“When I talked to Bret about our plans for
the Gonzales Thunder Rally, I got the feeling he was just as pumped and
excited about the event as we were,” said Ben
Pigott, Gonzales Thunder Rally brainchild. “People
have no idea what’s in store for them. This
show will be awesome!”
Gonzales Thunder Rally organizers Rock Festival Productions expect
20,000+ bikers and concertgoers from central and south Texas to make the
trip to Gonzales in October, a month known for its great riding weather.
A portion of festival proceeds benefits Norma’s
House in Gonzales.
“This event is going to transform Gonzales
and the region into a live music mecca. The citizens of Gonzales are
extremely enthusiastic that an event of this size is being held in their
city. Gonzales is central to Austin, San Antonio and Houston –
it’s a super location for music events.”

Advocacy Center) is one of 61 child advocacy centers in the state of
