Which current act compares to the magic of Perry 81/83

Postby sonorstks » Tue Dec 14, 2010 1:13 am

Call it oldtimers syndrome, but is there even an act out there today that can come close to capturing the magic
of a Perry fronted Journey in the early 80's? Thoughts??

Hard to be that big again, and timeless. But bands like Train, Lifehouse, Matchbox 20 and pretty good, creatively (songwriting). Music is so rapid now, like movies. In and out. It's harder today to build classics, I think.

I can't think of any. We went to a lot of concerts and still go to a few. But I have never had as much fun at any other concert. Journey was great every time I saw them. I have said this many times before but when we went to the Journey concerts Steve Perry honestly made us feel like he was there to see us as much as we were there to see him. I never saw another band that did that.
