I see Foreigner has some tour dates this year if circumstances permit but wondering who is even in the band anymore, last time I saw them with Styx I hardly recognized anybody

They sounded great though

They probably think the methheads who’d still see them at this late
juncture wouldn’t notice, but apparently you’re ahead of the game...

The current Foreigner is original member Mick Jones and bandleader with others. I went to the wiki page on Foreigner and was somewhat surprised to see that Jason Bonham was with the band for a while.

I lost interest in them sometime after their 3rd album Head Games was released in
September of 1979.

I took a flyer on their first album back before anyone, including me, had heard of them. I'm sure I still have the vinyl and it's probably in great shape, I doubt I played it more than 5 or 6 times. Saw them once at a massive stadium show and they
definitely the least interesting second bill I have ever seen.

I saw them on their first U.S. tour circa 1977-78 at a cheap radio station-sponsored show at the Uptown Theater in Chicago, and not long thereafter they were headlining baseball stadiums...

what about Styx what's with the bass player I have seen them ten times and the guy with AIDS is like hey I am here to play a few songs. It's happened every single time.
