Rocklahoma

Thought this deserved its own thread and didnt see one, even though it has been discussed in a few of the bands threads.

quite the line-up.

8 of us going from my work here in Dallas. VIP section D (beer tent side)

225 dollars for reserved 18th row, includes parking, food and beer for 3 days of hair band music. thats a steal if you ask me. Price goes up $50 tonight at midnight supposedly.

They have campsites, but no hookups, so we are going to hook a 40 foot trailer up at a lake about 10 miles east that has water and electric.

Im In Dallas also and I think I may go!!

$225 for three days is a great deal, but I'll probably only head up for Friday Night to see the reformed Ratt.

I just might be headed down from Minnesota for this one. I got a bro who lives in Tulsa. The lineup is almost impossible to pass up on.

if someone get bored, post what orginal members are still in some of these bands.

Pearcy is with Ratt.... correct? that makes this a little more exciting.

vince without crue... eh

most the other bands do not have the orginal singers it seems.

seeing Y&T and bullet boys will be cool.

Winger has Reb Beach & Rod Morgenstein back...they replaced Paul Taylor with 2 other guys. Poison is all original. Dokken is just Don & Mick Brown...and 2 new guys.

I believe Menneketti and Kennemore are the only two originals in Y&T

You know... the core of the band.

How this band didn't get HUGE is beyond me. They were better then 90% of the 80's movement. imo.

I'm about a half hour away from Pryor. They have a country festival in June on the same grounds. They ain't gonna know what to expect in that little town when Rocklahoma hits it.

Black Tiger.

Yea, i know that they have been around since the 70's. They didn't get any airplay in my neck of the woods until Black Tiger and Mean Streak.

Back when radio stations used to play requests, we would call in and request a different song off of Black Tiger and ask the DJ to announce when he was gonna play it. We would then start our tape recorder. I vividly remember getting Open Fire, Hell or High Water and Black Tiger that way.

Nothing against you midwesterns...

This has California written all over it, even though I live in Jersey.

It has something to do with Okalahoma centenial or something, I think basically, they have a huge budget to apply to celebrations this year.
