GREENVILLE– The Board of Directors for the Darke County Agricultural Society are pleased to announce that Foreigner will perform at the 156th Great Darke Fair on Aug. 19, 8 p.m.
Foreigner is universally hailed as one of the most popular rock acts in the world, racking up scores of smash hits, multi-platinum albums, and sold out concert tours.
From Cold As Ice to Hot Blooded, Urgent to Jukebox Hero, Waiting For A Girl Like You to the chart topper I Want To Know What Love is, Foreigner’s thrilling mix of blustery blues and impeccably crafted pop continues to captivate generation after generation of music fans.
Today, over 70 million albums later, Foreigner is an ensemble of talented musicians each adding their individual credentials to the mix to make the band stronger and more powerful than ever.
The band is consistently in the Top 15 at Classic Rock Radio. As a result of the depth of the catalogue, the band gets more airplay at this important format than, Tom Petty, Bon Jovi, Eric Clapton, Fleetwood Mac, Def Leppard, U2, Bruce Springsteen, Tina Turner and most of its peers.
Foreigner ‘4’ spent more weeks on the Billboard chart at No. 1 than any album by AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, U2, The Who, The Rolling Stones, Genesis, Phil Collins, Eric Clapton and any artist in Atlantic Records’ 60 year history.
Foreigner has 9 top 10 hits (that’s just one less than The Eagles, as many as Fleetwood Mac, and more than Journey, Crosby, Stills and Nash, ZZ Top, Bad Company, The Steve Miller Band, Alice Cooper, Genesis, Def Leppard, David Bowie, Bob Dylan, Robert Plant and a whole lot more).
Their hit single, ‘Waiting For A Girl Like You’ was No. 2 on the singles chart for 14 weeks. This is a record in the history of Billboard magazine. It helped drive Foreigner to No. 49 on Billboard’s Hot 100 All Time Top Artists Chart. To put that in perspective, The Eagles are No. 54, Fleetwood Mac is No. 73 and Aerosmith is No. 90.
All seats are reserved with Track seating at $25 each and Grandstand seating at $23 each. Tickets go on sale March 24, 9 a.m., via internet (www.darkecountyfair.com ) and by phone, 800-736-3671/548-5044 using a debit or credit card.
