xtianrut:Someone should tell Al Gore about this. Do you know what kind of a hole all that hairspray is gonna punch in the ozone layer?

Don't be silly. Most of these people won't have that much hair left at this point.

Every hotel room is booked in a 50- to 70-mile radius. People are thinking about renting their houses.

Renting your house to people willing to travel to northwestern Oklahoma in the middle of summer to see Ratt perform is always a good idea. Especially if your insurance agent sold you that extra "destruction by drunk hair metal fans" policy.

This is definitely the only rock festival I’ve heard of that has a scheduled rendition of the national anthem (per their schedule, it’s at 6:30 and possibly will be performed by Y & T). Watch this space, though, because if they can manage to sign ‘em up there’s a chance that The Scorpions will insist on performing “Deutschland Über Alles” in the interest of equal time.

Someone should tell Al Gore about this. Do you know what kind of a hole all that hairspray is gonna punch in the ozone layer? We’re gonna have to have a festival to raise money to fight the environmental effects of this festival. My mind reels…

Nice college football reference in the headline. Even though I know you didn’t mean it. Hook ‘em!

@Ned Raggett: I had no idea Puddle of Mudd still existed.

Evanescence, too? Ugh.

I have a feeling that will be the festival with the most date rapes per day.

Whoa, that looked ugly. Take it over this, even with ZZ Top on the bill.

I'll take it over
Campground quiet time is 2:30 a.m.

Yeah, you try telling that to the dude blitzed out of his mind on PBR and singing "Unskinny Bop" all night at the top of his lungs.

And if you've never spent a summer in the midwest, keep this in mind: you are going to be miserable. It is hotter than you could ever imagine.

P.S. Pryor is in Northeastern OK, per Google maps.

I find it hard to believe that any right minded individual would ever contemplate renting out his house to a Poison fan on a 3 day bender.

There is no denying the pull of Posion. Still, some version of LA Guns is more credible then any current version of GnR
