Sure to be some controversy about this considering the lineups from the past 3 years. Their forum is already lighting up.

 

[Justin G]

Wow. That's certainly a departure, and a disappointment too.

 

[Savage Pumpkin]

It looks like ZZ Top and Tesla would really be the only draws. Sad really that was all they could get.

 

[spag]

WTF?

 

[OrbWeaver]

That's disappointing...

 

[Mr. Zane of HW]

it's not any more disappointing than last years attendance. I loved the lineup the past two years, I live and breath that era, but the fest needed a booster shot. If this is the solution remains to be seen..........

Given that a few of the bands listed play Ozzfest every so often, I'd say that they'll get a decent draw. Though it'll be a different kind of crowd.

And I would assume ZZ Top will draw, but I'm really not up to date on their current popularity.

Disappointing, but there are some real draws there. They got some really good bands in the modern rock genre. I don't think they'll have any trouble selling tickets.

Sweden Rockfest it is then

I fucking HATE websites that open with instant, LOUD audio, and no 'mute' option. Definitely not safe for work if you're supposed to be quiet.

I'm pretty underwhelmed, yep.

They're no where near as popular as they once were. Usually they're either co-headlining or support it seems, and when they are headlining usually it's smaller venues like HOB. With that being said though, they will draw for this fest.

Meh...if I wanted to see these bands, I most certainly wouldn't drive to Oklahoma.

An 80's hairband fest would be cool if someone would try to do it on a smaller scale. I think these Rocklahoma guys were trying to recreate Wacken or something. A nice, large theater would do the trick for a vintage 80's hairband festival though.

When I become a rich man, I might just do that!

Heck... I don't even recognize half of the bands on the roster.. and the ones I do most of which I don't care for... about the only ones I like are ZZ Top, Tesla and Cinderella. Not worth going all the way to Oklahoma to see this

Looks like it will just be ProgPower and MelodicRock Fest 2 this year. They should rename that fest, it's not the same anymore.

 

[edgeofthorns]

MelodicRock Fest 2 this year.

This should be killer! I wish that I could make it.

Justin, I heard of this festival last year, so it's good to see that they're doing it again. Are you by any chance attending?

Agreed, but you would think that if they were going to change it so much, then they'd give the people that already plunked down $$$ for VIP tickets the chance to get a refund since it's not all what they originally signed up for.

I'm picking up my lawn tix tomorrow. Should be a fun road trip.

They aren't a draw at all, but one of the smaller bands on the show, Taddy Porter, are damn good live. I saw them at the Planet Caravan Festival and they tore it up.
