NEWS: Foreigner go on tour in June and July... WOLVERHAMPTON * LONDON * MANCHESTER !! WAITING FOR A CONCERT LIKE THIS !! Foreigner return to the UK for three concerts, their first visit since l995 with The Doobie Brothers. Formed in 1976, Foreigner is no stranger to global success since their debut self-titled album in 1977 until the present day. The band’s mix of blues, rock and pop has cemented their position as one of the most successful rock acts in the world. Their unique songwriting ability spawning hits from the quintessential hard rock of Cold As Ice, Hot Blooded and Urgent through to the heart rending beauty of Waiting For a Girl Like You and the magnificence of I Want To Know What Love Is. "I had no idea at the beginning what Foreigner would become," Mick Jones reflects. "It's amazing. Back when I started the band, I was at a crossroads in my life, whether I was going to carry on in music or get a real job. So thirty years later, we've done pretty well for ourselves. What's been great is that I've realized that the music has touched a lot of people worldwide. Unwittingly we've weaved into the fabric of people's lives. That our music has brought a lot of comfort and happiness is one of the best rewards. It's remarkable when you set out to write the songs you have no idea where they'll lead to." Now in 2006, it feels like the first time … again! Foreigner is celebrating the fourth decade with an exciting new line-up led by the group’s creative brainchild, chief songwriter, musician and producer, Mick Jones. The new line-up includes veteran members Jeff Jacobs on keyboards and Tom Gimbel on rhythm guitar, saxaphone and flute PLUS new recruits Jeff Pilson on bass, Jason Bonham on drums and Kelly Hanson taking the vocal helm. Jeff Pilson is best known for his work with Dokken, whilst Jason Bonham, son of the late John Bonham of Led Zeppelin, is one of rock’s most ferocious drummers achieving international acclaim with his bands, Bonham and Virginia Wolf. Kelly Hansen, the former frontman for the late '80s/early '90s group, Hurricane provides a new excitement to the older classic material. "This new band is really enthusiastic and very committed to reestablishing Foreigner as a major force in 2006" says Jones. "We have great musicians in this line-up plus we have a whole lot of fans that haven't seen us for a long long time. So this is the beginning of a new phase in Foreigner. I really feel the strength of the music is in the songs and this band is a very exciting line-up that will definitely deliver it. Plus on a personal note I am excited to be playing back home in the U.K. , it’s been too long!" Thursday 29th June at Wolverhampton Civic Hall. Tel: 01902 552121. Tickets £27.50 Friday 30th June at London Shepherds Bush Empire. Tel: 0870 771 2000. Tickets £27.50 Saturday 1st July at Manchester Apollo. Tel: 08710 401 8000.

March 8th: With this Big Country, memories stay with you, on DVD... "In a Big Country, dreams stay with you...", was the start of the chorus for one of the most memorable tracks from the early 80s, but as the decade was drawing to a close their hits were starting to dry up and, sadly, lead singer Stuart Adamson died of an apparent suicide in 2001.

Sensing danger, he takes action and saves his customers and friends in the self-defence killings of two-sought-after criminals. Heralded as a hero, Tom’s life is changed overnight, attracting a national media circus, which forces him into the spotlight. Uncomfortable with his new found celebrity, Tom tries to return to the normalcy of his ordinary life only to be confronted by a mysterious and threatening man (Ed Harris) who arrives in town believing Tom is the man who’s wronged him in the past. As Tom and his family fight back against this case of mistaken identity and struggle to cope with their changed reality, they are forced to confront their relationships and the divisive issues which surface as a result.

The Constant Gardener (£19.99, Universal) is out on March 13th. In a remote area of Northern Kenya, activist Tessa Quayle (Rachel Weisz) is found brutally murdered. Tessa's travelling companion, an African doctor, appears to have fled the scene, and the evidence points to a crime of passion. Members of the British High Commission in Nairobi assume that Tessa's widower, their mild-mannered and un-ambitious colleague Justin Quayle (Ralph Fiennes) will leave the matter to them, but they could not be more wrong. Haunted by remorse and jarred by rumours of his late wife's infidelities, Quayle surprises everyone by embarking on a personal odyssey that will take him across three continents to learn the horrifying truth of his wife's death. Using his privileged access to diplomatic secrets, he will risk his own life, stopping at nothing to uncover and expose the truth - a conspiracy more far-reaching and deadly than Quayle could ever have imagined. Based on John Le Carre's novel, The Constant Gardener is a breathtaking yet tragic love story told in retrospect and set against the political backdrop of an economic pharmaceutical conspiracy feasting upon the low value of life in Africa. Shifting back and forth, the romance between Justin and Tessa is wonderfully portrayed, building a vivid, gripping and heightened, yet justified, paranoia as the film develops.
