Journey co-founder Neal Schon says the band’s Final Frontier Tour is nowhere near its end. In a Facebook post, Schon reflected on completing 110 shows in 2026, calling the experience transformative. “What began as ‘The Final Frontier’ now feels more like ‘The Long Goodbye,’” he wrote. Schon credited fans for reigniting the band’s passion, saying their “love, energy and passion” reminded the group how much the music still means. Keyboardist Jonathan Cain echoed those feelings, telling UCR he was “overwhelmed with the turnout.” Cain originally planned to retire after the trek but now remains uncertain. Journey’s 2026 run concludes November 28 in San Francisco, with one 2027 date already confirmed — April 27 at the Stagecoach Festival in Indio, California.
