The multi-city festival, which was set to play in Anderson, South Carolina, on the weekend of July 25, announced it was cancelling the event after several performers, including rock band Shinedown, pulled out of the show. The weekend’s lineup was initially announced in January, touting big names like Kid Rock, Jason Aldean, Ludacris and Morgan Wade, along with Creed, Brantley Gilbert, Gretchen Wilson and Parmalee.
