1980 TEXXAS JAM Mini Poster
The 1980 Texxas Jam, held on June 21, 1980, at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas, Texas, was a legendary, sun-scorched festival. The epic rock lineup featured the Eagles, Cheap Trick, Foreigner, Sammy Hagar, April Wine, Point Blank, Le Roux, and Christopher Cross. Tickets cost just $16.50.
The 1980 festival is famous for its sweltering heat, legendary performances, and unique lineup choices.Ā
The Lineup and Atmosphere
The stadium was packed with die-hard rock fans who endured extreme, triple-digit temperatures. Among the heavy-hitting sets from the Eagles and Sammy Hagar, yacht-rock pioneer Christopher Cross made a memorable (and somewhat jarring) appearance right in the middle of a hard-rock roster.Ā
