Lead guitarist and founding member of FOREIGNER Mick Jones states: “I am excited for the band to be back on the road with our old friends, STYX. A decade prior, our ‘Soundtrack Of Summer’ tour was an enormous hit, with our tour record reaching the top of the Billboard charts. John Waite will travel with us as an extra treat, contributing his #1 hits to a unique evening of vintage rock.”
Lead singer Kelly Hansen of FOREIGNER says, “I have been deeply touched by the support and response of all of our fans as we continue on our farewell tour. It’s even great that we’ll be performing these upcoming performances alongside our pals STYX and John Waite. I can’t wait to spend a tonne of gorgeous summer evenings with amazing friends, wonderful music, and classic rock across the nation.”
“We’re very excited to be sharing the concert stage with FOREIGNER and John Waite in the summer of 2024,” screams James “JY” Young, the founding guitarist of STYX. When FOREIGNER and I toured together in the past, both bands killed it and had a terrific time. I’m excited to see everyone this summer.”
“Looking forward to blazing across the USA with my band this summer,” announces John Waite. Every every hit in every single city. It’s going to be big. Fantastic evening. Be there so you don’t miss it.
According to Hansen, “We always look forward to being with our buddies in STYX,” as stated in an interview. “We’ve accomplished a great deal with them. You want absolute professionals, and that’s what they are. You want to travel with a reliable companion, not some insane, strange, egotistical, crazed crap fest where you have to deal with something new every day. Not only are they right on, but they’re also really humorous and friendly people.”
Tommy Shaw of STYX said the following on the FOREIGNER tour: “I remember listening to ‘Cold As Ice,’ and thinking, ‘Who is that?'” I was astounded. I had never encountered a foreigner before. After that, the hits just kept coming. I thought, “Man, this is somebody that we can hopefully work with eventually,” when I finally saw them live. That the music is still relevant and that we can all take these kinds of tours is wonderful.”
