Two-Day Auction and Private Party & Concert for Invited Guests – No Public Admittance
July 20th & 21st, 2022
DAA Northwest Rock & Roll Sale
A Note from Collin McConkey, General Manager
The countdown to DAA Northwest’s Rock & Roll Sale is on! This is our favorite time of the year, and we are pretty sure it’s yours too. Mark your calendar for July 20th and 21st – we’ll feature a two-day sale, plus Sammy Hagar on the DAA Stage Wednesday night.
Automotive headlines have been focusing on the transition to digital auctions, and we at McConkey Auction Group believe in them. Digital sales are a big part of our future, but we also believe in the power of the physical auction. Is there anything better than getting together with longtime friends, building new industry relationships, and enjoying a first-class rock show, all while getting a bunch of rides bought and sold? After 26 Rock & Roll Sales we can confidently say, “No, there isn’t a better way to get business done.” So, read on and make plans to join us for our flagship event: the 27th annual Rock & Roll Sale.

DAA NORTHWEST EVENT
DAA Welcomes Sammy Hagar!
Sammy Hagar will take the DAA Stage with his band The Circle as one of rock music’s most dynamic artists. From breaking into the industry with the hard rock band Montrose to his multiplatinum solo career and his ride as the frontman of Van Halen, the “Red Rocker” has set the tone for some of the greatest rock anthems ever written. Songs like “I Can’t Drive 55” and “Why Can’t This Be Love” have earned him the music industry’s highest accolades, including a Grammy Award and induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Along the way, Hagar has also become a philanthropist, a New York Times best-selling author, and an entrepreneur. His invigorating classic rock guarantees DAA’s 27th Annual Rock & Roll Sale will be one to remember.
