Foreigner brings shows to the web

Postby Don » Sat Jun 18, 2011 2:28 am

I love Foreigner, these guys work their marketing like no other. Even if they're not getting anywhere, you can't fault their effort.


“We realize, despite extensive touring, Foreigner is unable to reach all our fans from around the world. Or maybe they are coming to your town but you can’t afford a ticket in these rough times. Now is your chance to see what they do best — perform live!”

Foreigner has announced a plan to bring the live concert experience to fans anywhere in the world via webcast, utilizing a unique, Do-It-Yourself strategy.

Instead of presenting one concert in an expensive, multi-camera style, Foreigner aims to share many shows over the coming months by using a budget-minded, single-camera view. The concert webcasts are being filmed from a fixed camera in the middle of the venue, in an effort to create a more authentic concert-going point of view.

While it’s not a front row seat, at least nobody’s going to shove your date aside or spill beer on you.

I'm a big Foreigner fan and, while their live shows aren't bad, it always seems to me like they're missing something whenever I've seen them play in front of an audience.

Why can't / won't Journey do this, or would they then have to pay Perry?
