Summary:
From the first public Mime Troupe events in 1965 to his untimely death in 1991, Bill Graham set the standard for excellence in concert presentations and in doing so, redefined the art of communication for an entire generation. To honor Bill Graham, Steve Kahn and Melissa Gold, the BGP staff organized a free concert in Golden Gate Park for Sunday, November 3. Mother Nature cooperated and provided a comfortable and cloudless day as 300,000 people gathered in the Polo Field of Golden Gate Park.
Although the Grateful Dead were expected to make an appearance, the list of performers was kept well under wraps and few had any idea who exactly would be performing. It didn't seem to matter though, as the feeling that permeated the crowd was one of quiet reflection. This concert marked the end of an era, but also memorialized Bill Graham in a manner that was fitting - a free concert in the heart of where it all started. The sad circumstances aside, this was truly a celebration of Graham's life and as the poster for this event noted, it was to be a day filled with Laughter, Love and Music.
Journey played its debut gig for Bill Graham at Winterland on the last day of 1973. For this special event, eighteen years later, members Steve Perry, Neal Schon, and Jonathan Cain reunited to perform before the massive San Francisco crowd assembled in the park.
They open with "Faithfully," one of their most memorable songs. The sparseness of the instrumentation (just piano and electric guitar) showcases the lyrics, which take on added poignancy in the light of Bill Graham's passing. Schon's lovely guitar work at the end provides a bridge into a brief "Lonely Road Without You" sequence that segues directly into their biggest hit, "Lights." This familiar song serves as both an homage to Graham as well as the city of San Francisco.
He’s my age 71...The Best Singer Ever!! C’Mon People one of his biggest hits!!
Steve Perry is a true master! His voice and talent is unheard of. OFF THE CHARTS INCREDIBLE!
This Crowd was not Aware!!! Greatness! Steve Perry is the best to ever do it!!!
One of the greatest in recorded history!
The reason it sounds like the crowd is "dead" is because the audio was taken from the soundboard. The crowd noise simply isn't in the mix. Golden Gate Park holds about 200,000 people and it is quite LOUD as I've seen several festivals there. Can't believe how goofy some of these comments are.
No if the crowd were loud their lips would be moving which they aren't! And why if the crowd was so loud as you say does Steve need to constantly beg for them to react?
@@patricklarry6645 you're just plain wrong. this is a soundboard recording. the audience noise is not in the mix. i work in sound editing and have seen probably thousands of concert videos and bootlegs. this isn't a question mark. Journey is quite popular in San Francisco. And Steve is always egging on the crowd to participate. He does that in every show, every Journey concert video.
@@RyanInLA he's begging for a reaction. Only the women were singing and it was mostly Male audience. You can't change my mind.
@@patricklarry6645 lol ok, i'll go along with your theory that 200,000 people agreed to be completely silent during one of the most popular hits by one of the most popular bands in San Francisco. Even though you can literally hear the crowd cheering en masse after the song ends, the band's mics picking up the nat sound from the event.
@@RyanInLA they didn't come to hear journey. The majority crowd were dead heads..
This is definitely a moment where it's obvious that the 80's truly were over. Not just the calendar years, the overall magic of that decade. Back in the 80's, when songs like Open Arms and Faithfully began playing, the world literally stood still. But, musical tastes had changed. This was when songs like Nothing Compares 2 U were playing on the radio every five seconds.
I would have liked to hear Steve asking a song with Sinead... Probably no one would like this comment, maybe even Steve wouldn't, well he probably wouldn't, but I think that would have been awesome.
I love this version of this song. It's almost like a "un-plugged" version, with no drums and no heavy "production" of layers of reverb. It's a nice slice of time. But I agree with some others, it was a bit dated at the time, and the audience was not responding as they did 8 or 10 years before, but I love the version, and I'm glad it's posted here for posterity. It's a beautiful song, and it will literally live on forever...
Good gosh the man was older here! Your voice changes as we age all of us.....he gave his all in the time Journey was at their hiatus...the 80's when I was lucky enough to see him so many times....I will always love this man.....he gave is all people...his voice was damaged from all the wear....love you forever Steve.
Wear and drugs. Drugs are a singers worst nightmare. Did a number on whitney Houston also. Singers are learning to treat their voice box well, it's their lively hood.
Even on her worst day he was amazing! No one had his voice and no one will ever.
