Styx and Foreigner Tour Busses Go Up in Flames

[ehrnst]

"Two tour buses for a Styx and Foreigner concert turned into vehicular torches early Wednesday afternoon in Philly ... TMZ has learned.

It's unclear how the fire started, but we're told one bus went up in flames ... and the fire spread to the second vehicle.

The buses were parked and NOT occupied when they caught fire. We're told the buses are "crew buses" and not "band buses."

The bands are scheduled to perform together Thursday in New Jersey."

I'm betting when people started yelling "Urgent! Emergency!" the band members replied, "We don't take requests!" and no one called 911 in time...

1. One of the roadies had heard "Juke Box Hero" or "Babe" for the

LAST FUCKING TIME!!

[PasadenaTrudy]

6. Whenever I hear

Jukebox Hero, I think of that Aqua Teen Hunger Force episode...

[frylock]

[frylock]

45. never heard of it

[Cheap_Trick]

40. Haven't you ever heard that song by Loverboy?

[PasadenaTrudy]

2. Too funny!

I was into Foreigner at the time their first record came out, Hot Blooded and Cold As Ice were great. Never got on the Styx bandwagon.

[TwilightGardener]

7. I never really got into Foreigner, except I still have a fondness for "Waiting

For a Girl Like You", because they never failed to play it at the roller skating rink (couple skate!).

[PasadenaTrudy]

11. I used to go ice skating

at the local rink. They always played My Sharona! That's the only song I remember them playing.

[TwilightGardener]

16. LOL--yep, "My Sharona". And our rink always played "Genius of Love"

by the Tom Tom Club. I still like that song.

[PasadenaTrudy]

24. Yeah!

They were great! I saw them live in the 80s. It was a Talking Heads show for the film Stop Making Sense.

[n2doc]

3. It's all a grand illusion anyway

Not the lights they were looking for. Maybe they can find a renegade bus to come sail away with them. Or maybe I have too much time on my hands...

23. !!!

It scares me that I know what you are talking about

[nomorenomore08]

49. Me too. And I wasn't even born when those songs came out!

But that's what a lifetime of listening to classic rock radio will do to a young man...

8. Couldn't they take the Journey bus with them?

[TwilightGardener]
