AWESOME!!!

Who is that singing lead on Too Far Gone???

That song ROCKS!! It sounds NOTHING like Journey.


My bad at the end of the song it states that it's Jonathan on lead vocal and guitar. Damn that rocked!!!

This was a great show..... I say that because it was my very first Journey concert :D
Needless to say (and some 75+ shows later.....) I'm still a fan!


And for the record, Alpine Valley is in East Troy, WI, not Chicago. :D

Just looked it up and yep,it's in East Troy,WI! (I guess it's just the recording that was made by this Chicago radio station.)

Journey Tour Dates

Thanks,I'll make the correction! 8)

No problem! :D
Yeah, WLS was a Chicago radio station (is it still? not sure, since I'm not from Chicago!)

I've heard Alpine referred to as a Chicago venue before. It's close to the Illinois border, but much closer to Milwaukee than Chicago.
It's only about 40 minutes west of Milwaukee.

I've got this one, and it truly is the best example I've ever seen of Steve Perry's vocal genius and this band's musical prowess. they were just absolutely perfect on every song.

(It was Aynsley(sp?) on drums at that time though. :wink:)

I'm sorry Shania, I was thinking about the soundstage thing. :oops: Wrong thread. :?

My apologies TVL, it is Steve Smith on drums. I'd just read the Soundstage thread and still had it on my mind. :lol:

The perfection thing still applies, and I do have both, but the Soundstage is the ultimate.

Thanks to both of you for understanding my blunder. :D

This is a great post, Shania. I have a lot of Journey boots (nowhere close to CRL, though!), and this is definitely one of the best ones out there.

Yogi, "Too Far Gone" is an old Babys tune that Jonathan Cain was allowed to sing during some Escape tour shows. He also sang "Turnaround In Tokyo" at some of the earlier Japan shows, also from the Babys' catalog, I believe. Neal and Steve both sang some of their outside work during the Frontiers tour, so I guess it was only fair!

Yogi, I was at the Escape show at Reunion in Dallas, and yes, he sang all the tunes that night.

Laura (Shania), thanks ever so much for posting this boot--these boots I've found here have been so satisfying--I never knew this stuff was out there. I watched the boot someone posted of a show in Japan and I thought in my humble opinion that it was better than the Houston DVD. Lots of closeups and very sharp picture. Anyway, thanks again!! :)
