I am very excited about this tour as Asia were amazing last year (the original lineup) and now Styx (who I saw kick ass twice last year) and Foreigner (who I also saw kick ass twice last year, once free in my hometown on the 4th of July, the other when they outdid Styx when they played together in May) will be touring with them.
Sure, some 80s jokes can be made, but this will be a damn good night of music! Just don't know how long each act will play.
Here are the early tour dates (only some are with all three bands, but one is in Camden,NJ ten minutes from me!):
June 14 (with Foreigner) Atlanta, GA - Nissan Pavillion
June 17 (with Foreigner) Bristow VA
June 22 (with Foreigner) Homdel NJ - PNC Center
June 23 (with Foreigner) Wantagh, NY - Jones Beach
June 28 (with Styx/Foreigner) Scranton, PA, Toyota Pavilion (Montage Mountain)
June 29 (with Styx/Foreigner) Camden, NJ, Tweeter Center
June 30 (with Styx/Foreigner) Atlantic City, NJ, Borgata Event Center
July 1 (with Foreigner) Uncasville, Ct - Mophegan Sun
July 4 Milwaukee WI - Summer fest
July 6 Detroit, MI - Renassiance Center
Aug 17 (with Foreigner) Des Moines Iowa - State Fair
Aug 31 Jim Thorpe, PA - Penn's Peak

thanks for the update. Should be a fun night in Wantagh. I saw ASIA last year and they were great!

As a minor correction, the Atlanta show is at Chastain Park Ampitheater; there is no such place as the Nissian Pavillion. Should be good for the Asia crowd and bad for those looking for an original Foreigner. Only Mick Jones is left.
I am looking forward to the Roger Waters show in May. Seen him on the Radio KAOS and Greatest Hits tour and both were fantastic. If your a Floyd fan GO! He blows away the other guys hands down!

As per the Foreigner comment, this lineup blows away any recent lineups with Lou Gramm. I've seen them 3 times since Kelly Hansen, Jeff Pilson and Jason Bonham joined and I'm not exaggerating-the audience was blown away every time.
It's not the same as the 70s-80s Foreigner, but man, it's good!
I saw Roger Waters last year, and it was good but not great. His voice is not what it was and I never need to hear DSOTM ever again. Also, the new song "Leaving Beruit" was awful.
I still enjoyed the show, especially, "Sheep" and "Set The Controls..." and Snowy White is the man, but I'll pass on seeing it again.
P.S.
I'm sure you know, I just posted those dates from a website-I have no idea what venues are in Atlanta other than Phillips Arena (is it even called that anymore) where I saw a Thrashers game once!
