Previously...on Common Ground.

Last year's show was set for 2 dates. July 10th and 11th. And for the first time, it was going to be held at Jackson Field.

There was a lot of buzz for this one because out the gate, we were going to be rocking with Blink-182 &The Used for one date. The next night was going to be more of an old school, hip hop, throwback show featuring Nelly, Baby Bash, DJ Jazzy Jeff, and Juvenile.
