PHONE lines at Torfaen Leisure Trust are ringing off the hook as music fans scramble to get their Stadium Rocks tickets.
The event on October 26 is headlined by Newport reggae-rockers Skindred.
Tickets cost £25 and are only available to buy from the stadium's box office.
They will be joined by Cardiff hard rockers Fallen Temples, Chelmsford rock band Tigress and Bridgend’s Those Damn Crows.
