Legendary singer John Waite’s solo career may have eclipsed his Lancashire, England, rock-n-roll roots after hits like “Missing You” and “If Anybody Had A Heart” made him a top 40 favorite in the 1980s. But Waite first came to attention in his home country as lead singer and bassist of the rock group the Babys, which had a great five-year run in the seventies. Those connections would again take root in the following decade when Waite and two former Babys bandmates (along with Neal Schlon from Journey) formed the supergroup Bad English, whose 1989 hit “When I See You Smile” proved to be another chart topper. Recent tours have seen him play with Ringo Starr’s All Star Band and opening for Journey on their 2005 tour. Waite comes to Club Infinity on a solo tour this Saturday (Feb 23), with Haiku (featuring Mike McGuire) opening the show. Doors at 7pm.
