Love that game! :twisted:

Whenever we're at a restaurant I let my 4 year old play to keep him occupied. Sometimes he'll want me to play to beat a level. Then when he want's it back I usually put up a pretty good fight. :lol: Addictive as hell! :lol:

Listen to it and give us your thoughts.
'City of Hope' was entirely too formulaic and Journey-by-the-numbers for an opening track, but its saving grace was that badass continuous riff. Neal's playing the wrong parts live. If anything, it should be the high pitched-wailing shit that's being looped through his guitar.


I want to be nice this tour and not say anything bad about youtube videos as we know they're not an accurate representation of the real audio.

That said...How much stuff is being auto generated here? Arnel moves the mic away from him and the vocals just keep going with all the reverb and they even abruptly double at some points.
At 1:19 the vocals go to shit and the Guitar just goes all weird. At 2:30 it' just a mess.

The crowd seemed very..polite.

They definitely have a lot of kinks to work out here.

How am I going to make it through these songs when they play here? I'll have to make sure my droid is charged so I can play some "Angry Birds". :D

Yeah something about bashing things to bits is fun! :lol: :shock:

Yeah, ok. :lol:
The song definitely has some kinks to work out or they need to just drop it from the set entirely.
I think the crowd reaction at the end was pretty boisterous.

Yeah, 'Only the Young' needs to go as well. They butcher the fucking song with the prerecorded synthesizer/rhythm guitar shit.

Yeah, and Arnel sings his Asian ass off on this one, but they're fucking it up royally with the Tinkerbell synthesizer/rhythm guitar.

Nah, I'd say it's impossible.... especially given the caliber of Journey's assholes (chief of whom is thankfully retired). :lol:

Sorry this is not Journey Thanks Steve your stupidity has ruined a legacy


And it is not Styx without Dennis, Foreginer without Lou, Van Halen with Sammy ( :shock: ), ACDC with out Bon, Meatloaf with Jim, Chicgao with Peter, Bad Company with Paul, Asia without Wetton, Kiss with VV, Sabbath with Ozzy, The Eagles with Randy, Toto with Bobby,
and if y I can name more. But my point, I gald those groups above never released another cd after those people left. They were washed after them both or either commerically or critically. Good call there Froy!


never released another CD? Did your car hit some Black Ice and give you permanent memory loss?


According to Froy, anyone who has a member quit, the group is done.


Dennis quit STYX ? News to me Lou quit Foreigner news to me. Sammy and Van Halen ok whatever/ Bon Died no issue, The rest you named are irrelevant.
Journey should never release anything again without Perry, Styx forget it they are destroyed thanks to Gowan and Foreigner has been irrelevant for almost 20 years, The music speaks for itself case and point the Gowan GI version Horrific is all I can say


Whew, thanks for explaining yourself so succinctly. Now I know to safely skip ahead past any future posts
