I just watched the newest version of Toto do a streaming concert and it could have been better mixed but it was good to see Luke and Joseph performing (wasn't really that impressed with the other musicians). Whether live or pre-recorded, I would be interested in any band that chose to do this in lieu of actual touring. Even a one off thing with guest musicians or playing with an orchestra could be a major selling point for some.

Yeah, even if it was a one off thing it would be great. And I also love the idea of them doing a show with an orchestra!
They could do a show of deeper cuts, that way they wouldn't have to whine about people going to the bathroom or to get food/drinks during the non-hit songs.

As you guys prolly know, the band did a few shows with an orchestra (Omar was on drums then). There was a talk of a DVD, but it never materialized.

Journey's live show production values haven't been much to rave about for awhile now. They def. set the standard back in the day.

True. The Journey live shows haven't been much to write home about for the last 20 years. Maybe the new management will put a little money into the shows since that is where they make their money. Put some money and new ideas into the shows and you could attract buzz and more people wanting to go to the shows which means more money for Journey. They have been showing up and doing the dirty dozen and collecting the cash which is fine, but they could make a lot more cash with just some effort. Of course, this starts with Journey touring alone as the main event by themselves and NOT with another big act. We love the songs, but something surprising in the concert could add to the experience.

Let's get this new lineup on stage - in front of a live, vaccinated audience. The new rythm section alone is going to be a cool change.

Nothing wrong with embracing technology in the meantime. When in doubt, ask yourself "what would Herbie do right now?" He probably would have had Journey lead the way with all these socially distanced shows.
