TRIPLE BILL OF JOURNEY/FOREIGNER/STYX:
After a 20 minute change, the lights went down and it was time for Foreigner and boy did they please this happy old time crowd. Their sound was once again pretty much perfect with with Mick Jones' guitar work the star of the show. They played pretty a much an expected greatest hits setlist which left every old time Foreigner fan happy. I wouldn't say I was a Foreigner fan but these guys really delivered. Sure the old timers would probably say it's not the same without Lou Gramm but I think the current singer Kelly Hansen does an amazing job on the mic to be honest. He hits exactly the same notes that Lou used to only with way more power. Although i must admit he doesn't sing I Want To Know What Love Is quite as good as Lou used to, but the rockers he nails. Urgent was killer as was Cold As Ice. Only song missing from their set was I've Been Waiting For a Girl Like You which was strangely omitted not that I cared but I'm sure a few Foreigner die-hards did! their set ended with a rousing and a seemingly extended version of their hit anthem Jukebox Hero. These guys maybe old but they still know how to rock.
