A double shot of hard rock is headed to Elmont as the Scorpions bring their “Rock Believer Tour” to UBS Arena at Belmont Park on Sept. 7 with Whitesnake, currently on its “Farewell Tour,” in tow.
“After the amazing start we’ve had with our residency in Las Vegas, it’s about time to come back for a real tour to rock the U.S. like a hurricane again. We can‘t wait to see all you Rock Believers out there!” said Scorpions lead singer Klaus Meine in a statement.
Whitesnake lead singer David Coverdale added, “Once again it’s time to feel the sting of the Scorpions and the bite of the Whitesnake!!! Can’t wait!!!”
