TRIUMPH UNITES FOR ROCKLAHOMA
PRYOR, OK - The classic Triumph line-up of Rik Emmett, Mike Levine and Gil Moore could not have selected a better way to reunite after a two-decade absence in North America with what will undoubtedly be a show-stopping headline appearance at Rocklahoma 2008 on Friday, July 11, 2008.
"Triumph is very excited to be performing at Rocklahoma this summer and I am really looking forward to being on stage with Gil and Rik again" bassist Mike Levine said.
Triumph, formed in 1975, built a large and loyal fan base by the late seventies on the strength of their incredible stage show, a non-stop touring schedule throughout Canada and the United States, and the success of their classic albums, "Rock & Roll Machine" and "Just A Game."
In the 1980's, Triumph became a force to be reckoned with, as a string of gold/platinum-certified albums --- "Allied Forces," "Never Surrender," and "Thunder Seven," and radio hits "Fight the Good Fight," "Magic Power" and "Lay It On The Line" --- solidified the band as one of rock's top concert attractions.
With their music continuing to live on during their absence, fans will now finally get the opportunity to catch this live-legend on stage once more.
Brad White, President of Creative Entertainment Unlimited and talent buyer for Rocklahoma, commented "Triumph is well known for laying it on the line. It is a true honor to have Triumph re-unite and select Rocklahoma. Friday's performance will be one that the audience will not soon forget!"
Over 96 bands will be performing on three giant stages over Rocklahoma's four days. Rocklahoma's current lineup on the main stage is:
Thursday (Opening Night for those who have bought three day tickets) Jet Boy, House of Lords, Vain, Enuff Z Nuff, L.A. Guns featuring Tracii Guns, Sebastian Bach and Bret Michaels.
