John Allen also became a regular @ Livestock, a yearly music festival in Zephyrhills Park Florida with an annual crowd of 15,000.



By 1988, John Allen and his band had become a dominant force in the southeastern U.S. region, and were opening for such acts Warrant, Steel Heart, Mr. Big, and Cheap Trick to name a few.
