2010 Nuclear Cowboyz Tour Schedule
January 16-17 Boston, Mass. TD Garden
Tickets $25-$45
AURORA, Ill. (November 23, 2009) -- Feld Motor Sports announced today the launch of the inaugural Nuclear Cowboyz 15-City tour, featuring the world's top freestyle motocross riders in a never-before-seen action packed, record-breaking theatrical freestyle motocross production.
The Nuclear Cowboyz tour has assembled the world's greatest cast of freestyle motocross riders, including Adam Jones, Mike Mason, Nate Adams, Jeremy "Twitch" Stenberg, Ronnie Faisst, Todd Potter, Beau Bamburg, Nixey Danielson, Jim McNeil, Dustin Miller, Matt Buyten, Brian Foster, Jimmie McGuire and Jackson Strong. These legends of freestyle motocross will synchronize awe-inspiring tricks, like the amazing front flip, while attempting to break world records in a heart pounding two-hour scripted performance.
"Nuclear Cowboyz truly is the dawn of a whole new freestyle motocross experience with the best FMX riders in the world performing together in one explosive theatrical production," says Kenneth Feld, Producer and CEO of Feld Entertainment, Inc. "Nuclear Cowboyz will ignite the arena floor with freestyle motocrossers defying gravity in this post-apocalyptic atmosphere, leaving the audience with an unbelievable and unprecedented adrenaline-rush. This Feld Motor Sports production is going to be the greatest, most exciting freestyle motocross show ever produced."
The Nuclear Cowboyz tour is creating a new frontier in freestyle motocross by combining the high-octane sport and the high caliber of entertainment production for which Feld Entertainment is known. The story line rips wide open when the Nuclear Cowboyz reunite after chaos rocks their world. The sparse population divides into two tribes which operate without governance and compete for supremacy of their new world.
"Fans will be blown-away by this new freestyle motocross performance format which includes a special appearance by Derek Guetter presenting an extraordinary back-flipping quad," says Charlie Mancuso, President of Feld Motor Sports. "New creative elements are integrated throughout the show and include the exclusive Nuclear Cowgirlz" dancers, the latest pyrotechnics and pulsating hard rock music, exotic acrobatic fire presentations, sky-high stilt walkers, astonishing fire-breathers and the famed "Grindergirl."

Sounds cool.
Unfortunately we'll be in Japan.
hawaii week after for me... price of tickets?
Prices look to be $25 - $45
I've seen a couple FMX shows and have always been overly disapointed.
Twitch is a cool guy though, the rest I've never heard of.
haven't heard of too many of those people, i think twitch and potter are the only names that ring a bell. i've been disappointed by these shows when i've seen them live, but i've only seen it at the dcu centre. it does look more exciting on tv during the x-games when the have some running room. maybe it's worth checking out in a bigger venue.

I have no clue if it will be good or not - just seemed cool - it always looks crazy on TV and the description makes it sound like its choreographed so multiple tricks from multiple people at once. Figured making it a group venture could make it fun.
Kinda like going to the rodeo though I guess.... its only cool when people get their asses kicked - but if you have good company its still a good time.
If I am home/in the state I would be interested. Keep us posted.

If you haven't been it would probably be worth it. You can't really get the idea of how far/high/fast these guys jump until you see it in person. For those who are up on Freestyle it's probably just more guys jumping more bikes...
just so you guys know this is a brand new tour that is actually choreographed, it is not going to be that normal IFMX comp with qualifying and 4 guys in a final all doing the same run. It's alot of the best freestylers doing the shows too so I think it should be really sick. I am actually suprised it made it to the Garden, but I might try to hit this up as well.
and FYI, there are like 5-6 names in there that are just as good as twitch. Potter, Nate Adams, Adam Jones, Mike Mason, Jim McNeil. Dustin Miller rules but he doesn't have all those jazzy flip tricks.

Joel

Bumptity bump - this is getting closer. Been hearing it advertised on the radio. Anyone interested in a NESR group outing?
Show looks sweet!
Seth I'm surprised you don't have backstage passes lined up via Dustin or Jimmie Mac. Is that Geoff Aaron on the trials bike in the Racer X pics? I could reach out to him maybe... Speaking of Jimmie Mac his wife forgot to give us back our Oakleys at Laguna. What up with that! Maybe us it as blackmail.:
What's the deal cuz? If anything Nate Adams owes us for driving him around Worcester in the old Buick Century.

Still interested in going if a group goes or I'll probably just head in with some friends if the group doesn't come together. Let me know
Joel
aha Ya Alex we shoulda hit them up for payback drivin them around. And ya that is Geoff doin the trials stuff for the show, pretty cool. I read a thing where Mike Mason got knocked out in practice for the Pittsburg show but is ok now. I am still up for going possibly, but not sure I want to crutch around with zillions of people around, it sucks!

Flat tire - sure a tube is nothing
Busted Serpentine Belt/Pulley - sure I can give you a ride to get the parts
Busted Foot Hobbling on Crutches - Sorry man I draw the line at carrying you around in one of those kiddie carrier backpacks![]()
I gotta draw the line somewhere..............
Sucks that your foot is all F'd up Seth. Thought you might get a chuckle out of this post.
