My wife is on the Board of a children's charity here and does some fund raising.  In the course of events, she found out one a the Board Members had some connection to the Band, Foreigner, so, with others, she got Foreigner to agree to do a concert free of charge as a fund raiser.

SO, yesterday she drags my boys around to a photo-op dealie....it was a small crowd, and after the brief festivities, my boys and Kelley Hansen, Foreigner's lead singer, kinda hung out in his big Hummer stretch limo...just the 3 of them.  They came home very happy and excited, but would have preferred to meet the Jonas Brothers!!!  ...but they really enjoyed the fireplace in the limo!!!:D

Sounds sweet but who the heck is Kelley Hansen?face4.gif The Foreigner I remember had Lou Gramm on vocals and Mick Jones on guitar. Nonetheless a brilliant move on your wife's part and nice gesture on the guys who apparently own the Foreigner name:shock:. Kinda like Journey without Steve Perry...

 

I'll bet the twins were happy as heck, huh? And the Jonas brother rock the hiz-ouse.

PAX...........there have been 23 members of the band not included the current 5 members.  The only original member still with the band is one of the founders, Mick Jones.  Kelley Hansen was originally with the 80s Metal group, Hurricanes.

Jones, the founder and only remaining original member of Foreigner, decided to take some time off before looking to form a new lineup in 2004. On July 25, 2004 in Santa Barbara, California at Fess Parker's Doubletree Resort, Jones appeared with a brand new version of Foreigner that included: Jeff Jacobs, Thom Gimbel, former Dokken bass player Jeff Pilson, current UFO drummer Jason Bonham (son of Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, who had also played with the brief Led Zeppelin reunions and his own band Bonham) and Bonham singer, Chaz West. West was hired for that show only and was eventually replaced by former Hurricane singer Kelly Hansen.

23 member over the years... insane. Thanks for the info. Looks like old Mick Jones (not to be confused with Mick Jones of the Clash) was astute enough to retain the name. Did you see the show Ken? Earplugs for the twins?toon1.gif
