Ex-MEGADETH Guitarist CHRIS POLAND Confirmed For ULI JON ROTH's SKY ACADEMY Concerts In L.A.
- Mar. 29, 2006
Former MEGADETH guitarist Chris Poland will participate as a "guest of honor" in the upcoming Sky Academy concerts featuring former SCORPIONS guitar legend Uli Jon Roth. The list of guests is now shaping up as follows:
Andy Aledort (Guitar World Editor) Chris Poland (OHM:, MEGADETH, DAMN THE MACHINE) Don Dokken (DOKKEN) Doug Doppler Eric Singer (KISS, ALICE COOPER) Francis Buchholz (ex-SCORPIONS) Jeff Kollman (COSMOSQUAD, JKB, GLENN HUGHES) Jeff Scott Soto (SOULSIRKUS, ex-YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, TALISMAN) Joe Stump (REIGN OF TERROR, OBSESSION) Jon Levin (DOKKEN) Jürgen Rosenthal (SCORPIONS) Phil Woodward Roy Z (BRUCE DICKINSON, HALFORD) Stuart Smith Tony Franklin (ex-WHITESNAKE, THE FIRM, BLUE MURDER) Warren DeMartini (RATT)
"The concerts will feature Uli and his all-star band as well as include many special guest artists," Uli Jon Roth's (ex-SCORPIONS) production manager Jeff Agins had previously told BLABBERMOUTH.NET. "The dates are May 24, May 26 and May 27 at the Freud Theater on the campus of UCLA. This is should be the concert of the year for melodic rock fans. Some of the guests that have shown interest have never played in the States before and will be an excellent opportunity to see this type of music without having to travel to Europe and Japan."
Tickets for the SKY ACADEMY featuring Uli Jon Roth And Friends are now on sale and can be purchased through Ticketmaster.

May 12 - Springfield, VA - Jaxx May 13 - Cleveland, OH - Beachland Ballroom May 14 - Milwaukee, WI - S h a n k Hall May 15 - Chicago, IL - House of B l u e s May 16 - New York, NY - BB K i n g 's May 19 - Concord, CA - Bourbon Street May 20 - Sacramento, CA - The Kennel Club
