ROCKLAHOMA 2008 RUMORS BEGIN TO STIR
Friday, February 15th, 2008 at 3:06pm by Vince Neilstein
Rocklahoma, the 3-day ’80s hair-revivalist festival in Pryor, Oklahoma, was one of the most successful U.S. festivals last summer and this year’s second edition promises to be no different. Numerous message boards and fan sites have been a-swirl with rumors and zealous fans trying to piece together the lineup based on already announced itineraries from likely bands. Now I know it’s pretty exciting for ’80s rock enthusiasts and all, but honestly, will any lineup really be THAT much of a surprise? I’ll give you a hint, it will consist of some combination of the following:
Autograph, Black N’ Blue, Bullet Boys, Cinderella, Dokken, Def Leppard, Enuff Znuff, Extreme, Europe, Firehouse, Lita Ford, Faster Pussycat (chose your favorite version), Great White, Journey, Jackyl, Kix, LA Guns (chose your favorite version) Motley Crue, Molly Hatchet, Night Ranger, Poison, Ratt, Skid Row, Scorpions, Slaughter, Stryper, Tesla, Twisted Sister, Vixen, White Lion, Whitesnake, Warrant, Winger, Y&T and <insert hair band name here>
Presumably everyone’s favorite sad-sack Steven Adler will appear in whatever band he can get a gig with these days (or he’ll resurrect Adler’s Appetite).
And, uh, oh yeah, Krokus is already confirmed.

we got the ‘Snake and the Leppard co-headliner in the UK this year and, man, I’m looking forward to that…
(not as much as the Maiden, natch)
oh, and I think you missed Love/hate from that there list, better’n the lot of them…
Holy shit, I care very little.
This is time you could spend trying to find the leaked Nachtmystium album…
Can I assume we’ll be partying with each other at the festival? I’m assuming you’ve both bought your tickets…

my god! this sounds amazing
If I went to this event, would I have to bring my own cocaine or will it be available at the venue?
Enuff znuff already ! Who the fuck wants to see Warrant,Faster Pussycat, and of all the Glam fag bands ( By the way GLAM stands for Gay L.A. Metal ) In the day
all Metal band didn’t belong to the big metal family as it seams now. Fucking Europe ? Are you for real ? Maybe they’ll play the Final Countdown ya think? Did they have other songs on that album ? hum…. I don’t remember … Please
They should call it Jokelahoma.

Godsmack Rules the world!
Metal Mark there at the bottom, says GLAM stands for Gay LA Metal……ok ok to each his own, but then he says at the end “Godsmack rules the world!” hahahah godsmack is the gayest band I’ve ever heard and it is very very far from “metal” rocklahoma is going to be a fucking bad ass party full of rockers, beer and hot chicks. end of story.
JUST STAY IN COLUMBIA THAN METAL MARK AND PLAY WITH YOUR GAMECOCK.
Okay, so I was wondering if ANYONE could tell me if Motley Crue will be at Rocklahoma this year. I have heard so many things from they WILL be there, they won’t be there, Vince Neil is the only one who will be there, etc.
I am a diehard Motley fan, so if they are there, I definitely want to be there!
Thanks to anyone who can tell me for sure!

Did any of u that are talking shit GO to rocklahoma last yr??? it was a fucking blast !!!! it rocked, i’m going this year and VIP all the way! so anyone who is considering it…take ur ass there for sure, it will be SO worth it! And VIP is the way to go, cuz it will be HOT as hell. If i’m not mistaken you get all the beer u can drink, a buffet and are able to chill in the big air conditioned tent w/VIP tickets. I spent $200 alone on beer, so way worth it. Hope to see any of u give a shit there.
don’t knock it till ya try it..
