Raise 'Em Up Tour - FAITHFULLY!!

http://youtu.be/tz65PvA6lSk



With a little help from Journey's Steve Perry, Keith Urban and his musical road crew – all 65 strong – posted a video thanking fans for support as his successful "Raise 'Em Up" summer tour came to a close.

Shot behind the scenes, from tour bus bunks to arena stages, the funny footage features everyone, including supporting acts Jerrod Niemann and Brett Eldredge offering up their own bit of karaoke as they lip sync to Journey's 1983 love anthem, "Faithfully."

"The Raise 'Em Up Tour may have come to a close, but the band and crew are forever yours, faithfully," Urban's team captioned the clip.

The video showcases air guitar played on a broom and cardboard box, and serious crooning from crew catering alongside guitar techs – and Eldredge! – in awesome '80s wigs. Urban, who is nominated for four trophies at this year's CMA Awards, appears late in the video, happily jamming.

The country superstar and American Idol judge kicked off his latest tour July 12 at the Calgary Stampede in Alberta, Canada, crisscrossing the country at fair dates and amphitheaters. The tour's name honors Urban's duet with Eric Church, "Raise 'Em Up," from his 2013 album Fuse.

That's so awesome!!! What a great song ...the voice, the lyrics, the music ... easily their best song of all-time. Don't know how anyone, of any age, wouldn't love it when hearing it.

Hi Gina.... I'm no music expert, but truly a timeless classic. I think this is one thing Journey fans of all persuasion can agree on.

I, also, am no music expert. But Journey fans, old and new, have proven that Journey has forged MANY timeless classics. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a Dirty Dozen. Wow, who knew that DIRTY could sound SO GOOD???
