The name of the album and tour was inspired by Richie Sambora, who announced the band as "The Mighty O.A.R." when introducing them at the Red Rocks Ampitheatre several years ago. "The term wraps up who the band is in 2019," adds DiPizzo. "It feels good to us." The group's main goal is to make showgoers leave feeling better than when they came, and the upcoming Seattle performance promises to do just that.
