Rockers Journey are set for a trip to Las Vegas for a residency at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.

The Journey Las Vegas shows will run from 29 April (15) to 16 May (15) at the Joint.

Announcing the news in a statement on the band's Facebook.com page, guitarist Neal Schon says, "It's true! We'll be at The Joint at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino from 4/29-5/16 for 9 explosive shows...!"

The venue has become a residency site for a handful of classic rock acts in recent years - Guns N' Roses and Kiss performed multiple shows there in 2014 and Def Leppard have also stages a string of gigs there in recent years.
