Here's my guess on the upcoming Concert season
Boston
Joe Cocker
Foreigner
Billy Squier
Cheap Trick
Steve Miller
Journey
Heart
Def Leopard
REO Speedwagon
There's not that many bands touring this season. Must be the gas prices.

Those would be good, but I am hoping for a band that is from this century.
Can't see journey without steve perry, just can't do it.
Ha.. exactly my thoughts!! I'm still kicking myself for not seeing them when Steve Perry was the lead..... Journey brings back so many memories! Even today, I can't hear a song of theirs without strolling down memory lane.
'Lights' 'My city by the Bay'..... San Francisco Bay Area, it's especially touching to me... just kills me!
" You've Been Thunder Struck ! "
Darn it..I posted this under Rocklahoma! Oh well, I'll put a different video.. this guy is simply amazing!!
Okay, this guy is just unreal!
Gives me goosebumps!
My favorite Journey song ever
The sound is a little grainy but he is spot on!
" You've Been Thunder Struck ! "
You have to watch the whole video.
Is your mind blown yet?
" You've Been Thunder Struck ! "
Soonerbent, were you able to see the Video above that I posted? Hopefully, it shows up for you....

Karried, the guy is good but he's just not the original. I've seen Kansas without Steve Walsh, REO without Kevin Cronin, etc. They all did a pretty good job of finding sound-alikes but the stage presence and the feel just isn't the same.
Boston is scheduled to be at the Zoo June 25 (per Boston's website) with the singer from Stryper and a guy who has a Myspace page that sounds like Brad Delp as their singers...
Steve Miller/Joe Cocker is a package tour, as is the Journey/Heart/Cheap Trick show...
Putting Matthew Sweet in Boston is like putting jello on your peanut butter sandwich.
And Karried I'm sorry. That guy is a good singer, but watching him with Journey is sadly like I stepped into any asian karoake bar. Or that awful Rockstar movie with Marky Mark.
Foreigner and Billy Squier are also a package, their corporate sponsor? AARP Man, that'll made you feel old.
Yeah, it was sort of surreal to see him singing Journey songs and I basically closed my eyes and just listened.. But, I just find it so amazing that he is able to emulate Steve Perry's voice ( which is so unique) is such a fantastic way.... I don't really care what he looks like ( I never thought Steve Perry was all that attractive anyway, lol ) ... he is good and if he comes to the Zoo, I'll be there.

Oh yeah, Matthew was the brother who played drums. Same difference. Still wouldn't pay money to see that.
Actually the drummer for Stryper was Robert Sweet....
THIS is Matthew Sweet..... and it would be hilarious to hear him front a classic rock band..... He's good and all, but it would be jello and peanut butter...... or like Jewel fronting the Spice Girls.... LOL
Matthew Sweet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
holy crap. I didn't even know Stryper was still going.
I left them back in the eighties where they belong.
Any of the Sweet family with Boston would be like adding Jello.
Just let it go. Boston was a great band. Let it rest in peace.
Journey - 100% sure I'm going.
Boston - ??
I think so...
'More than a Feeling'
yeah, I love Boston.

is it too much to ask that they could have someone play who's had some relevance this decade (and more original members than not)?
several of the artists retain adequate relevance to folks who have fond memories from certain prior decades.
The soon to be renovated Clayboys Arena can carry current talent quite nicely, as can the LNC at OU. I don't see a problem if the' I 'Member the 70's and 80's' Tour lands at the Zoo, or Riverwind or Firelake for that matter.
There will be other shows at the zoo. I'm sure KORN or Hinder might be back to play Kattfest again. However you find that most of the shows being booked are classic rock acts. Why? Obviously they make more money.
As far as the B-52's show goes, it's benefiting some type of "alternative lifestyle" (a.k.a. - gay) charity. You may want to bring your cheese grater, they might even put you on stage.
