Some of the best and the brightest in the classic rock world were out in force for the highly anticipated Classic West festival that took place over the weekend at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles.

Journey dedicate “Lights” to Steve Perry

Many were hoping that Journey would reunite with singer Steve Perry when the band were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year, but Perry is still on the band’s mind as “Lights” was dedicated to him.
