For those who like going to concerts where older bands are playing...
August 20th, here in Sheboygan, Wisconsin we have "Lakefest," where three bands are playing.

Foreigner, Tommy James and the Shondells, and Blue Oyster Cult.

Best part?
It's free!

(The food and beer aren't though.) :-)

4. Ear worm ahead! Crystal Blue Persuasion
CRYSTAL BLUE PERSUASION


Look over yonder what do you see
The sun is a-risin' most definitely
A new day is comin' people are changin'
Ain't it beautiful crystal blue persuasion

Better get ready gonna see the light
Love, love is the answer and that's all right
So don't you give up now so easy to find
Just look to your soul and open your mind

Crystal blue persuasion, mm-hmm
It's a new vibration
Crystal blue persuasion, crystal
Blue persuasion

Maybe tomorrow when He looks down
Every green field and every town
All of his children every nation
There'll be peace and good brotherhood

Crystal blue persuasion
Crystal blue persuasion.....

5. No doubt they'll play that.
Foreigner will do "Juke Box Hero" and BOC will have to do "Don't Fear The Reaper."

6. Man.
I've seen both Foreigner and BOC in concert before. "Don't fear reaper, ..." It was in the early 80's. Foreigner was playing with Loverboy if I remember correctly.

13. No - just another in a series of less hair days
:)

I had a completely unnecessary snarky remark there. Let's just say the bands are not my cup of tea and leave it at that. ;-)

15. John Tesh or Foreigner? Close call.
Edited on Wed Jun-22-05 04:06 PM by Richardo
Same goes for BOC x(

For 70s-era bands I'd prefer Tower of Power, BS&T, Steely Dan or Little Feat.

19. what is this obsession with BOC?
I did like Godzilla, though. Hmmm. Maybe that would be a cool ringtone for the phone. But maybe not. ;)
