Workin' Hard To Get My Fill
We caught Journey, Heart and Cheap Trick at Jones Beach last night. We ended up with outstanding seats as well, thanks to my sister, who still has contacts with their booking agent. These wound up being in the rear orchestra, about four rows deep.
Anyway, Journey was moderately disappointing, until they blew it out with "Wheel In The Sky" and then hooked up ridiculous versions of "Don't Stop Believin'" and "Separate Ways." They've got this new lead singer, who looks a little like Steve Perry, except that he's Filipino and probably 9 inches shorter. But he also sounds exactly like him, which I think is even crazier.
For me, Heart stole the show with their stripped down version of "These Dreams," which is absolutely my favorite song by them.
Very good times.
