We've got another great summer show coming up pretty soon. Staind was just here playing X-Fest in April and I guess Aaron Lewis had so much fun in town (or he was so stoned he forgot he came here) that he's coming back!

It’s hard to believe that throughout their 17-year career together, Staind have never released an official live disc, but all that changes this summer when ‘Live From Mohegan Sun’ makes its debut in several formats. The CD version will be available on July 10 followed by the DVD/Blu-ray out on Aug. 14.

Check out the 40 songs in 99X's rotation for the month of June.

So, I narrowed it down to just under 100 pics from what I was able to take from 99X Fest. Here are the best of the bunch of pics that I was able to get.

Tristan is a normal 12 year old kid who loves playing guitar and listening to 99X.  But something you may not know is that he has an 8-10 inch scar across his abdomen, has multiple visits to the hospital a year, is constantly on pain and experimental medication ($400-$600 a month of which insurance doesn't cover) and is scheduled to go back in surgery soon.

99X Fest was KILLER! Who knew that this town could rock that hard on a freakin' Thursday night?! This was how the show began for some of you...backstage hanging out with Godsmack, Staind, and Halestorm.

Godsmack, Staind and Halestorm give you a peek behind (and in front of) the curtain with a new video diary documenting the kickoff of the Mass Chaos tour.

With X-Fest 2012 festivities kicking off in less than 24 hours and with Staind being our defending Cockfight champion, I figured tonight we'd do something a bit different. Tonight is going to be a special Cockfight between the two X-Fest Headliners, Godsmack and Staind...

Tonight is a true heavyweight Cockfight. Our defending champion Staind takes on Linkin Park for rock and roll supremacy. Who takes it? Is it too close to call? Well, that my friends, is all in your hands. Get your votes in after the jump. 99X Cockfight: Who Takes It...

Red Line Chemistry has enjoyed a nice winning streak over the past few nights, but tonight they face off against some pretty stiff competition in Staind! So, does Red Line Chemistry have what it takes to take down the boys from Massachusetts or does Staind make RLC ass grass and smoke it...

Halestorm’s Lzzy Hale is no stranger to providing guest vocals in the rock world having collaborated with both Shinedown and Black Stone Cherry in the past. She most recently lent her voice to Adrenaline Mob’s latest disc ‘Omerta’ for a cover of Duran Duran’s ‘Come Undone,’ and now, it’s rumored that she may get to add the new All That Remains disc to her resume.

99X Fest is only a week away!  Hopefully you already have your tickets...but maybe you just put a new tranny in the '64 Rambler and you're busted.  We've got you covered with 8 more chances to score FREE tickets to see Godsmack, Staind, Halestorm, and Man Made Machine at CenturyLink Center next Thursday (4/19).
