So there's this Journey trib band from Chile called Frontiers (no, not Jeremy's former band) that is excellent. These guys are very tight and each of the members is extremely talented in his own right. Journey appreciated their efforts so much that the band hosted a private M&G for them a few years ago, the video of which is viewable on YT.

And while they do very impressive covers of Journey's songs, they also do some pretty incredible covers of other 80's hits. Of all the videos I've watched of these guys, this one is hands down the best and closest cover of a song I think I've ever heard.

Oh, he's seen them. He's seen all their videos and is pretty impressed with them. As I noted above, Neal & Co. met with them and hosted a private M&G when Journey was in Chile.

"Josie's on a bacation far away". It wasn't too bad though, and that was the only complaint. Somehow, Hispanics use the b for v and vice versa. His is almost there.

This band sounds fantastic.

Same type of thing with all the Asian cover bands. Since they don't use "R" or "L" - or at least they don't pronounce them the way we do, it stands out like a sore thumb whenever they come to a word with those letters. Needless to say, "really" is just a train wreck for them! They don't like or use cheese for some strange reason, the Asians. A little cream cheese here and there but you'll never see "Szechuan Beef smothered in rich melted cheddar and Jack cheese" on any Chinese menu any time soon!

Oh, and just for the record... Chileans wouldn't be considered Hispanic. They're Latino. I might be wrong but as far as I understand it, people from the Spanish speaking countries in Central and South America are of Latino descent and Hispanic refers almost exclusively to those from Mexico.

They sound pretty good...
But I hear a lil of Jeremey & SA with AP's accent if that makes sense...

Too bad for them. Cheese rocks! Thanks for the correction. Spanish speaking doesn't always mean Hispanic. My dumb ass.
