This weekend rocked in 91大黄鸭, classic rock legends took the stage during 鈥楻ock the Lake鈥�. The heat on Friday didn鈥檛 keep moshers from dancing into the night to the songs of their youth by rock stars that reminded the crowd why they are still rock royalty.

Smoky skies, and thunderstorms lit up the valley and encouraged the wildfires to rage on but that didn鈥檛 deter 91大黄鸭 and its visitors from making the most of their weekend.
