Journey fans... are you out there? :)

If you're still reading, I'm curious to know what you think about the new album and the reviews Journey is getting for that and their live shows. It seems, on this new one, that it's becoming "The Neal Schon Show" and not much about the band as a whole. I've been reading reviews that say Neal is doing too many extended guitar solos and audiences are not taking to that very kindly. Plus the new album has a much heavier sound... generally not what their most devoted fans are looking for when buying a Journey album.

Hey carrotman! Nice to meet another fan :))) I just listened to a live performance online last weekend - they played Donington Park at the Download Festival. I thought Arnel's voice was sounding strong but Ross was looking a little aged and tired, I thought :( In any case I love "Lights"! Probably one of their best known songs of all time I'd imagine.
