During a concert, Journey breaks out More Than A Feeling by Boston...

I would love to see Neal open with that guitar riff, and then scream the guitar in the bridge.


I think the crowd would eat it up! Soto would be great belting this song out as well, even if he couldn't totally hit those cosmic high notes.

So, am I a off, or do you like the idea?

Love the song Knox but wouldn't want Journey to do covers until the band has reestablished itself. I didn't have any problem with them doing covers for the ROR tour because I thought it was fun to hear and there was no doubt at that time that Journey was a musical force. If they did that now though, before they make a mark as Journey Reincarnated, I think it would make them seem like sort of a lounge act just out touring to entertain people.

I got the idea from watching JSS do covers on You Tube. He got a great reaction from doing a bit of Who's Crying Now.

I don't think one cover would mess them up, but I understand what you are saying.

To me, doing a cover is showing great respect to the artist you are covering, not taking anything away from your own music.

Ditch Open Arms, and put it in

I would love to see it only because I love the song, would love to hear Jeff sing it, but I think most Journey fans would say no.

nope, If I want a boston riff, I would want Tom doing it. Same as if Boston flirted with Stone in Love... I would go wtf...

Rick

I still like it

LAME

Lame
Boston is Boston. Journey is Journey. Having said that, I did like when they did Reach Out by the Four Tops, but it fit with the Raised on Radio theme.

No covers period.

OKAY!!! So, it's not my best post

Lame ....

Cooler - Boston and Journey tour together with new friggin material of this year!

Cool. I'd like a 2-3 minute medley of artists in their genre. Say Foreigner, Toto, REO and one or two others. Play a medley of radio friendly hits from back in the day and the crowd would eat it up. Much moreso than say......Every Generation.

now i realize that this isn't the def lep site, but the rock of ages medley on the re-released hysteria album was excellent. they threw in some
covers with that performance and it rocked! but thats just IMO.

As good as Jeff is, I don't think he'd be able to do that song justice. Heck, even Brad Delp can't come close to hitting those stratospheric notes anymore (Fran Cosmo does, though...).
