Rock The Lake (Kelowna)

[voice of reason]

this is exactly what kelowna needs. a festival that caters to grown folks and not the flat brimmed hat no shirt jackass crowd. i hope it does well and is around for years

[lesliepaul]

I hope the organizers bring in some different bands for what appears to be another show next summer.............Chilliwack, 54-40, Big Sugar (Gordy Johnson with some "fuzz" should take care of Kguy), April Wine, Kim Mitchell, Colin James..........to name a few. Maybe throw in Led Zepagain.......cover band that has played Kelowna twice in the last 3 years.

[the truth]

lots of talent to pick from for sure, maybe bryan adams might show up hint hint, if I were the people running this thing I would give him a call and offer him the vip treatment-- ya never know one in a million shot,but worth a try

There was a poll on Twitter that I can't seem to find, giving four choices for who people would want to see next year. Honeymoon Suite was the overwhelming favourite. David Wilcox and Lighthouse were two of the other performers in the poll, I can't remember who else.

Some bands that would fit the theme, and are still playing:

Honeymoon Suite
April Wine
The Stampeders
Burton Cummings
Sass Jordan

Who else would you want to see?

Pat Benetar
Joan Jett
REO Speedwagon

I didn't go but my 16 year old daughter went on Sunday. She thought it was awesome. Need more stuff like this in Kelowna but maybe a different venue with a bit of shade and grass under foot. How about the soccer field in City Park? Kelowna needs more of this kind of thing. They used to have some good events at 8 Mile Ranch and The Bluff. Then they all pettered out. I'll probably buy at least a day pass for next year.

David Wilcox? Seriously? He did that "Laying Pipe" song and that's the only song of his that I ever heard. Lighthouse was a good band but I wonder if any of those guys are even alive. What about Platinum Blonde, Men Without Hats, Cowboy Junkies, Blue Rodeo, Triumph etc.?

[Walking Wounded]

Just check out David Wilcox on iTunes he has some great tunes, last time I saw him was 98 back in Edmonton. Awesome show! That hypnotizing boogie and bad apple are just a couple of good tunes that I can remember off the top of my head

[SmokeOnTheWater]

Who else would you want to see?

Barney Bentall, Tom Cochrane, The Guess Who, Matthew Good Band, Wide Mouth Mason, Steppenwolf
