Classic rock faces challenges as many iconic musicians have passed away, yet some bands like Cheap Trick continue to thrive with new music.
Journey have announced a farewell tour beginning with an extensive 60-show first leg in North America that will take up most of the first half of 2026. Appropriately, the outing has been dubbed the "Final Frontier Tour." The long goodbye begins February 28th in Hershey, Pennsylvania, and currently runs all the way through a July 2nd show in Laredo, Texas. The outing includes stops in Pittsburgh, Montreal, Memphis, Lexington, Kansas City, Austin, Tampa, Atlantic City, Knoxville, Buffalo, Cincinnati, and dozens more cities.
We spoke of Jerry Garcia and Elton John spent plenty of time on the subject of his dear ol' pal Brian Wilson of The Beach Boys and touched upon his days working with such punk acts of X and Fear. He even mentioned that he'd read my recent interview with Robby Krieger of The Doors. Of course, he also talked a ton about Three Dog Night.
Felder shares how he discovered unreleased tracks, emphasizing his dedication to constantly honing his musical skills and reflects on the spontaneity behind iconic moments like 'Hotel California.'
