FOREIGNER

LEGENDS. This British-American rock band is probably best known for.. well basically everything they ever released. ‘I Want to Know What Love Is’ and ‘Waiting for a Girl Like You,’ which was featured in Footloose, are just a few, but the list is seriously long as hell. If you don’t know who they are (which is unlikely) your mom definitely does.

Where: Grey Eagle Casino – 3777 Grey Eagle Dr, Calgary
Time: 8 pm
