Bret Michaels And His Sweaty Bandanas To Headline Rocklahoma

The initial lineup for Rocklahoma, the festival of Headbanger’s Ball darlings of yore taking place in Pryor, Okla., this July 10-13, was just announced at a press conference helmed by radio host and personal Mike Piazza fan Eddie Trunk, who called the bands playing the festival “a new generation’s classic rock” who are currently handing the baton to bands currently making their way up the ranks (cough, cough). I listened to the whole press conference–from fakeout involving a pre-conference spin of Faith No More’s “Epic” to the revelation that Black N’ Blue is reuniting because the lead singer needs a gig to the “WE NEED BIG BANDS” proclamations from those gathered in the press conference’s attached chat room–so I could bring you the lineup as it stands now. It’s after the jump. (Don’t say I don’t care.)
