I didn't know these acts were still in the music business...I would've thought Dokken, LA Guns, et al would've returned to their music store salesman gigs...
Some of those bands, while past their prime, would be cool to see. And watching half-naked women run around summer rock festivals can be a lot of fun. But, I'm too old to run around in the mud with a bunch of drunk rednecks anymore.
I like seeing acts from the 80s, but the ones in that list are all hair bands and I was NEVER into that, just the pop and punk. So, no, don't think I'd have bought a ticket to this gig.
Then again, I don't go to concerts very often, the last one was Bon Jovi and before that, Elton John.
ROCKLAHOMA 2008 !!![Image] Spectators Curtis Broadbent, left, and Stephanie Broadbent, 22, dance in mud during the second day of the second annual Rocklahoma music festival in Pryor, Okla., Thursday, July 10, 2008.
Anyone else glad after seeing the lineup, the apparent weather conditions, the mud, and the caliber of the attendees of this event glad that you stayed home this weekend ?

(Well at least the mud was good for something... It mostly covered up the rebel flag bikini that chick was wearing...Yeesh)

Close this window Jump to comment formThere are several of those bands that I would love to see, but those big musical festivals freak me out.
I went to Woodstock in 1999 and I think I still have post traumatic stress syndrome.
