GEICO Motorcycle Presents Hot Bike Tour 2016 // Day Three Preview
Venue // Smoky Mountain Harley-Davidson / The Shed Smokehouse and Juke Joint – 1820 W Lamar Alexander Pkwy., Maryville, TN 37801
Day 3 and 4 of the GEICO Motorcycle Hot Bike Tour 2016 rolls into Maryville, Tenn’s Smoky Mountain Harley-Davidson / The Shed Smokehouse and Juke Joint on Friday September 9 and Saturday September 10.
The Shed Smokehouse & Juke Joint is located adjacent to Smoky Mountain Harley-Davidson® in Maryville, Tennessee. The Shed is a 16,000 square-foot mega watt outdoor covered pavilion and host to outdoor concerts and events. The Shed hosts musical groups with a wide genre of musical styles, from Americana to Southern Rock and Country. The Shed’s musical season is April through September; concerts take place weekly on Saturday nights. The Shed has hosted musical groups like The Kentucky Headhunters, Unknown Hinson, Ray Wylie Hubbard, Leon Russell, Eddie Money, Blackberry Smoke, and Billy Joe Shaver.
The venue’s décor is stone fire pits, vintage chandeliers, barn wood, galvanized tin siding, and twenty-foot murals with statements like “Live Music is Good for the Soul,” this place feels as down-home as pinto beans, cornbread and sweet tea. We do our best to provide an environment that is unique and comfortable to both artist and listener. We love it when everyone is having a great time. The Shed is a venue where you pull up a chair, eat some of East Tennessee’s best home cooking and enjoy a great show. Events at The Shed will take place rain or shine.
The stops will also feature vendors, 100 foot drags, stunt teams and daily features.
Also at each stop of the Hot Bike Tour along with the other stops will be the Hot Bike and Baggers Invitational Build-Offs. Featuring 28 builders building one-of-a-kind motorcycles AND riding them each day of the Tour!
