Savage Arena is about to rock. The official lineup has been released for Rock the Arena, which will take place Saturday, March 19, and feature more than eight hours of entertainment.
The all-day event will be headlined by Bret Michaels, best known as the front man for Poison as well as for his “Rock of Love” reality show, winning “Celebrity Apprentice,” and an extensive solo career.
The lineup also will feature Ratt, Warrant, Winger, Lita Ford, Firehouse, L.A. Guns and Trixter.
Michaels sang lead with Poison, which is known for “Every Rose Has its Thorn,” “Nothing but a Good Time” and “Something to Believe in.”
Ratt raced up the charts with “Round and Round,” Warrant scored with “Cherry Pie,” Winger had a hit with “Miles Away,” Ford’s solo career included “Kiss Me Deadly,” Firehouse was hot with “Love of a Lifetime,” L.A. Guns blasted “Never Enough,” and Trixter is turned it up with “One in a Million.”
Rock the Arena is part of SAVAGE LIVE, a multi-event concert series recently announced by The University of Toledo. All events will be open to the public, with discount tickets available to UT students. This will be the venue’s first self-promoted concert since 2009.
