Foreigner reschedule their UK tour for May 2018
Foreigner have rescheduled their postponed November 2017 tour for May 2018.
Part of Foreigner’s ongoing 40th anniversary celebrations across the globe, the rockers will play a quartet of shows next May taking in Manchester, Glasgow, Birmingham and London.
Tickets go on sale from Planet Rock Tickets at 9am on Friday 12th May. The tour dates are as follows:
MAY 2018
Manchester O2 Apollo – Sat 12th
Glasgow Clyde Auditorium – Sun 13th
Birmingham Symphony Hall – Tue 15th
London Royal Albert Hall – Wed 16th
Mick Jones enthuses: “I never could have imagined when I set out to create Foreigner forty years ago, that we’d still be touring around the world and performing the music we love all these years later.
“I can’t express the gratitude I feel when fans share stories of how our songs have been woven into their milestones and memories over the years.”
He continued: “Playing at The Royal Albert Hall has been a childhood dream, as one of my earliest memories was attending a Gustav Holst concert, mesmerized by Sir Malcolm Sargent conducting ‘The Planet Suite.’ To perform with my band at this iconic venue decades later is a true honour.”
Unlike the postponed November shows, Foreigner will not be joined by Asia on these rearranged dates.
Foreigner release the 1CD, 20-track album ‘40’ on Friday 12th May which contains the band’s biggest hits. A double album version of the same name follows on Friday 19th May.
