Foreigner, Kansas & Europe [CANCELLED] at Veterans United Home Loans Amphitheater

One of the most successful rock acts of the 1970s and '80s, Foreigner was formed in 1976, and was so named because its members were based in both the UK and the US. The group was originally formed by ex–Spooky Tooth member Mick Jones, ex–King Crimson member Ian McDonald, and American vocalist Lou Gramm. With worldwide sales of more than 80 million records (including 37.5 million records in the US ), Foreigner is now one of the world's best-selling bands of all time. Their self-titled 1977 debut album was an instant hit, launching the singles "Feels Like the First Time", "Cold as Ice" and "Long, Long Way from Home", and setting a precedent for albums to come. The band's biggest hit is the 1984 single "I Want to Know What Love Is", which topped charts all over the globe, including in the United Kingdom and United States. Their 1981 power ballad "Waiting for a Girl Like You" did similarly well, peaking at number two on the US chart for a record-setting 10 weeks. Over the years, the band has experienced a number of line-up changes, but all of Foreigner's original surviving members have taken to the stage with the current iteration at various times.
