Last summer when the Mena/Polk County Chamber of Commerce brought ‘80s tribute band LA ROXX to town, it was a very hot day… and the band just added to the heat, thrilling the crowd with their renditions of Def Leppard, Cinderella, Whitesnake, Guns N’ Roses and more bands from the glam rock era.
They’ve opened for national acts such as Night Ranger, Kansas, Journey and other acts that dominated the ‘70s and ‘80s, which should earn them some good street cred.
LA ROXX is back for a night of hairspray and shredding. Don’t feel uptight on a Saturday Night. Come out to the Arts District on July 15, across from City Hall, and turn it up to 11. The band plays from 7-10 p.m. for a family-friendly night of big hair, denim and leather, and smokin’ entertainment.
Bring your lawn chairs, dress up in your best ‘80s gear for the contest at 7:45, and enjoy food and beverages from local vendors for the ‘80s rock edition of Music on Main. Let’s show the boyz Mena can make some noize!
