MR

I'm just hours away now from leaving for the Moondance Jam in Walker! Journey, Sheryl Crow, Kansas and Foghat headline the first night, Whitesnake, Judas Priest, and Lita Ford on the second, and Yes, Asia, Grand Funk Railroad on the third. I can hardly contain the excitement!

This will be my third Journey show, and my first outdoor Journey show (with a brand new camera to boot!) Watch my site (Melodic Rock Concerts), along with my Twitter page for the latest. I'll try and get the Journey stuff up as soon as I can, and I might even be able to twitter the set list!

See you there Matt. I love Moondance

Enjoy it, man. Looking forward to your pictures. If you end up Twittering the set list, I'll try to bring it over here to MR for a live thread update.

Safe travels Matt. Have a great time and take lots of pictures.

Have fun. Keep us posted. Take some videos.

Excellent! I'll make an effort to do just that.

Have fun, be safe. Watch out for deer!

My husband always tells me that when I'm traveling.

Thanks!!

I hear that from my parents on a regular basis. When I first read it, I instantly heard my Dad saying it in my head.

That sounds like a killer festival. I wish I could be there.

Yes have a great time and bring here from twitter cause I have not quite figured out the twitter thing!

Don't forget to give us a good review on YES/ASIA from the Festival's finale on Saturday Night.

I wonder what's impressive. Did Friga get some new toys? It's usually pretty much the same every time, except the Faz gets played here and the Whale gets played in Europe.

Of course that's not all. Why do you think they would ever open with Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin' and close with Open Arms? I cringed just typing that.

We are playing tonight at 11:00 pm . Looking forward to getting back on the stage
I'll keep you updated as I was from Europe...
See you soon,
Neal

pretty cool that they are playing one more.

Sure hope not!! Enough to make me sick!!

It was a great show at Moondance. Despite the freezing cold and the rain, and a starting time of 11pm Journey treated us to a superstar performance. They were on stage for nearly two hours and provided a primarily rocking set. Arnel looks even fitter than last year, leaping and running around on stage like a kid but without missing a single note.

I managed to photograph about three quarters of the show from the pit and I'll post some of those soon. Matt (Weatherman) also photographed most of the set I think so I think there'll be quite a few pics between us.

Man.. It was COLD... felt like snow -rain the whole show. Thought it was great except the freezing fingers. Thanks to all who withstood the weather. We got in at 6:00 am this morning. just opening the eyes.

Thanks all,
Neal

That's what impressed me about Arnel.

Looking forward to the pics Marty.

BTW, nice to hear from Neal.

It's almost 11pm PST and not one goddam video up. WTF so slow?

Fuck this kind, gentle side of Steve. I want it right now!!!!

With that kind if weather, what are the odds that Arnel is sick already, one week into the tour?

Kudos to Matt for keeping us in the loop
