Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre , Virginia Beach, VA with Foreigner
IWe had tickets to Journey and it was raining. We got into an argument as we were getting ready to go, so that and the rain made me get in a snotty mood, so we never used the tickets (much to Scott's dismay).

Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre , Virginia Beach, VA, with John Waite and Peter Frampton
Journey Rocked; but we did not take photos at this concert. We did manage to get an autograph from some of the band:
Journey signed CD cover from concert. To see more journey autographs, go to my other site: www.starwarsautographcollecting.com (Scroll down in center to Music and then Journey)

Journey has a new singer: Arnel Pineda. Our consensus was he was another Steve Perry clone but like Steve Augeri, not quite... nobody will EVER compare to Steve Perry. We love him and he alone can only get that special sound and reach those high notes. We miss him, though we will give props to Arnel. We found he was always on key/in tune, sounded pretty good, had a great on stage personality, was energetic and his fresh new found attitude showed. It was a good concert. They were sharing the stage with Cheap Trick and Heart, who also did well. And we are picky. We'll be the first to tell it like it is! If you get a chance to see them, do. My only wish is to meet them in person... so if any of them are reading this, please send a couple of passes my way and make our day because this is my favorite band!
