Memphis, Tennesse-based hard rockers TORA TORA have confirmed that they will reunite at this year's Rocklahoma festival, the annual festival of '80's rock groups which takes place at the Catch The Fever Festival Grounds, four miles north of Pryor, Oklahoma from July 11th - 13th. The band has issued the following update regarding its appearance at the festival:
"Last week, as you know, they had the official announcement for the lineup of Rocklahoma 2008. They did the Press Conference at the Whiskey a Go-Go in L.A. Patrick Francis (bassist), along with his brother-in-law (and bodyguard!) Jeff, went to the press conference to represent Tora Tora. They had a great time, and met some great people. He also got a chance to meet up with some old friends from back in the day, such as Tracii Guns from L.A. GUNS and Brian Forsythe from KIX, along with many others.They did a Q&A; panel and Patrick (Francis - bass) answered a few questions about the Tora Tora reunion. All of the guys are VERY psyched about playing Rocklahoma!!
I've already posted the official lineup, and now I'm going to be posting an album of Patrick's photos from the L.A. trip in the photo section. So enjoy!"
The Tora Tora reunion for Rocklahoma 2008 will feature all four original members: Anthony Corder (vocals), Keith Douglas (guitar), Patrick Francis (bass), and John Patterson (drums).
