Journey on CBS 2 On The Town in 1982

Journey's appearance on the local CBS station's "2 On The Town" included Neal Schon and Jonathan Cain


Neal Schon and Jonathan Cain did an interview segment on a Television News Magazine Program in 1982. Melody Rogers hosted the show and showed off Neal's new car. This was an excellent piece that gives out some unknown information about the plans of the band at the time. Escape was a catastrophic album that was destined for outer space. Neal Shows off his car and talks about his Guitar collection, Jonathan Cain talks about what it's like to be the newest member of the band and what it was like for him moving to San Francisco. This is a lost gem from the local Los Angeles CBS station, KNXT called "2 On The Town" and was hosted by Melody Rogers.

The Journey Frontiers Stickker-Gram Postcard and Sticker

 The Original Journey Frontiers Stickker-Gram



This was the size of a post card and could be used as such. They are also individual stickers you can peel and stick anywhere. They were acquired through the Fan Club, The Journey Force, back in 1984.

Happy Birthday Departure

 Departure turns 42 years old today, March 23.


Departure was released on March 23, 1980 by Columbia Records. The album made it to #8 on the Billboard charts.

There seems to be some confusion over the release date. The internet is showing February 29th as the release date but the most reliable sources, "Ultimate Classic Rock" and "Disccogs" has it as March 23. Wikipedia is wrong.

Journey Force Folding Sunglasses

 The Journey Folding Sunglasses


Journey started selling folding sunglasses in 1984. I got my pair in 1985 through the Journey Force which is the name of the old Journey fan club. I made a video to show off the sunglasses. I also talk about the current tour.

I talk about my tickets to Journey's Freedom tour. I also show off my past Ticket stubs from all the times I've seen Journey. At the end of the video, I show off the Journey Folding Sunglasses that were on sale at the Journey Fan Club between 1984-1995. May the Journey Force be with you.

 Journey on "Live At Five" in 1986


I found another great interview from 1986! This one is from Sue Simmons in New York. This is a great interview, where again the band has to defend themselves against the backlash from not making any Music Videos for the album "Raised On Radio". The interview last about 5 minutes. Enjoy!!!

Neal Schon Announces new Album Cover and Track Listing

In 1985, Journey was recording their new album, "Freedom". The song "Liberty" from the box set, "Time3", is a remnant from that album. The next thing we knew, the album was scrapped and Journey was a three-man band. The album that was released in it's place was called "Raised On Radio".

Now in 2022 "Freedom" will finally be released with a whole new song line-up! Funny enough, Journey seems to be a three-man band again. It will be interesting to find out who the band line-up will include.


01. Together We Run (4:49) 
02. Don't Give Up On Us (5:23) 
03. Still Believe In Love 
04. You Got The Best Of Me (5:33)

Jelly Roll Sweetie

 Journey's "Homemade Love" is talked about in this mini-Interview / Music Video. Steve Perry and Gregg Rolie of Journey were guests on Jim Ladd's "Innerview" series in 1980. Steve and Gregg explain the meaning of the lyrics,  "Jelly Roll Sweetie" from the song "Homemade Love".


I decided that a Journey Channel is just going to have to have some Journey music, it doesn't make sense otherwise. This video also includes a Music Video of "Homemade Love" which is an excerpt of Journey live at Nakano Sun-plaza In Tokyo, Japan on 10-13-1980.

Wheel In The Sky goes to Journey's Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame

I take a Journey into Hollywood to find the Star. Journey received a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and went to see it, to clean it, to be it. You'll see the whole Journey, from the driving to the Star to walking to the Star, to finding the Star, to cleaning the Star, to driving home from the Star.

One of the hottest summer days in 2016. Footage was lost, but I was able to cobble together a video of the trip!

Come check out the Wheel In The Sky YouTube channel!  Click below to watch the video!
