Neal Schon recently revealed the release of Journey Through Time, a career spanning live concert that features Journey’s classic hits and deep cuts on May 19th. The sold out show originally took place on February 9th, 2018, at the Independent in San Francisco in order to raise money for the victims of the October 2017 Northern California Wildfires.
The lineup for the show featured Journey and Santana keyboardist Gregg Rolie, current Journey drummer Deen Castronovo, former Journey bassist Marco Mendoza and keyboardist and singer John Varn.
Journey Through Time includes hits from Journey such as “Separate Ways,” “Lovin’, Touchin’, Squeezin'” and “Wheel in the Sky,” “Kohoutek” and “Of a Lifetime” off the band’s self-titled 1975 debut album. The news comes after Rolie joined Journey on stage in Austin about a month ago to play several hits from his time with the band.
At the time Rolie stated of the experience, “I think the main thing is it just brings the smiles out of Neal and myself, You know, if you write and record things like that, and then do them for years, it becomes inbred. You don’t have to rehearse much, you just don’t. You go back and say, ‘What have I done?’ – and then change it a bit, so that it’s new but not too far off from the song. That’s kind of what happened. Quite frankly, the sound check was it for me, because I’m a one-take kind of guy. And then we went to play and it was stunning; the whole thing was just stunning.”
