We've walked out of several concerts by Journey … I can't imagine how bad it must be to walk out on a tribute band!!

 

If you didn't like them the first time why did you keep coming back?

I am also curious as to the name of the band.  We can take or leave Journey, but loved DSB on Anthem.

 

Saw DSB a couple of times on Anthem and really enjoyed them.  The Music Hall is a great venue.

We LOVE their music … but in concerts they amp up the sound way too much for many people, including us.  The first time it happened, people started walking out in droves with their hands over their ears, after about 3 songs … the second time, we brought some very good earplugs and they did nothing.  Same thing happened, people left with their hands over their ears.  At some point Mr Chew found one of the sound techs and asked about the sound levels, and was told that's the way the band wants it, louder than anyone else ever sets the volume.  (This was at the Classic East Concert a few summers ago)

 

So, no more live Journey for us, but maybe a good tribute band at "normal" loud rock'n'roll volume would be just the ticket!

Now that's an excellent example of an oxymoron. 🤣

Isn''t the saying "If it's too loud you're too old"?

 

Remember some concerts in the '70's that left me almost deaf for days.

I think it might have been the age demographics on this sailing. It seemed to me that there where a lot of seniors myself included. I thought it was a good show. It is very difficult to find someone who can duplicate the vocal range of Steve Perry.

No we like journey I think the tribute band had a BAD night.
