The Midwest Rock 'n' Roll Express tour will bring REO Speedwagon, Styx and Ted Nugent to the BOK Center on May 8.

JY Young of Styx said they're launching the tour for a second consecutive year due to popular demand. Ticket prices and on-sale date have not yet been announced.

"Due to the overwhelming success of last year's tour, we are going to once again wind up the juggernaut of mega-tainment. Styx, REO and the Motor City Madman: there aren't enough expletives in my vocabulary to explain how great this is ... but I'll try. This is going to be *$@&#@*&@# awesome," Young said in a media statement. Styx will headline the Tulsa tour stop.

Rolling Stone called last year's outing one of the "Ten Hottest Summer Package Tours of 2012."

Nugent added: "Styx and REO deserve me. Here we come again baby, like dogs in heat."
