On top of the 10-15 shows they did in South America. They're looking at about 80-85 shows once mid-October rolls around. And that's the 2011 leg of the tour. You know they'll hit Japan before they head back to North America in 2012, too. Wow.

...and Hawaii and the Phillipines. I wonder if they'll follow some of the other bands and take another crack at China and maybe Inida. I did hear it was supposed to be something like 100-110 shows this year. I think Hawaii is usually at the end to give the crew a really nice vacation. I wonder if I can get a job!!

My wife found out about this show being on one of her nights off. Begged me to buy tickets, so I told her I would on the condition that we're not staying for an encore, and the possibility of even leaving before they finish their full set.

If it were up to me I would gladly watch Night Ranger and Foreigner and bolt. Marriage is about compromise! :lol:

After seeing what Foreigner can do acoustically a couple of weeks ago. I know they are going to be great. Hansen was FANTASTIC live. So I'm happy I'll get to see NR and Foreigner AND beat the traffic, unless of course Journey plays too much Eclipse stuff! :lol:

I see Journey is now playing the Aurora festival in Greece in August.

2 Hartford dates? 8/16 and another on 8/25? That can't be right....

Fixed. I copied that list from Pollstar, so I don't know how two Hartford dates popped up...

I can't see Journey until they hit Washington state. I sure hope they aren't too road ripe by then. :shock:

They've been road ripe since '07.... :lol:

by **slucero** » Sun Apr 24, 2011 1:54 pm

They better be careful they don't burn AP out... SP was averaging 100 shows per year during his '79 (Infinity) - '82 (Frontiers) run... They're hitting 70 shows plus a year already.. and AP was 41 when he joined... not 30... the age SP was in 1979....

By the time they hit my closest venue on 9/18, it'll be their 3rd night in a row....

And where are they going to find time in August to get over to Greece?

by **JourneyHard** » Mon Apr 25, 2011 4:15 am

Maybe they can get their second-stringers on the road to cover some of these shows featuring Steve Perry, Gregg Rolie, Randy Jackson, Steve Smith, and Miles Schon.

You mean the second stringers that made the band huge and either played multiple nights or stadiums? Is that what you meant you retarded troll?

If you were joking it's still a sign of moderate retardation. :lol:

Damn. They'll have multiple sets of equipment going in different directions to pull this off. That's a lot of careful scheduling to have everything in place for shows that close together calendarwise and that far apart in distance. Not to mention the exhaustion those guys are going to feel from that kind of travel, with customs and all that crap to contend with.

Neal flunked geography, so He probably thought Greece is a state between NC & NJ :twisted:

I have to believe that's a typo. Doesn't even seem possible.

Yeah I just found out its a typo. The artist is Journey aka Jay OM from the Uk. Wrong artist.

Showing two dates on Wheatland CA (Sacramento) also - 10/5 & 10/14. That would be a surprise to me also. They do sell well in the area, but I don't think they are going to fill the amphitheater twice.

Fixed. The one on the 5th should be in Concord. Same amphitheater name. Must have confused Pollstar. :lol:

You call me special needs because I think Journey is the best rock band ever. Yikes!

by **fightingilliniJRNY** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 4:31 am

Added St. Paul and Bristow. Up to 47 North American dates.

Special Needs? In your case, I think the proper term Is retardation. Journey's not even a true rock band, they're closer to pop than rock when looking at their work as a whole.

Great band? Sure.
Best ROCK band ever? Only if you live in a one band world and even then, it would be debatable.
