Trickle Autograph Party August 26 At The Milwaukee Mile
Jersey rocker J-Henry performing free concert
Milwaukee, Wis. (August 12, 2005) - After practicing his own Super Late Model
racecar in the afternoon, Wisconsin auto racing legend Dick Trickle will sign
autographs for fans during a Friday night August 26 driver autograph party at
The Milwaukee Mile.
Several NASCAR and USAC drivers will join Trickle beginning at 6:00 p.m. CST
for the autograph party behind the new Milwaukee Mile grandstands.
Trickle and an estimated 200 drivers converge on America's Legendary Oval for
the speedway's August 26-28 Governor's Cup weekend, featuring a 200-lap NASCAR
Autozone Elite Division, Midwest Series race, the return of the USAC Valvoline
National Sprint Car Series in the Parnelli Jones Classic, plus four grass
roots Governor's Cup stock car divisions in action.
Trickle will test and tune his racecar on Friday in preparation for the Sunday
afternoon 50-lap MARS Super Late Model race. Practice sessions begin on
Friday for the Governor's Cup divisions, with on-track practice, qualifying
and racing on Saturday and Sunday. Three main events will be offered on
both Governor's Cup weekend race days.
The Friday night autograph party transitions into a concert around 6:45 p.m.
CST by rising heartland rock artist J-Henry, who will perform on the
International Amphitheatre stage, a permanent outdoor stage located directly
behind the grandstands.
Invited to be part of the NASCARregionalracing.com
"Emerging Artist Series", J-Henry brings his artful blend of
Americana, blues, rock and pop to Milwaukee, after similar performances in
August at NASCAR tracks in Indianapolis, Ind. and Stockton, Calif.
J-Henry grew up in New Jersey in a working class family of five boys listening
to Bruce Springsteen, John Mellencamp and Bob Seger, while fine-tuning his own
version of heartland rock. His album "Another Long Day" was
released nationally this past Tuesday (Aug. 9), with his first single
"Come On" currently the sixth most added single in America, with
radio airplay from both AAA and Hot AC radio. He'll be performing at
racing venues across the country through the fall.
Both the autograph session and concert presented by The Milwaukee Mile are
free to attend.
