    Combined, they’ve sold more than 250 million albums worldwide. They’ve had 36 number one and Top 10 smash hit singles that are still being spun on classic rock radio more than 500,000 times every year. They’ve performed thousands of concerts worldwide to countless crowds. Now it’s time for three of the most legendary names in rock to come together for a massive U.S. Summer tour.

    Styx and Foreigner, with very special guest Don Felder (former Eagles guitarist/songwriter) will join forces for the “The Soundtrack of Summer”, now coming to Newark’s Prudential Center on Thursday, June 26 at 7 p.m.

    “The addition of Don Felder to ‘The Soundtrack of Summer’ tour means that the combined album sales of all three acts, as well as all the bands they were once members of, is well north of 200 million worldwide,” declares STYX guitarist/singer James “JY” Young. “Certainly by this yardstick, ‘The Soundtrack of Summer’ has got to easily be in the Top Ten three-act concert tours to ever hit the road. ‘Renegade’ ‘Juke Box Heroes’ partying at the ‘Hotel California’ will be your slammin' soundtrack of a rockin' hot summer. What more could you ask for after this crazy cold winter we are having?”

    “As longtime friends, we’re happy to join Styx and Don Felder for the ultimate soundtrack of summer,” says Foreigner founding member and lead guitarist Mick Jones. “Our combined songs are some of America’s favorite summer anthems, and we’re excited to be bringing them to our fans across the country.”

    “This tour will have the best vocalists and guitarists on the road today,” exclaims Don Felder. “The sheer volume of our combined catalogs is massive and should satisfy any rock & roll fan, and rock them until they can’t walk out of the place.”

    Tickets are $75, $49.50, $35, $20 (includes facility fee) and are on sale now via Ticketmaster.com, Charge by Phone (800-745-3000) or any Ticketmaster outlet.
