FOREIGNER, WHITESNAKE and JASON BONHAM’S LED ZEPPELIN EVENING, are getting into the holiday gift-giving spirit early with the announcement of their 2018 29-city summer “Juke Box Heroes Tour”, produced by Live Nation. Nothing warms up the chilly holiday season like the promise of a hot summer tour, and concert tickets make the perfect gift.
The legendary artists will cross the U.S. starting Friday, June 15, 2018 in Bangor, Maine at Darling’s Waterfront Pavilion. All three bands are led by Englishmen Mick Jones, David Coverdale and Jason Bonham who are part of the fabric of British rock, and will bring a summer of great music across the country. FOREIGNER‘s 40th-anniversary tour was one of last summer’s best-selling runs.
Tickets for the “Juke Box Heroes Tour” go on sale to the general public beginning Friday, December 8 at 10 a.m. local time at LiveNation.com. Tickets for FOREIGNER VIP packages including meet-and-greets with the band will be available at ForeignerVIP.com.
Citi is the official presale credit card for the “Juke Box Heroes Tour”. As such, Citi cardmembers will have access to purchase presale tickets beginning Tuesday, December 5 at 10 a.m. local time until Thursday, December 7 at 10 p.m. local time through Citi‘s Private Pass program.
“I’m excited to join forces with my fellow U.K. countrymen, David Coverdale and Jason Bonham, for what’s sure to be a rockin’ summer tour in the States,” says FOREIGNER founding member and lead guitarist Mick Jones.
As WHITESNAKE lead singer David Coverdale says, “We are truly excited and looking forward to playing in 2018 with our friends, FOREIGNER and Jason Bonham, on their North American tour.”
Says Jason Bonham, “Being part of FOREIGNER‘s 40th-anniversary tour last summer was wonderful. Opening a show like that was very special to me, so when Mick asked if I’d do it again in 2018, I said yes without hesitation. I’m excited that WHITESNAKE will be filling out the middle slot this time as I’ve known David since I was 14 years old. It’s going to be a WHOLE LOTTA FUN!”
