South Texas Rock Fest vs. Rocklahoma


The south TEXAS ROCK FEST looks like a lot of fun.

It's going to be held in San Antonio on July 11-13. The lineup reads like a list of names you'd see on the 1987 Headbanger's Ball:

Queensryche, Y&T, Skid Row, Pretty Boy Floyd, Tesla, Dokken, LA Guns, Faster Pussy Cat, Helix, Ozz Knozz, The Godz, Firehouse, Jackyl, Jokester, Bang Tango, Mad Margritt, House of Lords, Zero Hour, Stephen Pearcy of Ratt, Bullet Boys, Axe

The organizers are promising that more bands will be added soon.

I'm telling you - if you want to see some tits - then this is the festival for you. It's gonna be a blast. Bang Tango? Come on, how cool is that?

It's the same weekend as Rocklahoma, so you can't go to both. They feature pretty much the same lineups, so let me break it down for you.
