There's a local band here in Cleveland called "Breakfast Club" that is lead by lead guitarist Billy Morris who used to be in Warrant. The band plays all 1980's songs, stuff like Loverboy, Def Leppard, Bon Jovi, and all kinds of bands from the 1980's.

They also play a lot of Journey, in fact more Journey songs than those of any other of the bands that they play.

I went and saw them Saturday night. They play Lovin Touchin Squeezin in there first set of the night. But then in the second set they played 4 Journey songs in a row, Don't Stop Believin, Separate Ways, Stone In Love and Any Way You Want It. They never play two songs in a row by any other band.

My only complaint was that they didn't play the guitar solo at the end of Stone In Love. Just as it gets to the point where Neal goes into his solo they cut away and went straight into Any Way You Want It.

During Any Way You Want It the singer once changed the words from the usual "hold tight, hold tight" to "don't bite, it ain't right."

If anyone's interested in seeing the band or finding out more info on the band there are plenty of websites that give their info about them and where their playing. Just do a search of something like "Cleveland band Breakfast Club" or of "Billy Morris Breakfast Club."

On a separate note: There's some sort of a battle of the bands competition going on right now in Cleveland, and they showed a few of the bands performing in it on the local news. One of the bands was playing Any Way You Want It, and another was playing Eye Of The Tiger.
