KNAC IS 40. LET’S PARTY AT THE WHISKY.

TICKETS ON SALE NOW!

For four decades, one name has been the unapologetic standard for PURE ROCK. Now, we’re celebrating 40 years of noise, rebellion, and the heaviest music on the planet with a full-blown takeover of the club that started it all.

This isn’t just a party. It’s a summons.

Pure Rock KNAC is taking over the legendary WHISKY A GO GO in Hollywood for one night only.

THE HOSTS. THE LEGACY. THE NIGHT.

We’re dragging the original KNAC DJs out of retirement (or rehab, you pick) to get on the mic and host the whole fkn thing. They’ll be telling the stories they were never allowed to tell on the air.

CELEBRATE THE NOISE, THE REBELLION, AND THE STATION THAT COULD NOT BE SILENCED.

And the bands?

You know our history. You know our friends. You don’t want to be the one who hears about it the next day. This will be a night of KNAC legends, new blood, and a few surprises that will blow the roof off the place.

We can reveal that John, Joey, Gonzo, Phil and Jeff of Armored Saint will be in the house to hang out for Q&A and share some tales, and be part of the crazy-ass DIRTY SECRET JAM.

So yeah, we’ll be pulling back the curtain for intimate Q&A discussion sessions, putting the legends on the spot. You’ll get to hear the real, uncensored “war stories” straight from the artists who lived them, sitting side-by-side with the original KNAC DJs and Program Directors who had the guts to play them. This is your chance to ask the questions you’ve always had and hear the raw, unvarnished truth about the music, the mayhem, and the magic from the people who were in the eye of the storm.
