HOLDEN, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- The sold out 'Friends of America' rally in southern West Virginia is expected to bring in more than 100,000 people to Logan County.
Hank Williams Jr., John Rich, Ted Nugent and Sean Hannity are some of the people expected to speak or sing at the rally.
The event is being held on a reclaimed surface mine.

No coal, no power, no doe.
I think we all need to have a talk with our Congressman and women, Joe Wilson had the balls to call Obama out during his speech on healthcare. If we had more people like that in congress that would fight for the right things we would have a better country. yeah obama looked at him like he could choke him to death. obama's nobody in my book, Joe Wilson For President!!!!!
I HAVE SPENT TWO TOURS IN IRAQ AND SEEN THAT BACKWARD NATION AT ITS BEST, THE PEOPLE OF THIS COUNTRY DO NOT APPRECIATE WHAT RIGHTS OUR FORE FATHERS FOUGHT FOR AND THE FREEDOMS THAT MANY AMERICANS TAKE FOR GRANTED. THE RALLY ON LABOR DAY WAS A WAY FOR US TO GET BACK TO THOSE BEGINNING BELIEFS THAT FOUNDED THIS GREAT NATION, IF COAL IS NOT KING THEN WHAT IS? I THOUGHT THAT MASSEY AND ALL THE SPONSORS PUT ON A REALLY WELL THOUGHT OUT AND VERY ORGANISED RALLY. IT WAS A PLEASURE AND HONOR TO GO OUT, AND STAND UP FOR AMERICAN VALUES AND LISTEN TO A BUNCH OF GREAT MUSIC. NO ONE IS PERFECT, BUT YOU DEAL WITH WHAT GOD HAS PROVIDED AND HERE IN WEST VIRGINIA, IT JUST HAPPENS TO BE COAL. HOW MUCH DO PEOPLE RELY ON IT? ALOT IT IS WHAT KEEPS MY LIGTS ON, FEEDS MY FAMILY AND ALLOWS ME TO PROVIDE A ROOF OVER THEIR HEADS. WHY CAN PEOPLE NOT UNDERSTAND THIS. FOR EVERY 1 COAL MINING JOB IT CREATES 5 TO 8 OTHER JOBS IN THE ECONOMY, WHAT DO YOU PEOPLE SAY TO THAT?
