Another heavy-hitter has been added to the Sturgis Buffalo Chip lineup. The gritty hard rock of Collective Soul will hit a homerun in the opener for Styx when they take the Chip’s Wolfman Jack Stage on Monday, Aug. 5, 2019. Monday’s superstar double header is a big score for the first 200 fan who donate and make a reservation to participate in the 2019 Legends Ride as they will be attending the concerts for free.

“We’ve really gone all out for fans with this Monday night lineup,” said Rod Woodruff, Sturgis Buffalo Chip President. “Both of these powerhouse rock bands have long rosters of incredible hits and a hard-hitting energy that will bring the amphitheater roaring to its feet. Anyone who loves a great rock concert will not want to miss these performances.”
