Rocklahoma 2010

Ah, my bad. Rocklahoma, Rock Gone Wild, Rock Out with Your C**k Out, Rock Me Amadeaus. You can see how I'd be confused.

Don't forget the rock, rock 'til you drop fest.

I wish our festivals where like festivals overseas, where it is not unusal to see Twisted Sister, Deep Purple, Cradle of Filth and other genres of metal/hard rock, over here we get the Glitter Boys!!!!!!!!!

I don't know why they even bother with a roster like this years... europe get's the good festivals and Japan gets the bonus tracks.

No...about 12 years since the whole "80s band package tours" thing began happening...

Ahhhh, now I gotcha.

Nowhere near last year's set. Ratt, Anvil, and Metal Church on one bill.

This has got to be the absolute queerest festival I have ever seen a line-up for. Its under new management and I knew it was gonna get shitty, but not that bad!!!!

I thought the same thing after I read the line-up.

MODERN ROCK BANDS -- REVOLT!!!!

Anyway, yeah a lot of these acts I've never heard of but ZZ Top, Godsmack, Tesla, Buckcherry and Cinderella? Do you guys even like rock 'n' roll? Saliva is probably decent and I'd love to see Wildstreet. They put out a great debut last year.

I went last year to see friends in bands like Gene from Mass, and Jon and Ernie from Halcyon Way, oh and Robert from Stryper. Other cool acts last year were Saxon, Anvil, and Lizzy Borden. The previous year Nightmare Records had a few acts and sponsored one of the smaller stages.

But for 2010 outside of the ZZ Top, and Tesla. I only like Chevelle and mildly like Godsmack. I'll probably go the Loeffler's are really cool dudes to hang out with and visit especially Pete.

Last year they had Saxon and Stryper? Seeing them with Metal Church, Ratt and Anvil would have been a blast!

Yeah, I missed Metal Church and Ratt, as I only drove up for the saturday showcase.

I'd go to this fest for Cinderella alone. One of my fave bands.

You guys are all nuts.

Sit through all that crap for one band?? You either have a lot of time on your hands or like wasting money...

Why go all the way to Hellahoma when I can see Cinderella, Godsmack, and ZZ Top right here at home?

Well isn't it owned by AEG now? You'd know AEG if you lived here in Vegas. These are the same people responsible for booking Celine Dion, Black Eyed Peas, Barry Manilow, Cher, Bette Midler, Taylor Swift and more. So obviously it won't be what it was.

AEG is also responsible for the Coachella Festival and thats just as bad.

What gets me also is that last year there were a few stages that were sponsored by other labels. Nightmare Records, Retrospect Records and a few more. None of them are dealing with it this year.

I do not know AEG but I know that the smaller label stages were ten times better and more fan friendly than the main stages and the acts and their labels were treated very poorly.

Why would a label like Nightmare or Stormspell spend so much time and money promoting an event to to be treated so poorly? Answer they won't!

No, I won't be going to this.

It is rare to see Cinderella these days though. They haven't been here in ages.

I just saw the name Cinderella on there- and thought that was cool.

But yeah - there is a lot of crap on this bill. I wouldn't pay to see it.

I thought you were serious... I agree that it's rare to see Cinderella but it's not worth all that other crap.

I agree. I was only kidding about being excited for this crap-fest.
