But the audience, the fans don't get the truth. There's not even an original member in that band, and they go out as FOREIGNER, without telling the prospective audience that there's no original members. As legal as it may be, it is completely dishonest to the fans, and the fans are taking a slap in the face, just like they are with that fake FOREIGNER that's out there. "Įarlier this month, Farner told John Beaudin of about GRAND FUNK RAILROAD celebrating the 50th anniversary of "We're An American Band" on tour this year: "You mean the GRAND FRAUD tour? Yeah, the GRAND F-A-U-X RAILROAD. "I think if that could happen, there's only one person stopping that from happening. I was praying for THE BEATLES to get back together, but there was something in there that just wouldn't allow that… The legendary 74-year-old rocker, who turned to Jesus in the late 1980s and became a born-again Christian, added: "Maybe if enough people prayed sincerely, that prayer would be answered.

"Just on the money aspect of it - just on the money aspect of it - Melvin could set his boy up for life. "I don't wanna forecast any doom or gloom, but every time I've made the suggestion - and they know I've been open to it for all these years to go back out - we'd split it three ways like we did," he continued. And I'm in touch with the love that could make millions happy again if the three of us got back on that stage. Check me out.' God… Thank you, Lord, that where I'm at, I can see through the glass - even though it's a dark glass, I can see clearly through the other side. People do that they'll just flop over and, 'Oh, yeah, man. But they took that and did something else with it. There was that anointing on them, like there was on Elvis.

Joining Brewer and Schacher on tour are newer additions to the band, singer Max Carl, guitarist Bruce Kulick and keyboardist Tim Cashion.Īsked in a new interview with Artists On Record Starring ADIKA Live! if he has ever had the urge to call Don and tell him that they should mend their differences and go back on the road together, Mark said (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): "I have said it in person. Led by original members, drummer Don Brewer and bassist Mel Schacher, GRAND FUNK RAILROAD is slated to play several headlining shows this spring as well as serve as the "special guests" of Kid Rock for two hometown shows in Michigan at Little Caesars Arena on Friday, July 14 and Saturday, July 15.
