Departure the Journey Tribute Band

Saturday night we went up to Harborwalk Village to watch Departure. One of the best Journey Tribute bands around.

The clothes, the hair, air guitar, it was like being transported back in time.

And they sound JUST LIKE Journey. I saw Journey many years ago in Mobile and this tribute band is amazing. If you didn’t know better you wouldn’t realize they are a tribute band.

I closed my eyes and traveled back to 1981 in Mobile, Alabama. Inside the Mobile Coliseum, Journey onstage and a memorable experience.

They rocked!

My youngest son stayed right in front of the stage for the whole show.

He took some great video with my camera but he was right next to the speakers and the microphone on my little camera just couldn’t handle the volume.

At one point he was standing there and the lead singer reached down and took the camera from him.

We were standing on the other side of the stage and I freaked out when I saw him take the camera. “That’s my camera!” I kept telling Troy.

Who laughed and called me a groupie.

This is a tribute band so that just makes me a tribute groupie, right?

In true tribute groupie style I went up after the show to shake their hands.

Sweet.