He was and will always be one of the best voices in this lifetime. Pure genuis!
1 of the greatest groups in history and this crowd didn't deserve to be in front of greatness. ...
Sad
These people need to visit Spec's and go to your nearest Vet and get their ears vacuum.

Don’t they realize this is THEE STEVE PERRY?
Before Steve perry
It's normal with soundboard recordings no to hear all the crowd reaction
A band out of time. This is one of the greatest bands of the 1980s who have continued to amaze people throughout the years. Steve Perry is a great singer and Jonathan Cain is a great writer, and thanks to the internet we are allowed to witness what constitutes a great band. Whenever you get fed up with the crap that is on the radio, you can log onto to RUclips and see how much better music was back then than it is today.
Steve Perry wrote and co-wrote many of the songs that made them famous. Steve Perry actually, has written and even sang back up for many artists for decades. He arranged, produces, re-mix, and all involved with record. Has been involved with making Vinyls recently, of his 2018 album, Traces. He’s so talented. So is Jonathan Cain (Keyboards/writing/co-writing), and Neal Schon, is such a talented guitarist.
The band, as well as the crowd, was in a somber mood because this was a memorial for Bill Graham.
FINALLY someone who actually read the summary and got the point!
Who’s bill graham?
Jean Lizzie Oh ok. I wondered what was wrong with them. 💫
Music people should stay out of helicopters.
That really doesn't explain the audience or the shit acoustics though.
What this man does to me every time I hear his voice. NO ONE can compare to him... No one
Yes his voice is no longer in shape but emotions are still well conveyed.
And to hear the voice of the legend artist who brought these iconic songs is ecstatic enough.
2022 faithfully and timeless
Still here.
This is a gift for my eyes and ears!!!😍❤️❤️❤️
Un grande gruppo i Journey. Tutte bellissime canzoni. Come mai in Europa non hanno sfondato? Un vero peccato, molti italiani non conoscono le loro canzoni e non sanno cosa si perdono
Damn I would of screamed faithfully when he pointed the mic to the crowd!😂
We did scream faithfully!! I was there it was a memorial for Bill Graham. This put together at the last min. They sounded better from the crowed. i had heard that they might be there so I left after work at 1:30 A.M. from Sacramento and waited for hours to see them.
can't faithfully reason very hot weather but still can sing and good looking
Good morning Steve. You are wonderful. I could listen to your voice for the rest of my days. And gaze into your eyes.
Love Steve Perry. I always wished the best for him:)
It was the beginning of the END...We will never see Journey and Steve Perry together ever again...This crowd was very disrespectful
Steven Perry you are the best....your voice amazes me. No need for perfection, I hear your beautiful voice always.
This was a memorial for a dear friend he was overcome with emotion. did you not hear him after this on his next solo album and tour come on use the brain God gave you.
Bill Graham didn't even promote Journey, did he?
Wished I coukd have been there for this. Glad I went 2 of their concerts before Steve left for good. I get why he left...but the run he did was beyond awesome! Partied to his music, fell in love listening to his music, made mad love to it also. Love Journey, Love Steve!!❤❤❤ memories forever!
It's sad seeing this. From what I've read, Steve was going through a lot with the hip troubles and personal life things prior to this gig. I also imagine though, he didn't spend much time vocalizing. If you don't use it, you lose it =( . The amount of care this guy put into his singing is evident in the live shows prior to this. I recall reading interviews where he wouldn't party with the band after gigs or talk prior to shows after warming up. That's what it takes to perform and sing at the level Mr. Perry did. A lot of dedication and a lot of sacrifice.
it was a degenerative bone disease that showed up when he injured his hip when hiking. that was around 1997. this is approximately 3 to 4 years earlier.
STEVE PERRY IN 1994 SINGS LIKE THE GODS, SO YOU SEPOSE !!
