Bickler is going to perform at Rockingham 2017!!

As appears on the MR homepage, great Dave Bickler will be part of the line-up at this year's Rockingham in the UK!!!

He's billed as "Original Survivor vocalist Dave Bickler", which is great. Hope to see many more dates coming, let's see if his team is smart enough to understand that they should hit Europe market (that Frankie never considered, but it's their biggest audience)

That's an outrage!

Call the attorneys - Dave must be sued!

I asked Dave if there would be any other dates and his answer was "You Bet" !
This is great news !
Let's all be on the look out for the dates and venues.

Playing clubs in Europe, where you have dedicated people actually paying to see you, is way more rewarding than playing country fairs in the US where the majority is barely alive on their asses. But dont say that to frankie

The clips on you tube are nice enough to watch. I enjoy the HOY and the ICHB renditions. Does anyone have a decent boot of the whole ging?

with all the great material from the first 4 Survivor albums why is he doing JJs song which is cool if its a tribute to him. But worse off, 3-4 covers?

Based on yt videos, I got the impression like Dave was a bit rusted...couldn't let himself go 100%. Hope he gets to do a full set of dates in 2018. Nice to hear High on You, but I thing ICHB doesn't fit his voice nor image
