Most speculated that it was due to previous touring obligations. However, in a new interview with Mitch Lafon & Jeremy White, Neal says while re-listening to their performance at the IHeartRadio show, it was apparent that Marco was overplaying Neal said when listening to their IHeart show "it sounded different" and Marco was "not playing the required parts on the songs." Marco was "playing in front of the drums" which didn't leave a big pocket for [Neal] to sit in. When given advice, Marco dismissively said "Ok. I'll keep that in mind." I'm sure Neal would react the same if someone gave him advice on guitar playing. Personally I find this all very strange considering Marco previously did the Journey material on Journey Through Time. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/journey-guitarist-neal-schon-talks-new-album-freedom/id1218868456?i=1000568008570

Either way, I would expect that in an arena the sound team could change the mix to take care of that. Who knows? Neal says a lot of stuff that leaves people shaking their heads.

Sounds like the latter... That makes sense. I wonder why he couldn't play like they wanted. He has what might be the job of a lifetime and can't play the parts that almost everyone is familiar with? Weird.