Alberich Hunter dude in this song hi have to sing in another tone cause he can't sing at the original tone for years and nobody who knows about of music didnt see that
Pablo Díaz 8
He was amazing in this outdoor performance. It was certainly worth listening to unfortunately he is too lazy to sing more
Just BEAUTIFUL ❤❤
Highway run
Into the midnight sun
Wheels go round and round
You're on my mind
Restless hearts
Sleep alone tonight
Sendin' all my love
Along the wire
They say that the road
Ain't no place to start a family
Right down the line
It's been you and me
And lovin' a music man
Ain't always what it's supposed to be
Oh girl, you stand by me
I'm forever yours, faithfully
Circus life
Under the big top world
We all need the clowns
To make us smile
Through space and time
Always another show
Wondering where I am
Lost without you
And being apart ain't easy on this love affair
Two strangers learn to fall in love again
I get the joy of rediscovering you
Oh girl, you stand by me
I'm forever yours, faithfully
Whoa-oh, oh-oh
Whoa-oh, oh-oh, oh
Whoa-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Faithfully
I'm still yours
I'm forever yours
Forever yours
Faithfully
This makes me emotional, Journey's last show with Steve Perry, I'm grateful that Journey is still going, I love Armel Pineda, but I do miss Steve Perry being in the band, Even though I was born in the 90s, I've watched many live performances of Journey, Steve was going through hard times, but even though he manage to carry on until 1987, Every time I listen to songs from their 1996 album Trial by Fire, it's emotional because to think that that was their final album with Perry is heartbreaking, it's ashamed they never got to tour with for that album with Perry.
He's last show with the band was in 96
We love you, Steve! Always!
I LOVE YOU Music Man......💜. Your Fans are Many and Faithful.......💜💋
Neil and Cain in their Bad English days! This performance isn't stellar but still intense and deep. Even in his worst day, Steve is still touching
I love Steven Perry sounds amazing❤❤❤
Steve Perry...ahhh.. the man, the Voice, The Living Legend! I was at this memorial / signed the banner in front. I still put flowers on Bill's grave. It was an awesome, beautiful, sunny , but sad, day in GG Park. One of the Last Real FREE Concerts in the Park. Now it's al about money, money, money, and Control ! Happy 4/20 ya'all!!
Thank you @yo yokum. Finally someone who was there and can give an accurate description of what happened that day. Thank you for being there and for still showing respect to Bill Graham.
This was when Journey was only a 3-piece band, they didn't have the bass and drums to make this song sound like it normally sounds but they still sound really great!
Whole step down in Amajor. Still sound great, Steve is the man
I really love this guy ♥♥♥♥
Looked like Steve didn’t wanna sing anymore and didn’t wanna be with Journey as well.
Steve Perry You’re always be my #1
Watching from the Evergreen State 🌲
Steve Perry you are one in a billion!
Love this Song makes me feel grateful I'm alive 🙏
so beautiful...well done..
It's beautiful to me as well. Steve Perry is the authentic, real deal. I will not listen to jaded people who simply want to hate for their own agenda
Arnel Pineda will never achieve the success that this man has. Thanks for letting us know why you came here to leave a nasty comment about the man who created everything that feeds him. He couldn't get it for himself. Arnel's latest Journey album is a flop. They lost money on it
Steve Perry having a bad day is still better than most singers best days
MrAlienautopsy 👍🏼
WOWZERS!!! I was living in San Francisco at the time but I was too young to attend 😭
WE LOVE YOU ❤ STEVE
LEGEND
Truly the consummate professional and performance! They were also good together! #StevePerry #StevePerryMusic
Steve thought he was at a Journey concert again and failed to realize Journey had been dead for about 4-5 years at this point. The crowd wasn't feeling it, it was obvious. Journey wasn't hot then, they had ZERO momentum, retired abruptly, and Don't Stop Believing was an afterthought at this time. Now lthey are filling up FRICKIN stadiums with a backup singer on top of it. A great one in that with Mr. Arnel Pineda. They are alive and well although nearing the end and Steve just made his one last album, encore. He will probably do a limited date Solo tour and fade off into the sunset after that to. Love u Steve, Journey. Thanks for all the wonderful memories. You have touched millions of people with your beautiful music!!!!
If Pineda doesn't stick around with Journey, they can find another vocalist who can mimic Perry. All they have to do is go on RUclips and find another one. LOL. You can play your instrument into your 80s and probably beyond, it's the vocals that have to be replaced or retired.
This is a memorial concert, which is why the crowd was kinda dead.
