YEE-HAH! IT'S THE TEXXAS JAM

An intimate gathering of 80,000 metalheads recently gathered at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas for the heaviest lineup yet at the world-famous Texxas Jam! The special 10th anniversary party—the longest-running stadium event in North America—featured such heavy-weights as Aerosmith, Whitesnake, Poison, Tesla and Farrenheit. At the top of the bill was Boston, the first band to ever headline twice at the now-historical Texxas Jam! With these photos, direct from the event, ROCK-PIX takes you there!

“I know exactly what Whitesnake should do and where it should go and I’ve known from the moment I conceived it.”
