Can only hope for some "when they were good" Journey.  I don't spend enough time on FB to get requests to AL.

heh, since my first concert was Journey "when they were bad" (1979) I wouldn't mind hearing something from their Steve Perry days.  perhaps the double-play awesomeness of    "Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'" > "City of the Angels"

there were a number of requests for "wtwgJ".  "Please, pre-Steve Perry!!" someone begged. OTOH, several people wanna hear "Lights"...

you must be made to see the evil of your ways, my son.

I saw J-when-they-were-good open for ELO at NYC's Beacon Theater in '77 or so. Wasn't a fan, as they were new, so I don't have much recollection. I think we saw them as rather Santana-ish

ha! yes, I'm fully aware they were lame back then, but what can I do?  I thought they were "awesome" and will always have a fondness for them.  (of course, you already knew I was beyond hope b/c I like Rush..)

For this set, I hope we do get wtwgJ since it's so rare to hear that played on the radio.  But would it be safe to say they'd be almost a  forgotten cult band if Steve Perry with his hair products and coke connections hadn't come along?

proxy of GazWOS to the Doobs, iirc.  BOS2 Boz's fab third single from Silk Degrees -- how this failed to make the Top 40 is a puzzlement.
