We’re interested in being a world wide band. It’s getting exciting. We’ve got so many new, young fans. There’s a whole new world of kids out there who dig our stuff. They’re so open to everything – the rock stuff, the jam stuff, I see no end in sight to this band. It’s all coming full circle.

It was an interesting article, and I feel it worth mentioning that something tells me that Journey was a bit surprised or caught off guard by the diversity of the fanbase in recent years and largely encouraged by the attendance on this solo outing they're doing. I know that what struck me in Tahoe just this last month was that the number of people I saw that were younger than me (I'm 32), and it wasn't just a bunch of baby boomers. These were a new generation of listeners digging this band as they are today.

So yeah, I hope they keep on going. Was definitely a cool read.
