RATT Is Playing Sweden Rock Festival

RATT has been added to the Sweden Rock Festival lineup. This will be the band's only European date. Aerosmith and KIX are playing the fest, too. It's set for June 7-10. I could go, but at this point I wouldn't be able to find any friends to go along - it would just be too expensive for most. Maybe someday.

Very impressive lineup. Ministry, Helix, Saxon. Sucks. When kids are outta college, most of these bands will be "done". Would be a great Summer vacay

Ian Hunter (leader of Mott the Hoople) , Kix, Aerosmith , Scorpions, Steel Panther, & the rest are bands that couldn't get a gig bigger than a 500 seat club. And, I really, really liked Helix.

Sorry, but Aerosmith & Scorpions are the only acts on here that normally play to over 5,000 fans at a shot. And that's sad.

WOW! What a line-up! Aerosmith, Scorpions, RATT and KIX alone sounds like a Bill Graham Monsters of Rock Festival circa 1986! Add Saxon, Ian Hunter (of Mott the Hoople and "Cleveland Rocks" fame), Gotthard (RIP Steve Lee), Great King Rat, Phil Campbell & The Bastard Sons, The Dead Daisies and Electric Boys and you've got a recipe for an unforgettable Summer Vacation, as Kixchix suggests!

The poster says 10 more bands are still to be announced. Here's who I would get (most from the Sweden area or Europe save for a couple of bands from the U.S. and Canada):

Hardcore Superstar, Reckless Love, Shiraz Lane, NiteRain, Confess, Löve Räzër, Tempt, Burning Point, Striker, Catalano plus a few more -- Heavy Tiger, The Tip, The Defiants, Ghost and last but not least, The Tip!



I'll be playin' the Lotto for this one and if I hit it big, I'll be chartering that G650 ER (Extended Range) to Bring Back Glam! with all our beloved BBG!ers!
