Our fans need to have that full concert experience for the amazing artists that put on such great shows every year. We also added a restaurant and bar that overlooks the backstage area a few years ago that is open to all fans. We still maintain open festival seating for general admission ticket holders so they can get up close to the stage. “Over the years we have always done everything we could to keep Moondance Jam a fan friendly rock festival. Kathy and I started Moondance Jam in 1992 as party for friends and family and now it has grown into Minnesota’s largest rock festival bringing in over 50,000 friends and family through the gates over three days,” says Bill Bieloh. “Not only are we excited that our festival will be shown on DIRECTV, but it will be produced by a company that shares our philosophy that it is about the fans. Moondance Jam owners, Bill and Kathy Bieloh, are ecstatic to be able to have their festival filmed and produced by a production company whose philosophy is to shoot from the fan’s perspective. In addition to the cameras and sound, Blaze will be bringing in $100,000 worth of additional lighting to boost the production value of the shows,” said Blaze TV founder, producer and director, Conor McAnally. The programs will be recorded in High Definition and the audio will be recorded in Surround sound.

The programs will air as part of the DIRECTV Concert Series and begin airing on The 101 Network late this summer.“Blaze will have a crew of over 50 creative and technical personnel to record the programs at Moondance Jam using a total of 12 cameras and are employing as much local labor as they can including some camera crew from Minneapolis. Additional artists may also be added from the three-day, 15 band main stage roster. The production company Blaze TV will be filming during the festival on July 15 – 17, and will then produce 10 one-hour shows featuring artists SAMMY HAGAR, REO SPEEDWAGON, BUCKCHERRY, JONNY LANG, HOOBASTANK, COLLECTIVE SOUL, BLACK STONE CHERRY and PAT TRAVERS. America’s premier television provider, DIRECTV, will air this year’s festival exclusively on The 101 Network. BW&BK has received the following press release:įor the first time in its 19 year history, the Moondance Jam rock festival will be broadcast on television.
