Rocklahoma Adds Fifth Day; Oklahoma Beer Distributors Very Psyched

308530.jpgBecause of “overwhelming response from members of the rock community and their fan” (um, sic?), the hard-rock reunionfest Rocklahoma has swelled to a fifth day, news that’s probably thrilling all the businesses within a 500-mile radius of the festival’s home city, Pryor, Okla. The festival will now run July 9-13; a ton of hard-rock stalwarts, including Extreme, Cinderella, Tesla, and Sebastian Bach, have already been announced, leaving me to puzzle over just who, exactly, will be performing on that extra day. (Also, am I the only one who just realized that Living Colour was on the bill?) Full roster of acts, including the many second-stage bands, after the jump.

    A band ahead of its Internet meme time. If it’s an old band.

    ARMORED FUCKING SAINT!!! Sweet.

    Not sweet enough to get me to go to OK, but it’s nice to know they’re not dead.

    They should just add “Also appearing: everyone’s single Aunt.”

    @Maura Johnston: They’re the same weekend?! I’m torn! The only thing that could break the tie is if Sub Pop gets the Nirvana reunion.

    The 12-year-old me would have bludgeoned my parents with a ball-peen hammer to have gone.

    @tigerpop: Nirvana reunion? Hmm… they should give it a shot.

  10. GhostOfDuane  |   Posted on May 9th, 2008

    @BawstonSean:

    Amen to that! And on the same day as the mighty Living Colour.

    Friday is THE day.

    I’ve always wondered if DEATHRIDERS included a guy named Neil Turbin.

    And now it’s confirmed.

    Thanks the Tri-Label Group.

    I looked at the list of second stage bands and I recognized ONE name – because they are from Atlanta. Then I realized I could recognize more bands on a list of Pitchfork obscurities. I think its time to go back to my roots.

  14. I really want to get my hands on this awe inspiring piece of kit. I can tell I’ll be getting no rest until I finish the game!!
