RocHard and I went to see Journey at the November show in Vegas at the Aladdin theater. The show was OK, if you've never seen Journey live I'd recommend it.
HOWEVER,
Maybe I'm being too rough on the new singer. I've seen Journey with Steve Perry. The new singer hit the notes, but had the look and feel of a Michael Bolton wannabe. And he forgot some words. Journey is not a place where it's safe to forget words, most of the crowd knows ALL the words. Hell, we've had 20 years to learn them.
I saw Tommy Shaw once open for Rush and they were great. I don't know if he's back with Styx but I'd still go.
And REO Speedwagon, well I'd see them if they were opening for someone good. I mean I'd go out of my way to get there early enough to see them.
I plan on seeing this show.
