Today,
Rocklahoma, the monster hair metal '80s rock festival, announced additional bands to its third annual event, July 9-12 in Pryor.
Added to the four-day lineup are Stryper, Warrant, Night Ranger, Thin Lizzy and Skid Row.
Stryper features three original members: lead vocalist Michael Sweet, drummer Robert Sweet and bassist Tracy Ferrie.
Michael Sweet said in a media announcement sent to Tulsa World today: "Rocklahoma is an event that I've heard about from peers and friends and they have always said that Stryper would be a perfect fit for this festival. Oklahoma holds a special place in my heart since my family lived in Moore, Oklahoma. I have a lot of family in Oklahoma. We're excited to finally be able to perform at Rocklahoma and look forward to an amazing night."
Said Thin Lizzy's John Sykes: “We have heard a lot about Rocklahoma and are really excited to be playing this year’s festival. The set will be jam packed with Lizzy classics, so see you there!”
Rocklahoma will have over ninety bands on four stages. Both Playboy and Rolling Stone in 2008 called Rocklahoma one of the top festivals to see.
