JOURNEY
The hits: "Who's Crying Now," "Don't Stop Believin'," "Open Arms" — the list goes on and on. Most of you who were around in the early '80s can probably remember the words to one of them, whether you like it or not.
Percentage of original members remaining: 40%
Who they were: On the band's first album, it was former Santana members Gregg Rolie and Neal Schon along with bassist Ross Valory, journeyman drummer Aynsley Dunbar and guitarist George Tickner. The band that most folks remember, though, came several albums later when vocalist Steve Perry was recruited between third album "Next" and the follow-up "Infinity." After that, the hits poured forth.
Who they are: Schon and Valory remain from the first lineup. Jonathan Cain, the former Babys keyboardist who joined in 1981, is still around. Perry has been replaced by vocal doppelgänger Steve Augeri, who signed on in 1998 along with drummer Deen Castronovo.
When and where: With Def Leppard. 7 p.m. July 13. Sold out ($38-$79). Chastain Park Amphitheatre, 4469 Stella Drive N.W., Atlanta. 404-249-6400. www.livenation.com
