ROSEBURG, Ore. -- The Douglas County Fair has announced it's concert lineup for the 2013 season.

One of the new features at this year's fair is going to be Olate Dogs, winners of America's Got Talent.
The theme for this year's fair is "Fair Time is Fun Time."
@ Fred, considering your profile says you are from Port Orford, should we start talking about your hometown too?? Grow up man!
It's sad that people think so highly of themselves that they have to make fun and name calling about people they don't even know. People should look in the mirror before they make a statement like Fred. I am not from here but I would never assume you are an idiot even though you make stupid remarks.
I think its awesome that we have good musicians that come to Douglas County. Of course your gonna have the whiners.. Lol and the "cool" people that love to talk down on south county but yet in every city and town you well run into meth heads. I was born and raised in south county and my kids will be raised in south county.
we always have crappy people perform every year. Who picks these washed up acts
It is awesome that 3 Doors Down and Whitesnake are coming here!!!!!!!! WooHoo!!!!!!!!
The last couple of years they haven't had women country singers and again this year they don't. So.... I won't be going as I look for the women country singers to plan a day at the fair. One exception..... Blake Shelton. If he was coming to the fair, I would be front and center!!! Just saying....
Jealous that I don't get to go. That's how I feel. Lol
I love that it's country and rock!! For a small town like Roseburg, I think they did pretty good on the choices..
Raise the Gate price and get some acts that arn't hillbilly music and/or ancient has ben performers .
I am going and also think if you don't like the lineup, great, you will not go and I don't have try to look past you and can enjoy the music. Love white snake, even at my age.
The line up rocks, it saved me $300 on tickets and even more on the gas and hotel rooms I won't need! :-)
If people don't like the line up, then don't go. If you can do better, then you hire them with your own money. People aren't happy if they aren't complaining about something. I for one would like to see Whitesnake. Was a fan in the 80's and yes, I have all of my teeth and I live in Roseburg. People do you realize that the fair committee has only so much to spend on concerts. If they were to get the better acts, then gate admission would have to be increased. But then again, we are in a society that expects everything for nothing.
Well there's at least ONE good one.
Three doors down. Finally a decent band! Love it!
Much better than last years choices!
I don't live in South County but I know people who do and they have ALL their teeth, dress size and age appropriately. There are people from EVERY county who others are going to see as being "beneath" them. I get so sick of seeing people saying these things on a public post. Grow up and take a look in your own mirror before putting others down. And if you don't like the lineup at the fair there's a simple solution....DON'T GO!! Simple as that. You try getting BIG name bands to come to the Douglas County Fair. Just saying.
I must be a rarity. I like three doors down and still have all my teeth
Why only 4 days?? Won't that hurt revenue? Wish we could get better performers!!
Not impressed....
line up sucks this year!!!!!! Clay Walker puts on an awesome show. So he will be the only one im excited for :) the 3 doors down crowd will be fun to go watch. You always have one great day at the fair to watch some of our finest south county people get in trouble,the way they dress,no teeth wonders,fat girls dressing like they are a size 0 lol
That is a great lineup. Is Tawny Katain gonna show up with Whitesnake?
3 Doors down! Awesome! Gonna get my tickets early.
3 Doors Down have never been here
It's a rerun line up. Wish someone that's never been here was coming this year
Sounds boring
Three doors down is still a band?
yaaaa
Solid line up.
Pretty weak :(
Whitesnake all the way! Im excited!
Worst lineup of bands ever , Its all down hill since the scorpions show. The White Snake and 3doors down should bring in the south county one tooth , neck tattoo ,meth crowd segment though. Make sure to avoid that unless your buying.....
can't wait for Dwight Yoakum and Clay Walker!
Oh my gosh! I can't wait to see Brian Ruedy!!!!
they will never be able to top the Scorpion's show
I still think the Fair board should consider bringing Grace Potter and the Nocturnals to the stage !
Im so excited 3DD;) n white snake!!! Hell ya!!!!;)
Can't wait for 3 Doors Down!!
It wasn't so bad last year! Just check the weather before you go!
I am coming home to see my boys 3DD!!!!!!!!
Yay 3 doors down yay
Excited!!!

Wednesday, August 7 - Dwight Yoakam Thursday, August 8 - Clay Walker Friday, August 9 - 3 Doors Down Saturday, August 10 - Whitesnake
