Journey Revisited Playing this weekend



Before we moved into our mobile home two months ago I had preconceived negative views of what it might be like to live in a mobile home or what type of neighbors I would be living next to.  Well my image was far from the mark, and we enjoy living in our two bedroom mobile home. The neighbors are the friendliest people, as most wave hello or greet us with a hardy Buenos Diaz every morning.


The same holds true for tribute bands, many assume they are simply copying other groups and do not play well, this is an untrue notion people have until they experience a great tribute show.


If you’re a regular reader you’re aware that I visit many different venues to listen to tribute bands several times per month, some of the groups leave a lot to be desired, while others draw me in for repeat performances, and a handful I highly recommend seeing in person.




In January I met Jeff Salado in Long Beach, and found him to be extremely friendly and fun to chat with, but I had no idea of his talent. Mr. Salado and his band, Journey Revisited, sound remarkably just like Journey. His band mates are each accomplished musicians, and the mix of their music and Mr. Salado’s voice are very pleasing to the ears.


Most music lovers are aware of the ticket prices The Rolling Stones were asking, tribute bands will cost you almost nothing if the concerts are not free, as many are.


You can see for yourself that Journey Revisited is a must see band this Friday in Victorville, and Saturday in San Bernardino. The shows are very affordable at $5.00 Friday and $5.00 Saturday, not a bad deal for ninety minutes of entertainment.     


The band will depart Modesto Friday morning for the five to six hour drive to Victorville, not certain when the group will make a repeat performance in Southern California, so I suggest you see them this weekend.

The Ultimate Stones - The Best Tribute Band Ever




 Many of us Rolling Stones fans were simply priced out of seeing this historic group for their most likely last concert tour as the band members are aging and probably tired of the road trips across the globe. I will once again tout my friends The Ultimate Stones as a must see group as they love what their doing, which radiates to the audience in their music.

The past few years I have become a fan of tribute bands, and I'll have to admit it's been a thrilling ride as we revisit the music of my youth. I meet Vince Lupo at Marquee 15 when he introduced himself to me, having never heard his band, which was called Rolling the Stones at the time, I was extremely pleased with the show this group put on. After the guitarist quit the band, the name of the group had to be changed and a new member found. Everything fell into place as the new group mamber fit right in, and the band was renamed The Ultimate Stones.

With lead singer Mick Adams and Vince Lupo keeping the beat the band has experienced much success around the country. Join me at the Roxy as we step back in time and enjoy some excellent music at a cost we can all afford, FREE!
