The band was formed in 1976 by British guitar player Mick Jones. Bassist Jeff Pilson said that it feels like a good time to say goodbye to Foreigner's fans.
"The objective here is to go out on a high note, which not all bands do," Pilson said. "I'm sure there's a lot of bands that they simply need the money, so I can't begrudge them for doing that. But because we're in a position where we don't have to worry about that, we're going to go out on a high note and make sure that this legacy is preserved with all the respect and integrity that it deserves."
