This year’s Montebello Rockfest once again took over the sleepy town of Montebello, Quebec, from June 22-24 (including a St. Jean party on the Thursday night), featuring a stacked lineup of heavy-hitters including a rare Canadian appearance from Rammstein, Iggy Pop, Queens of the Stone Age, (most of) Wu-Tang Clan, and many, many more.
Below you can check out our first post of photos from Friday, including The Offspring, Wu-Tang Clan, AFI, Thursday, Face to Face, Parkway Drive, Jello Biafra & the Guantanamo School of Medicine and Norma Jean.
