We haven’t led you astray yet, right? So far our rumors for Rocklahoma have turned into realities, with the exception of our Motley Crue Sunday headliner prediction which hasn’t yet been announced, but we’ll get to that in a moment.
The same anonymous tipster who correctly told us that Extreme, Tesla, Kix and many others would be announced for Rocklahoma has just alerted us that Sammy Hagar will be filling the final Friday spot. Woah! No word on whether ex-Van Halen and The Other Half bassist Michael Anthony will be playing with him or not.
In addition to that, Motley Crue, Buckcherry and Drowning Pool (which our tipster mis-spelled as Frowning Pool. Intentional or not, I love that typo) will be teaming up for a U.S. Summer tour, and the tour will make a stop at Rocklahoma to fill the remaining empty Sunday slots.
Put that in your pipe and smoke it. And now back to your usual Saturday stoniness…

I hate Drowning Pool, but I’d go see Motley Crue and Buckcherry if that rolled thru town. Rocklahoma blows this year tho. What happened to the rumours of it being “more metallic” and “Maiden-esque”???
Why not posting something we actually care about?
Vince Neil is fat.
who cares if vince is fat? its not like youre going to marry him .
These additions would solidify a line-up lacking big name star power on each and every day. Thousands of tickets were sold before a single band was announced purely because people enjoyed last year so much. While many of the bands playing were huge in their day, the overall event is a much bigger disappointment. Adding these four acts (as well as a rumored Ace Frehley) would excite many undecided ticket buyers and make a lot of people who have already shelled out hundreds of dollars much more enthusiastic.
And not a single one of these “confirmed” bands will be a the show. Nice reporting.
seen van halen last year i would love to see sammy because though i bought my ticket already we need some big names to come Nelson come on how gay is that
WOW.. your “tipster” was TOTALLY WRONG.. LOL…
Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
