Sure, a big reason for that was because most drives were around 3 hours, and involved a day of vacation to see them. But do I need to see them play "Wheel In The Sky" one more godforsaken time? And no offense to Steve Augeri, but nearly every time I've seen them he's ducked high notes and struggled on others, so as a singer, maybe that just bothers me more than it would most people.
THAT BEING SAID - I still think the Generations tour is a great step in the right direction. I think ANY band that plays more than 4 new songs in a set (especially with NO radio support) is certifiably insane. But it looks like Journey is really pushing the material on this record and trying to make this more than a greatest hits show.
It's the only thing they COULD have done at this point. Because another greatest hits tour, especially when paired with some past their prime 80's band, would have sent them directly to the corn dog circuit next year. Before you know it they'd be sharing bills with The Doobie Brothers and Kansas at the Dublin Ohio "Soy Days" Festival or whatever.

Journey is past and present. If I were a fan of pre-Perry Journey only, would that be a problem? I highly doubt it. Your problem is that you don't like Perry, even though he was at the center of the best Journey line-up ever. You like his music, but not the fact that he ditched Journey, and you're in denial that Augeri is just a Perry Twin, albeit the lesser of the two, a poorly copied facsimile.
So to be a Certified Journey fan, what does one need to do? Are there any pre-requisite courses that I need to take? Do I need to take the "Etiquette in Dealing with Overly Sensitive Augeri Fans 101" class?
Please, Oh Holy Noble One, guide me on on the true Journey toward enlightenment.

As if it's any suprise that the forums' resident cackling hens now join in to abet Soledad's unjustifiable behavior.

Look, If Augeri brought you a rose, and Perry brought you a pile of journeytroll shit, you would choose the journeytroll shit, cause Perry gave it to you.
Go eat some ass somewhere else...and take that bitch PF with you..
