3.16.2008Worth the JourneyLast night it was decided that everyone is a Journey fan. Some will say they like Journey others will say they hate Journey, but all of them own Journey's Greatest Hits. C'mon, you own it... you do own it... right? Stone in Love at Record Bar Good thing all Kansas City's Journey fans showed up at Record Bar on Saturday night when a rare union of some of the area's top musicians blessed us with Stone in Love, a tribute to Journey. It was one of those shows where everyone got drunk, reminisced and went home to pull out their Journey collection. I know I did two out of the three. Thankfully, I didn't need the alcohol. Despite the half-assed attempt to recreate the look, Stone in Love was dead on. They played the hits. Even from Raised on Radio, which, no matter how much Steve Perry (aka JD Warnock) protested it was an amazing album, was the lackluster step-child album from the Journey catalog. The night started with the band's namesake and progressed through the prom favorites, Faithfully and Open Arms, and ended with the apt closer Don't Stop Believin'. And it didn't matter if you were alive to remember the shitty mullets, moustaches, and spandex-tuxedo t-shirt ensembles of the 70's and 80's, Stone in Love rocked everyone in the room. Unfortunately, there is only one more scheduled show so far... April 19th in Lawrence. Yes, I'm there.
