David Lee Roth To Rock Sioux Falls This Summer

One of rock's most legendary lead singers is heading to Sioux Falls this summer.

Former Van Halen frontman David Lee Roth will take the stage at the Washington Pavilion, Monday, June 15th.

'Diamond Dave' had four different runs fronting Van Halen. The first, and most memorable, came from 1972 to 1985, when he sang on the band's first six studio albums, including 1984, which peaked at #2 on the Billboard Album Chart and gave Van Halen their only #1 single on the Billboard Hot 100, 'Jump'.

In 1985, Roth launched a solo career that saw him release six studio albums, including two top tens (Eat 'Em and Smile and Skyscraper) and a #1 single on the Billboard Rock Chart, 'Just Like Paradise'.

He later reunited with Van Halen in 1996, 2001, and 2007. He was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2007.

Tickets for the Sioux Falls show go on sale beginning with a pre-sale Thursday (January 8) at 10:00 AM. Use the code word PEPPER.

General public tickets go on sale Friday (January 9) at 10:00 AM.

Life on a Cattle Ranch in Western South Dakota

Life is different out in the country. One look at the photo from Robin Bickel and you quickly realize that a workday is quite different as well, after all, she lives out west in South Dakota Cattle Country.

Robin Bickel took time to tell KIKN Country a little bit about her life out west and life as a woman, working outdoors with animals and nature in God's Country. Bickel lives and works on a cattle ranch operated by herself, her father, Jack, and his brother Keith. How far out in the country is she? How does 50 miles west of Mobridge, South Dakota sound? Yep, mountain time out there.

Life is so different in Sioux Falls, South Dakota compared to what our friends on the farm and ranches deal with. It's a half-mile to the grocery store for our family. For Robin, it's 17 miles. However, it's a quick step out her door and she's right in the middle of where a lot of the groceries come from.
