Here is another of my many early interviews. I was working at a classic rock station. Typically when you work at a classic rock station you don't get to interview alot of people, since alot of them have died, or no longer make music. The cool thing is that when you do get to interview somebody it usually is someone of legend status! I had confirmed through a record rep an interview with a member of Journey, though I didn't know which member was going to call! They told me the day of the interview that it would be they guy I was really hopin' for..Neal Schon. The only member on all of Journey's albums!! It was early in my fulltime career and I was generally just wingin' the interview. Mr. Schon was very cordial. You could tell by the way he was answering the questions that I was like the 19th radio personality he had talked to that afternoon. It ended up being a pretty informative interview all in all! I will never stop believin' in Journey!

I thought I would pass on some of the sane happiness tips from his
website. And, a quick search at YouTube gets you his promotional video,
also shown below. duty belt

Saw Journey for the first time last year after loving them for 20 years. Great band. Love how Neal found their new lead singer on YouTube in the Phillipines in a tribute band.

Hi Warren! Journey is a band that will always be considered Timeless. New music hasn't really reached heights of yesteryear, so don't sweat it!

Journey is actually a band that I listened to years ago, although, I haven't listened to much new music, other than on the radio lately.