Hold on, everybody. I was at this gig and so many people were singing along. It’s just that in this vid you can’t hear the crowd. At this time Schon and Cain were still in Bad English. Deen Castronovo was in the backstage, he came out for a second to say hello
I'm forever yours Steve Perry
I was only 32 when I heard this song and I was in Love
Golden voice
👏🏻🙏🏻The best
TBH, some of the negative comments below are utter horse$hit ........ it is crystal clear to hear that this audio is direct off the front of house soundboard (mixer to us Brits), with little or no FX .... also the obvious reason why there is no crowd noise on the recording ...... and as has been posted in other comments, the crowd were OBVIOUSLY IN SOMBRE MOOD BECAUSE IT WAS A MEMORIAL FOR BILL GRAHAM !!! ..... his performance is not much different to any of the other live recordings, and close to the original studio recording .... bearing in mind the nature of this gig, probably no soundcheck or little chance to warm up ...... it's still fantastic, all you detractor trolls ! ......... and while we're on the subject, I was lucky enough to catch Journey in the UK many times between 2006 and 2012, with
Steve Augeri, Jeff Scott Soto, and Arnel Pineda ..... they all did a FANTASTIC job, with Arnel sounding top of the three to my ears ........ the songs are fantastic, the band are great, who wouldn't want them to continue performing for a live audience .... only diehard Steve Perry worshippers crying into their pillows ...... it's their CAREER for f*ck's sake !! But, what do I know, some of the comments below are clearly from household name internationally known recording artists with Grammy awards falling out of their arses, right, so we should respect their opinions, yes ..... ?
Plus it was that special WOMAN that I had my HEART SET ❣️ on but she past away
So this week Journey got inducted to the Rock Hall of Fame.
And the man, Steve Perry standing on the same stage as his old band. For the first time since 1991. And the question of the night was , would Steve sing with Journey? For the first time in 26 years.
But it didn't happen, and now Journey fans know for sure this video will always be the final show of Steve with Journey
He was with them until 96. LOL.
Forever Young 2018
Stop making me cry please 😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Oh my good the beautiful man.Ilove.
Stunning!! xoxoxo
When you could go to a concert and actually hear the music.
im forever yours Mr Perry
Love his voice
Eu amo esse homem. 😍😘😘
Excelente me encanta
Iam very sad listening to this...I can clearily understand and feel that he is emotionaly depressed ....perfoming like a wreck....He's been through much in His life He is almost crying on stage!!!!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY STEVE PERRY!
멋지십니다 행님
podrás tener 70 años y te segurire Amando!!!! amo tu Don! !!!
I've just seen this and while this may have been Steve Perry's last show with Journey his voice STILL sounded amazing. Yes, the sound overall maybe wasn't great and him trying to get the crowd to sing along was like flogging a dead horse (what the hell was wrong with them - they were like zombies!) BUT, despite that, Steve still sounded much the same as he did on any of the albums that he did with Journey and NOBODY could match him vocally. He has a very distinctive voice and even though one of their subsequent vocalists (the Asian guy) seemed to desperately try to emulate him that was to no avail - only Steve sounds like Steve. So, for all the people on here who say that his performance was 'sad' I say BULLSHIT - what was sad was Journey signing up that wannabe vocalist later on after they lost Steve.
I listen beautiful sing truly. l love you.♥♥♥
This was the last reunite he had with Journey. Aw, and a dead crowd was there. but his voice sounded pretty good here. And after FTLOSM tour he was completely done with music.
I am pretty sure that the crowd is muted in that video, otherwise I can't explain what we see here...
It was a memorial concert for Bill Graham, the S.F. music promoter...Steve has said in interviews that it was the most difficult show he did because the audience was so quiet in their grief.
Love Steve Perry 💙
사랑합니다 영원히
i love u forever
Steve perry Forever
Drums should be an integral part of this sonG!
I thought he still really sounded great. I always liked his hair longer. The band sounds wonderful and this crowd sucks like I’ve never seen. What’s wrong with these people??? I would have been thrilled to be there! 💫
He was gorgeous back then. He's also smokin' in the clip from 94 in NYC. Wow. He never sounded or looked better than that one too. It's too bad he quit altogether after he left in ?? 1997? He had another good decade of rock ahead of him if that 94 show is to be believed. He could have hired a bunch of studio musicians post Journey and gone on the road with new songs or covering Journey songs. :( I mean, the guy had hip surgery though, you can't run and jump around the stage after a hip replacement, but he could still have belted out some songs for another 8-10 years.
The crowd sucks due to who mixed the audio. You can barely hear them.
