Nicky10lbs Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 I thought you guys would like to see this picture. Here is the link to story behind the picture. http://www.journey-zone.com/Features/news.htm. And this message was posted online by guitarist Neal Schon last night: "Just back from our first show in the UK, London. Had a great time tonight and were greeted by a very cool, enthusiastic crowd to say the least. But actually, all the crowds have been great! But what I'm really writing you about is that before the show (15 min.'s before we went on) the band's hanging out backstage going over our set list. (We added quite a bit of songs tonight). Anyway, in walks...hello! Get this! Jimmy f*$! Page! He calmly walks up to me and says, "Hello Neal"...like I've known him a thousand years or so. Honestly I have to tell you, I was completely in awe, not quite believing I was standing there talking to Jimmy Page about music and continued to you until we had to go on stage. Wow. What a mind-boggling moment for me. Felt like a little kid. What a true gentleman and obviously a brilliant guitar player. He was nice enough to take a photo with the band and I, (which we will be posting here soon). I gave him our new Revelation package, he thanked me, then I shook his hand and went on stage. Honestly I felt like I had the fear of God watching me and didn't want to make one mistake and did the absolute very best performance I could.

Maidstone Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Wow - I was a HUGE fan of Journey back in 1983. Rushed the stage at the Houston Summit - those guys were on fire back then. I must say - Jimmy really has aged better than Neal. Yikes. Jon Cain isn't looking too bad though... Maid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mos6507 Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Yikes, two people in the band with the facial hair under the lip deal? Stop it, please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gervox Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Yikes, two people in the band with the facial hair under the lip deal? Stop it, please. I believe they call it a "soul patch". My 55 year old brother has one,but I understand in his case it was only a desperate distraction to the fact he no longer has any hair on the top of his head.I think Frank Zappa possibly invented it,although I can't imagine him calling it a "soul patch".More like "fuzzy moonbeam thing under my lip from the planet Jupiter".

Zepaholic Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Jimmy looks marvelous. Not the biggest Journey fan but props to Neal Schon for the kind words and respectful attitude. Are you reading this Ted Nugent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
