Segue (pronounced "segway")...to proceed to what follows without pause.
I don't know why they spell it that way?!?! I have JC's setlist from a
couple of years ago ...it's the way they do it!!

Wow.
Arnel sings this great. Love how he goes from his power voice to incredibly soft. Very cool and a very difficult song to sing as it was recorded. He pushes a bit on some of it, but it's live. I think this is very cool. Thanks for the link. You can hear that it's a difficult song for him in spots but he still pulls it off. I wonder how long this one will be in the set.

Perhaps they should edit the song like that. It's obvious that the crowd thought it was over at that point. I think for the most part, Journey fans aren't seven minute song fans.

ADD. Perhaps they should issue medical use marijuana permits at the door. :lol:

They obviously came to the show for the hits. One common complaint I'm seeing is Neal playing over Arnel's vocals and people feeling that Schon is trying to make himself the star of the show.. Promoters see all of those comments, especially when they are left on the venue's message boards. Tie that together with the sound issues and maybe Foreigner gets to at least co-headline next time.

Actually after the the show in Ireland, Foreigner is pretty much a co-headliner for the rest of the tour, as there are a bunch of festival and what not, even a few where Journey and Foreigner are not the main headline acts.

The song and it's effects went over and sounded way better than I thought it would. Pretty damn good, considering this
is the first live performance of the song. Unlike some others, I really like this song, but they should have just canned
that reprise on the end on the album.

Agreed on all counts. Good man.
