Scorpions In The USA

The first North American dates are here for the Scorpions’ 2015/2016 world tour celebrating the band’s 50th anniversary. The act is bringing along Queensrÿche as its special guest on the U.S./Canada excursion.

The new dates arrived just a few days after the U.K. release of the Germany hard rock band’s new album, Return To Forever. Marking the act’s 18th studio album, the LP is Scorpion’s first new set of tunes in nearly five years. Return To Forever is officially due out in the U.S. March 3.
