So my wife wanted to see Journey for her birthday. I thought with the aging of the band it might be showing a little rust.

Boy was I wrong. Those guys are tight. The music was fantastic and Arnel Paneda was pitch perfect. I looked up YouTube videos and compared Paneda and Steve Perry. I think Paneda is a better vocalist. Overall it was a fantastic show. It was also about 95 degrees with no breeze at all and they weren't phased a bit. Hottest concert I have been to.

If you get a chance, go see them. I'm not really a big journey fan but it was the most enjoyable concert I have been to.
