 Legendary Band to Headline Classic Rock Night at the Wells Fargo Center

PHILADELPHIA, (May 13, 2013) – The 2012 American Conference Champion Philadelphia Soul, presented by Parx Casino, announced legendary rock band QUIET RIOT will perform a 45-minute concert following the Soul game on Saturday, July 6 as the headlining act for Classic Rock Night at the Soul.

“Arena Football and QUIET RIOT are both fast-paced, non-stop action,” said band manager and drummer Frankie Banali. “After the Soul bang heads with Chicago on the field, we are going to make sure all Soul fans at the Wells Fargo Center are going to feel the noise. We can’t wait to bring down the rafters in Philly!”

QUIET RIOT is a rock & roll phenomenon best known for their hit singles "Metal Health", "Come On Feel The Noise", "Mama Weer All Crazy Now" and "The Wild And The Young." Famously described as the first heavy metal band to top the pop charts, the Los Angeles quartet became an overnight sensation thanks to their monster 1983 smash album “Metal Health” which is now more than 10 times platinum. Their follow up album “Condition Critical” went double platinum and the band continues to record and tour throughout their 30-plus year history.

“We are honored to have QUIET RIOT headlining our Classic Rock night,” said Soul VP and COO John Adams. “They have toured the world and performed in front of millions of people, and we are excited to have them perform for our fans.”
