People were talking about this on Sludge over the weekend. I suggested the trip to my husband, who laughed. True, Oklahoma isn’t my top vacation destination.

The tickets are quite pricy for good seats. $225.00 Each.
That is a little too much for this rock fan.
Yes, but they do go down as low as $100 I believe. Well worth a 3 day festival. Hell, you usually can’s see 1 band (no matter who it is for less than a $50 spot.
Does anyone know where to go to see a linup? I’d like to know when the bands are playing because I for sure dont want to miss RATT.
how do I get information on going to this rockfest!!!!!
Hi Rosa,

Hi Stacy,

holy crap. This place is like 3 minutes away from my house. I’m physched. I’m totally going. All my favorite bands. I nearly fainted when i heard about it. Whats the price for the tickets?
The good seats were going for $225.00. I am sure there are cheaper ones available. All of the great seats are sure to be sold out by now.
does anyone know if they are going anywhere else or thats the only place they gone do this
To my knowledge, this is a one show deal, however, I keep hearing that RATT (with Stephen Pearcy), Poison, and Great White are going to hit the road. A 4th act may be on the tour. The last I heard it could be Jani Lane.
thats too bad that they wont come closer to my house but who cares i’m going to them cant miss this
Im here in tulsa, and this is the biggest concert that oklahoma has ever seen for sure…..just got me tickets 30 minutes ago.. come on out to oklahoma everyone, this is gonna be a great weekend……….
That’s an awsome picture of the boys from RATT. I’m gonna try to go to Rocklahoma, hopefully I can go because all those guys who are playing there are my favorites!!! This is the first time I heard that Stephen Pearcy was gonna be there, that makes it even better!!!!!!!!
I live in Boston, MA and I am going with 2 of my friends. I CANNOT WAIT! These are all the bands I used to/still listen to on my iPod. We’ll show ya how Boston “pah-ties”.
me and my friends are going down there and were gonna rock out for a bad ass three day event but i do need to kno were i can get the tickets so if any body knows how to get them tell me please….WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
http://www.rockfeverfest.com for tix
I just got word that Great White and W.A.S.P. are gonna be added too. also hearing rumors Whitesnake will be there. I hear Pryor Ok. is only about 30-40 minutes from Tulsa. I been there once and had a good time so i’m comin back for this. Rock On!
I just bought my tickets so I AM THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I CAN’T WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can anyone tell me where the concert will be. We are coming from Kanas and need to find details for camping or lodging.
It is in Pryor, Oklahoma, about 30 miles East of Tulsa.
gen.adm. seats are 70+taxes for all 3 days, and a camping spot is 38+taxes, everything you need will be, but if not, get it before you come here because pryor, oklahoma is like mayberry but smaller!!!! and the beer is weak in this state 3.2 so stock up….
does anyone know what kind the free beer is? Bud, Coors, Miller, etc hopefully not Miller MGDog piss !!!
i live within earshot of the place becouse they have country fever there and i hear it every year never been i have tickets for the feverfest CAN’T WAIT!!! I’m ready to rock out to the long awaited HAIRSTOCK!!! That’s what we need to call it not to make fun but for all the 80’s rockers that will be there!
UPDATE !!! the only beer products that will be sold there will be Miller “GAG”. That means NO BUD and NO Coors Light. There’s gonna be 50,000 plus sick people there throwing up all over the place. Too bad too cause, what a great concert fest it’ll be, but a really baaaaaaaaddddd beer. And by the way, Miller is not even 3.2 beer, it is more like 2.6 beer for those of you that didn’t already know that.
I’ve got my tickets, but for those of you that don’t good luck. They’re selling QUICKLY! These are all the bands I loved as a teenager and only and hours trip away. Have fun ya’ll.
Change of heart…I just bought three tickets. $100 GA seats so I can control my own food…

I am so jealous. I want to go!
great line up,here in europe we are all waiting for americans to throw in the can the (s)hit hop (c)rap “modern” rock nu metal garbage.
it’s unbeleviable how american music is in such a tragic situation at the present day.
so if those prices were only good through April 9th, what are they now?
i got mine on april 9th i went with the vip seat they were 225 a piece but you have included 2 meals a day buffet style and beer all you can drink i think thats a great deal for 3 days i’m not sure what they cost now if you go to the website and sign up and choose the seats(whatever is left not much) it gives you the price good luck i got mine and cant wait

Me and my buddy are coming from Rapid City, SD; there is no way in hell we would miss this 80’s hair metal f*** fest for the world! They need to add Danger Danger, Lizzy Borden, Dangerous Toys, Big Cock(they are actually a real band, and they kick ass!), and Rhino Bucket just to name a few! Rock on my fellow metalheads!!!
what a hell im in mexico still dont know how but im going there how many miles are from laredo texas to okla thanks 4 all
Coming from Jersey even though most of these bands play by us frequently. I think a lot of people are going to be suprised just how good Y&T are live. I wish Phil Lewis was still with the Guns, and have to get used to Warrant with Mr. “Black n Blue” St. James on vocals! Vince Neil should not be headlining any night. Brity Boys will rock as will Mr. Mark and the Slaughter gang. WASP is going to tear the place down, and I always enjoy Dokken live. Two of the biggest suprises there will be Quiet Riot and the Bullet Boys. There’s a lot of interest with the Ratt reunion, but Poison still rules the roost. What happened to Steelheart? I thought they were on the bill?? How’s about a suprise anouncement from Eddie Trunk giving us Europe instead of Whitesnake????? Metal in the US of A has sucked for the last decade, but this stuff never died in the Garden State!!!!
Not to mention the greatest god-damn glam band of all time. From the mighty depths of San Fran…….VAIN.
Eddie- what are you waiting for?????
Twisted Sister is now on the bill and a 18 hr. roadtrip from WYO is in the works can’t wait!!!!!
RockFest in Pryor Oklahoma…… I Have 3 rooms for 3 couple available for rockfest I want to rent all 3 at the same time 2 cabins and one suite…. Prices $155 for one jacuzzi cabin, $165. for the other and $225.00 for the suite, all jacuzzi cabins and suite, that is a night with a 3 day min. call 918-266-7121. about 35 min from Pryor….. http://www.bbonline.com/ok/countrycabin/
Hello rock fans like me i was wondering what the price was for the tickets now that it is after april 9th i have to get two tickets. Since its after april 9th can you still buy the vip tickets if so how much are they now? Ya know i can remember way back when i was in junior high these bands is all us kids listeded to & i still listen to them today good rock n roll will always live in us. i was wondering with as many people that is going to be there how in the world do they plan on keeping things under control like when people that are going to be drinking that are gonna wanna fight i mean i jus hope everyone can jus have a good time but ya know with big attractions like this one ya never can be too sure. i jus still got to get tickets yet its for my husbands birthday present from me. well i pray that everyone who is going has a great time & that for all of you that are going to be traveling for this event i pray that you have a safe trip may god be with each & everyone who is going.
My hardrocker bro and I are so excited that we would enjoy going but the tickets, the stay, the $GREEN$, and the rents’are as stuck up as blondes are with their plastic….but Rock On!…all you lucky sons of B*#@>es!!!
