Why are Monsters of Rock famous throughout the
world?
Monsters of Rock is an annual heavy metal and
hard rock music festival conducted in England's
Castle Donington, from 1980-1996. Although the
band took place every year, it wasn't held in
1993 and 1989. Later on, it was also held in
other locations like Spain, Netherlands, Germany,
Italy, France, Argentina, Sweden, Chile, the
Soviet Union, Brazil, and the United
States. Besides, Monsters of Rock was formed
within San Diego, California, to pay tribute to
other musical bands. The band was formed in
March 2005 in the USA. They were named as "San
Diego's ultimate metal tribute band." Why are
Monsters of Rock bands popular? In 1980, Paul
Loasby and Maurice Jones dedicated a one-day
festival to bands working in the heavy metal and
hard rock genre. The idea of Monsters of Rock
commenced in England in 1980 within Castle
Donington. In the following years, the band
gained a monumental. As a result, it was
successful in including more renowned bands in
the metal and rock scene. Although it was meant
to be a one-time concert, the show was put up
again over the next couple of years due to its
increasing popularity and fans' demand. The band
started putting up shows throughout Europe,
thereby carving its domain within the music
industry. Meanwhile, when the show was being
carried out in Europe, there was turmoil in the
Soviet Union. The Monsters of Rock band paid
tribute to renowned metal bands that rule around
the 1970s, 1990s, and 1980s- especially it paid
tribute to the bands performing in 'Monsters of
Rock' festivals held in England. In addition,
the Monsters of Rock were successful in paying
tribute to metal bands like Judas Priest, Ozzy
Osbourne, Iron Maiden, Queensryche, Black
Sabbath, and so on. Who are the members of
