Legendary rock band Foreigner will take the stage at Harrah’s Casino and Hotel at 9 p.m., June 8.

With over 50 million sales to their name, and six multi-platinum albums between 1977 and 1987, Foreigner’s place as one of the frontrunners of the rock genre is hard to dispute.

Their multi-platinum debut album, “Foreigner,” was released in 1977. It was an immediate hit with tracks like “Feels Like the First Time,” “Cold as Ice” and “Long, Long Way From Home,” reaching the Top 20 in the Billboard charts. The 7x platinum follow-up, “Double Vision” (1978) proved to be their best-selling album and established their credentials as arena-filling rockers. Tickets are already on-sale. Must be 21 or older to attend. www.ticketmaster.com or 800.745.3000.
