Special guest in Austin tonight

[Michigan Girl]

and for the comment that said arnel not acknowledging rolie:
check mark 3:52 of this clip.

you can clearly see arnel clapping his hands from afar. he was about to approach rolie but didnt have the chance.
rolie's back was turned.

I don't believe that anyone was serious about that comment!! I would think that
no matter what ones feelings are of AP as frontman, there is one
thing that cannot be denied he is/seems like a great human being!!!
I don't think the man knows the meaning of hateful!!! :wink:

Does anyone think that Gregg Rolie could be part of this "conceptual album" that Neal referred to? And could that "concept" be past and present members?

Interesting.

Wouldn't surprise me at all. I doubt that idea was part of the original thought, but now that they've recently touched base, it might become part of the project.

But even if Journey went away for awhile, I'd still love to see Piranha Blues II or another Abraxas Pool. Bring in 'whoever' for guest spots, including you-know-who.

Here's my Youtube of the first minute and a half of Just the Same Way shot from the front row. Video is bouncy cause I was hiding from the security Nazi; audio is pretty good. Deen's beautiful voice comes through loud and clear.

That is awesome Linda, love your av too! Deen sounds beautiful as always! I'm a Deen loon :D lol

You and me both! Greg's getting a little pitchy on that one. But, beautiful to hear LIVE none the less, love that song! Thanks Linda. That's Deb's head dancin' up a storm in the corner of the shot there, isn't it?!

Thanks, Mel & yes, Deb, that's Debbie's head ... and Ken's right at the beginning. We were all lined up on the front row right in front of Ross ... I was trying to hide behind them as I filmed because security was rightthere in front of us ... got busted after 90 seconds anyway.

Apparently Deb and I got flashed up on the big screen singing along with Don't Stop Believin' too ... one of my colleagues stuck his head in my office yesterday and said, "I hear you were at Journey in Austin last night ..." One of the college staff members who was at the concert spotted me on the screen and couldn't wait to rat me out ...

Wow, what a treat for GR to show up and sing!

I wonder how he felt detuning his keys down -1 ? Deen is on spot every fucking time,he should get paid extra. He is Journeys insurance policy.Deen C is on your side everytime

Put Rolie on the next album and it will outsell Revelation.

I think Rolie has made it pretty clear that at this point in his career, he's more into performing music like Oye Como Va rather than songs like After All These Years.

Yes but what a way to cap off the career. Rolie on the last (two?) albums. No problem with him not touring extensively with them. Just him guesting would be a treat.

It really would be. Sadly, I think Gunny is correct. We're not going to see Gregg anytime soon....unless it's a one off guest appearance...

+1. He deserves a big fat raise!

That brought a tear to my eye. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

That brought a tear to my eye, too. I was only lucky enough to see Journey live when Gregg was in the band a couple of times and this video sure brings back memories. I got to know Gregg & his wife Lori back in the 1980s when we had the Journey softball team. Gregg was the team pitcher and we'd hang out at games. He and his family are the best. I'm sorry we lost touch.

Me 3.... dang, I am still SO sorry to have missed this! Happy B-day to you, Deb! I'm happy you and Linda were there!!!! Thanks for sharing, Lora... Gregg has always seemed like a very down to earth guy!

[SoonerThunder]

And wow, I can't believe anyone that purports to be a fan of Journey wouldn't know Just The Same Way... hell, it's even on the greatest hits compilations!

I know, right? The next night when they kicked into "Just the Same Way" in OKC (no GR, dammit), I'm going apeshit, and everybody around me is like "Whut?"

Damn casual fans.
