver decided to pursue a degree from Metropolitan State University where he recently graduated with a B.A. in English and a minor in Cinema Studies.
