There is now another new discussion area for Journey fans. A second newsgroup was created: rec.music.artists.journey. This type of newsgroup is usually more readily available on news servers than alt.music.journey. Thanks to Britt.

Journeyfest '99 organizers have received a lot of responses for the special event on June 4th. The deadline for registering is on March 9th. For more information about the event visit the Journeyfest '99 web site. Thanks to Moni.
Here is a message from Journey's tour manager, Rindell Ivers (thanks to Skylord):
Neal is having a spring cleaning sale of a lot of his gear he doesn't use anymore, lots of guitars, amphlifiers, speaker cabinets, recording equipment, pedals, lots of things... played on many tours and on many records.. spread the word for me will you. Any one interested can e-mail me for a list of items and costs. They should e-mail me at Jrnyband@aol.com. As soon as I get the list I will send it to the people interested.
Thanks,
Rindell
