"Sunday Night Rocks" is headlined by the premiere of the all-new original series Rockstar Shuffle, which gives music lovers a rare look into their favorite rock icons as they share their own priceless stories, showoff their personal collections of music memorabilia, reflect on the most-treasured memories from their acclaimed careers, and so much more. The series premiere on February 19 features glam metal maven Dee Snider and hip-hop pioneer Darryl McDaniels; Heart frontwoman Ann Wilson revealing her five favorite vinyl albums; a lively conversation with "The Red Rocker" Sammy Hagar and "The Motor City Madman" Ted Nugent; and more.

Then, at 8:30pE, Parking Lot Payday, hosted by Zach Selwyn, features two metal-fueled episodes where concert-goers are tested on their knowledge of Mötley Crüe trivia (Feb. 19) in this new episode and then Metallica (Feb. 26).

And, at 9pE, metal titans Mötley Crüe kickstart the festivities on February 19 with an emotional set captured during the final show of their final tour, as the Saints of the Sunset Strip head home for a raucous evening that includes timeless favorites such as "Girls, Girls, Girls," "Shout At The Devil," "Home Sweet Home," and many more in Mötley Crüe: The End - Live In Los Angeles. Then, on February 26, genre trailblazers once again meld symphony and metal together 20 years after their revolutionary S&M album, as James Hetfield, Kirk Hammett, Lars Ulrich, and Robert Trujillo join forces with the San Francisco Symphony to put an epic twist on beloved hits such as "For Whom The Bell Tolls," "The Memory Remains," "One," "Nothing Else Matters," and "Enter Sandman" in the network premiere of Metallica: S&M2.
