I could not agree more. "CFTB" remains my favorite song off Revelation. Neal wrote it and was completely excited about it when the CD came out. Why they've let this jewel slip off the set list I don't know.

Agreed. There were a bunch of great cuts off Revelation. This is one of my favorites and fits nicely into the tired old dirty dozen setlist. I wont go see Journey live anymore for two reasons, the setlist flat out sucks and cost of tickets. The second I might ignore if they mixed up their setlist more often.

Arnel, Schon and Deen-O looked like they were having a blast this whole show. Wish I had this on CD or DVD...well, both. Just terrific energy.

It shows how musical and rocking and energized Journey can be.

Seems to me one band member is holding them back from this.

Jon was fairly animated in 2008; Journey's resurgence was infectious.

I agree with the opening post. The Graspop concert was excellent and I've been desperately seeking a quality rip of the concert for about 3 years. But so far, Don has failed me. :lol:

'Change...' is also a top fiver for me. It and 'Wildest Dream' should be set list staples, no question.

Kevin Shirley said he had to re-arrange this entire song. The original version, as the band brought it to him, made no sense.

i think it's a moot point that Journey NEEDS a heavy-handed producer to clarify their ideas.

I agree.

I definitely agree that Journey needs/needed more of the newer stuff played at their concerts, especially songs written and recorded with the current lead singer. But as we all know, that doesn't float the gravy boat.
