Mayor of Wolverhampton Councillor Leach said: “I’d like to thank Doddy White and his Rockers Through the Ages team for all the hard work they have put in to organise this weekend of great rock music, along with the venues KK’s Steel Mill and The Giffard Arms for agreeing to host the festival.
“If you like your music live and loud then please come along and have a great time at any one of the 3 shows, at the same time knowing you are doing your bit to raise money for 3 fantastic local charities, which makes it a genuine win-win situation for everyone.
“I’m looking forward to visiting KK’s on the Saturday so hopefully I’ll see you there.”
