DECADES Main Gate

DECADES Main Gate (pictured below) will provide a morning “Salute to Rock ‘N Roll” using the themed art from the AC/DC album 'For Those About To Rock'. The two 100-foot towers are capped with cannons styled after the cannon on the album cover. The phrase “For Those About To Rock; We Salute You,” will be engraved above the gates. Above the gates and on the lower front of each tower will be large video screens playing music videos, sponsor advertisements and plugs for happenings in the park.

Each day, before the gates open, the song “For Those About to Rock” will be played and the cannons will fire... signaling the opening of the park. As the audience enters the park onto Main Street, they will be greeted by the many artist impersonators that will walk and perform throughout the park during the day.

Main Street

This corridor will be lined on both sides with gift shops, memorabilia stores, candy and ice cream shops, The Paradise Theater (designed from the cover of the Styx album "Paradise Theater"), and a DECADES museum with exhibits related to the history of rock and roll, blues, gospel, R&B, Country, etc.  Included within the museum will be an album art exhibit and an interactive educational exhibit. The museum and theater will also serve as the perfect retreat from the heat during hot summer days.

Grand Funk Railroad

The railway circles the park, and will have its main stop at Brownsville Station and have three other stops along its route: Terrapin Station, Chattanooga Station, and Power Station. The scenery along the tracks will be thick with sculpted art and signs demarking major points of interest along the timeline of Rock ’N Roll in its many forms.
