“Shredding at the Shield is just another way we are working on enhancing the pre-game experience at CarShield Field,” General Manager David Schmoll said. “We’re looking forward to seeing the musical talent on display in St. Charles County and providing more things to do in O’Fallon during the summer months.”

Shredding at the Shield, presented by Advanced Payment Services, will feature three local bands every Thursday Night Hoots Game at CarShield Field. Each band will play a 20-minute set prior to the Hoots game, and a winner will be announced at the end of the night. Winners will be judged based on crowd participation and by a panel of judges. The winning bands each week will move on to the finals with the final winner taking home a cash prize.
