BROOKLYN, Mich. -- It looks like the folks at Sirius Satellite Radio are getting serious about having some fun at Michigan International Speedway this weekend.

In addition to being the title sponsor of Sunday's Sirius Satellite Radio 400, the company is also providing some rock n' roll sounds with live performances on the track property for the fans enjoyment.

The Blues Brothers, with Dan Aykroyd and Jim Belushi, Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels and female foursome Soluna will be featured.

The concert gets under way at 5 p.m. Saturday, following the ARCA race. The concert will be held in the Water Tower Lot, located at the corner of Brooklyn Road and U.S. 12.

All fans with a weekend ticket will be admitted to the concert, as will fans with weekend infield access wristbands. Everyone is encouraged to bring blankets, lawn chairs and their own refreshments for the concert.

Parking is available throughout the MIS grounds.

Casey Atwood, driver of the No. 7 Sirius Dodge, will be attending a fan forum at the Rhythm of the Road Tour located in the fan Midway Area. Atwood will be signing autographs on Saturday from 12:45 - 1:45 p.m., right after Happy Hour. On Sunday, Soluna will be back to sing the American and Canadian anthems prior to the race.
