Iggy Pop, Motorhead, L7, Rodrigo y Gabriela, Merle Haggard among Riot Fest 2015 lineup

Riot Fest tonight announced its first wave of bands for the Chicago festival running Sept. 11-13 at its new location in Douglas Park, 1401 S. Sacramento. The fest was recently relocated to Douglas Park following opposition and complaints from one Chicago alderman and residents of the Humboldt Park neighborhood where the festival had been held the past three years.

In addition to the first wave lineup, five artists have confirmed that they’ll be performing their seminal albums during the festival. These include:

—Snoop Dogg (“Doggystyle”)

—Ice Cube & Guests (“Straight Outta Compton” remix)

—Rancid (“… And Out Come The Wolves”)

—The Academy Is… (“Almost Here”)

—The Dwarves (“Blood Guts and P*ssy”)

This year’s festival will also include a stage dedicated to that iconic animatronic animal robot band The Rock-afire Explosion, a full-blown carnival (rides and games), a circus tent featuring the Hellzapoppin Circus Sideshow Revue, a miniature golf course, a video arcade hall and dozens of food vendors.
