Journey Acronym Thread

Postby weatherman90 » Mon May 11, 2009 3:57 am

I don't think this has been done before, so I thought it would be a fun way to recall some Journey-related acronyms while at the same time serving as a bit of a translation guide for new members!

Maybe it's just because we discuss Journey at such great length, but it seems like no other band could possibly have this many frequently used acronyms.

First you have the standard band acronym:

JRNY = Journey

Then we can break into albums:

ROR = Raised on Radio
FTLOSM = For the Love of Strange Medicine
TBF = Trial by Fire

Of course, songs:

DSB = Don't Stop Believin'
WITS = Wheel in the Sky
WYLAW = When You Love a Woman
AWYWI = Any Way You Want It
WCTNGOF = Why Can't This Night Go on Forever
IBAWY = I'll Be Alright Without You
FITH = Faith in the Heartland
LTS = Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'
AATY = After All These Years

Can't forget about the lead singers!

SP = Steve Perry
SA = Steve Augeri
JSS = Jeff Scott Soto
AP = Arnel Pineda

Any others? I'm sure I left lots out.
Matt
