“We’ve waited seven years, and we’re finally bringing the #1 most requested band by the fans to Rocklahoma, the one and only Guns N’ Roses!” exclaimed a very excited, if not downright giddy Joe Litvag, executive producer of the festival for AEG Live. “Couple that with the undisputed legacy of Alice In Chains, the unforgettable live spectacle of Korn and the hits of Bush, and we’re in store for a truly legendary weekend.”

Rocklahoma caps what organizers Right Arm Entertainment and AEG Live like to call the “World’s Loudest Month.” That’s because the two companies have five distinct U.S. festivals going on within a 30-day period – Welcome To Rockville (Jacksonville, Fla.), Carolina Rebellion (Concord, N.C.), Rockfest (Kansas City, Mo.), Rock On The Range (Columbus, Ohio) and, of course, Rocklahoma.

A Rocklahoma pre-sale launches Feb. 20. However, you need to sign up for the festival’s newsletter at the official website to partake in the pre-sale. General admission and VIP packages go on sale to the public Feb. 22. Visit Rocklahoma.com for more information.
