Journey Rocks Tahoe!

Journey Revelations
Well we’re back from Tahoe and I’m glad to report that the Journey Revelation Tour was well worth the the 3 and half hour drive and price of admission(I would’ve paid more if I had to). Lake Tahoe was the 3rd stop of the tour that has bands Cheap Trick and Heart opening the show with each of their own sets. The concert was held at Harvey’s (soon to be Caesar’s Lake Tahoe next year) Amphitheater as part of their outdoor summer concert series.

This was a good ol’ 80’s concert at its best, right down to the last lit Zippo swaying slowly from left to right. We also got to see Journey’s new lead singer Arnel Pineda for the first time, and he was fantastic. The highlight of the show for me was when Arnel introduced the song about the Bay Area called “Lights” by saying it was about his new hometown, San Francisco. The crowd, mostly from the Bay Area, went nuts. Not only does he have a powerful voice, but he runs and jumps around the stage with so much energy it makes you tired for him. I don’t think Steve Perry’s surgically repaired hip would allow him to fly around the stage like that anymore. Also, alot has been said about Arnel sounding just like Steve, but I disagree since I think it’s not too hard to tell them apart. However, they do seem to sing in the same vocal range. To Steve’s credit, he added a touch of drama the way he sang those classics so seriously, where Arnel is just having fun performing in the same dramatic style. But let’s face it, there’s really only one way to sing those classic Journey songs and whoever has had that lead spot in the past has always been compared to Steve. For me, the best thing about Pineda is that you feel confident that he’s gonna hit all those difficult high notes, wheras for Steve you just don’t know if he’s gonna hit that high note for your show or not.

Lead Singer Comparison-Steve Perry/Steve Augeri/Arnel Pineda

I actually listened to this without seeing the video and thought Pineda was Perry at one point, so I think I’ll have to take back what I said above and say that it IS hard to tell them apart.

Nothing new to report today.
* Corey Maggette was formerly introduced to the public as a Warrior last Friday.
* Lakers have until this Thursday to decide whether or not they will match the Warrior offer to Turiaf.
* And I’m also planning on sending Warriors President, Robert Rowell, my annual offseason “Suggestions for Next Season” email this week or next depending on how much time I have. I’ll post a copy of it here.

    hhmmm i guess SA is far behind compared to APs voice. SAs voice is much thinner than SP/AP.

    TO THOSE SO CALLED DIE HARD FANS OF JOURNEY…STEVE PERRY IS NOT JOURNEY!!! A TRUE JOURNEY FAN WOULD NEVER BASE THE AMOUNT OF SUPPORT THEY WOULD GIVE TO ONE PARTICULAR MEMBER OF THE BAND..IN FAIRNESS TO MR. ARNEL PINEDA. HE IS A GREAT MULTI-DIMENSIONAL SINGER WAY BETTER THAN STEVE PERRY..HERE IN THE UNITED ARAB EMIRATES WHERE IN PEOPLE OF MULTI NATIONAL ORIGIN WORK AND LIVE TOGETHER SUCH AS INDIANS,EGYPTIANS,AUSTRALIANS,BRITISH,FILIPINOS,CHINESE,LEBANESE AND EVEN ARABS ,WHOLE HEARTEDLY ACCEPTED MUSIC FROM THE WEST PRIMARILY BECAUSE OF THEIR SENTIMENT ABOUT THEIR FELLOW ASIAN(ARNEL PINEDA) WHOM THEY FOUND AS A HUMBLE AND DOWN TO EARTH GENTLEMAN THAT HAS INSPIRED THEM IN MANY WAYS AND FINALLY APPRECIATING THE MUSIC OF JOURNEY..JOURNEY’S POPULARITY JUST SKY ROCKETED TO THIS PART OF THE WORLD THANKS TO ARNEL..ASIA IS THE LARGEST CONTINENT IN THE WORLD AND CONSIDERING THE FACT THAT ASIANS WILL ALWAYS SUPPORT THEIR FELLOW ASIAN, I CANT IMAGINE HOW MANY LEGIONS OF NEW FANS FOR JOURNEY HAS EMERGED..MY COLLEAGUES AT MY WORK MOST ARE ASIANS ARE PART OF THAT LEGION OF NEXT GENERATION OF JOURNEY FANS..DONT BE MISTAKEN THOUGH..I REALLY LOVE STEVE PERRY BUT ARNEL PINEDA IS JUST TOO DAMN AWESOME!!! WAY TO GO JOURNEY!! MORE POWER AND HOPING THAT THEY COULD HAVE A CONCERT HERE IN THE MIDDLE EAST..JOURNEY ROCKS!!
