Flaming Lips to headline




TULSA -- Recent Grammy-award winners and Oklahoma natives The Flaming Lips, along with Tulsan Leon Russell, will headline this year's Diversafest in Tulsa, organizers announced Tuesday.
Diversafest, commonly known as Dfest, will be July 27-28. This year's festival has been moved to Tulsa's Historic Blue Dome District.

Dfest will bring about 30,000 fans to downtown Tulsa for the sounds of more than 130 bands from throughout the region, organizers said. The two-day festival spans 20 genres of music.

It is an official Oklahoma Centennial event.

Tickets can be purchased beginning March 9 at Oklahoma Event Tickets - OKC Tickets.com.

Wow, that's great for DFest. That is what this "festival" needs to really become a regional draw each summer like a SXSW in Austin. I wish I was going to be around but I will be in Denver...
