Journey Beyond: Neal Schon's New Musical Venture and Trademark Journey
Neal Schon, co-founder of Stalwart Journey, is making strides with his new project, Journey Beyond. The band's name is in the process of being trademarked, with plans for sound recordings, video releases, live performances, and merchandise. Schon's intentions for Journey Beyond have been hinted at through social media posts and trademark filings, but the full lineup and future direction of the band remain uncertain.
Recent trademark filings reveal that Journey Beyond will include live performances by a musical group and feature music in physical and digital releases. Schon has been seen with other Journey members, sparking speculation about the band's evolution. Despite the buzz, Schon has remained cryptic about the future of Journey Beyond, leaving fans eager for more details.
In addition to music-related uses, the trademark application for Journey Beyond includes plans for merchandise such as shirts, sweatshirts, hats, and socks. Schon faced opposition from Genesco Brands, who own the Journeys trademark for clothing, but the opposition period has passed without further filings. As Journey's Final Frontier Tour progresses, the possibility of former frontman Steve Perry joining them for a guest appearance remains uncertain.
Journey's history with Perry and their subsequent lineup changes have shaped their musical journey. With Arnel Pineda as their current frontman, Journey has continued to release successful albums. As Schon navigates the trademark process for Journey Beyond, fans eagerly await news of the band's future endeavors.
