According to Yahoo!, Perry and the band teamed up to perform a number of classic Journey hits, including “Open Arms’’ and “Lovin’, Touchin’, Squeezin’.’’

The legendary rocker was last seen on stage in 1995 following the release of his second solo album, “For the Love of Strange Medicine,’’ in 1994. He hasn’t performed with Journey since 1991.
