We left off at July 17th of 1999 with a Hank Williams Jr. show at the Zoo Amp. Collective Soul at the TnT Building. August 19th, 1999 with Testament at the Tower! We start the Slipknot discussion.... Most people don't realize the first time Slipknot was scheduled to play the Tower, wasn't the one that made national news & due to the cancellation & the angry fans causing a riot. This Slipknot show, they were supposed to open for Coal Chamber & Machine Head, there wasn't enough room on the stage once backlined, & they didn't have enough room to load their gear on stage. Most people don't realize, the first three shows Slipknot was booked to play in OKC were all at the Tower Theater, the 2nd one was the only one that actually happened. The 3rd one is the one didn't happen & the end result made MTV News. Max also brought the legends Manowar aka the loudest band on earth, to the Tower Theater with Forte opening! Steve Vai returns to OKC to play the Boar's Head, this time the bus remains intact. No need for Max to come rescue the band from sketchy motels & smoldering tour busses!