BRING BACK THE O.G JOURNEY & LET ARNEL BE A SOLO ARTIST->FREE!!!!!
everyone says steve this steve that what bout neal schon amazing guitarist.
❤❤❤❤maravilhoso para sempre
he looks great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 3 men band :) yes Where r the Drums?
Steve Perry's age here is the same with Arnel's when he joined journey way back 2008.
The comparison must be made here to be fair😊😊💯
Every person in this world has their own time
Still kick arnel ass
Why does it have to be a comparison between these 2 men? They're two different persons singing the same songs, so what?
to be honest there is no comparison its like saying a copy of the mona lisa could be compared to the real one. no matter it will never be as good and arnel does not sing it correctly for whatever reasons he has changed it too much
Just to be fair.....Steve made it into the music hall of fame, based on his song writing and unique vocals. Arnel is awesome but he tagged on to what already was, that’s why he’s stagnant. You can never compare the original recording artist to a stand in trying to sing their song. Steve is forever locked into history for his songs with Journey including Faithfully, and that’s forever sealed, period! Vocally, Steve is one of the best vocals to have ever walked this earth. His pitch and tone were very near flawless.......
Poor Steve Perry's ,didn't realize he was singing at a cemetery. Dead crowd. Did someone die?
Yes. Bill Graham...long time concert promoter. He helped give Steve his start. He was MUCH beloved. So along with other bands, the main 3 of Journey wanted to give tribute to him.
Who the hell dares to say this performance was bad? lol! this is a slightly different version of the song but Steve's vocal job here is basically flawless, not loosing the control of his voice at any point. Don't take me bad, I love Arnel Pineda very much but this is by no means a bad or mediocre performance.
Steve's voice was wrecked, he hasn't sung a Journey song in the original key since 1986.
We all need the clowns with a smile is so true.
The audio wasn’t targeted towards the audience. Believe me they were going nuts
I think he is 42 years old in this video
Who in the WORLD was responsible for sound check...? I'd strongly say that a lot of reverb is missing...... we are talking beautiful Rock & Roll ballad - Faithfully
And the crowd is so disappointing uff I also realize that all the songs have been stepped down 2 scales, but Steve still does a great job even though his voice seems to be exhausted.
Dracule Mihawk This was a tribute to Bill Graham. I think that the crowd was being respectful and sad that this great man was gone.
ABSOLUTELY RIGHT! It would inappropriate to be flashy and showcase your singing abilities.
Arnel Pineda sounds just like a young Steve .... Though i miss Perry,I'm grateful the band still going on.
+Leonard Paz
He's a perfectly great singer but there's ONLY ONE STEVE PERRY. If I were blind I can tell the difference. Perry's got the deep soul thing. I just don't feel it without him. Tribute band to me now.
Arnel sounds horrible.
no. Steve has a softer voice lack of power.This version is 2 steps down.
@@GETole look who's horrible here
@@josiedelosreyes519 Yep. He hadn't performed, at all, in 4 years.
love Steve Perry..but i love Arnel also such a powerful vocal
No lo sé pero como que hay algo que no cuadra en este video..y creo que es el audio e imágenes.
Hermoso
Steve Perry on his worst day is still better than every singer today on their best day .
Did the crowd know any of the lyrics? Kinda like journey, the crowds died by the 90s
I had forgotten he was still with journey in the early 90's. I think this was the last gasp of the band with steve. He doesn't exactly look happy here or very inspired. He seems ready to be done to me.
@@misfit5775 Rock fans aren't somber when someone dies. Plus it was Bill Graham, he wasn't even a performer. Granted he was a Bayarrhea institution (I'm from S.F., still live here), but I'll bet other bands that day were smokin'.
where is the drummer and bass player?
No rhythm section, mix is only coming from the soundboard, played differently, and still excellent.
The only VOICE OF JOURNEY IS STEVE PERRY ❤💋❤💋❤
I don't give a damn about the crowd, or this Arnel guy.
Steve Perry will ALWAYS be the man. Don't ever forget that!
Steve looks so very worn out. Even the lyrics were wrong in places. The magic just wasn't there this time. You can see it in his eyes . I think this was the beginning of the end. Still love Steve Perry..the VOICE.
very quiet crowd are dead
Shameful how this crowd behaved. I know Steve Perry did not sound like he used to, but he still have a very unique voice.
I hope everyone in this crowd feels stupid if they ever go back and realize how lucky and ungrateful they were
