Update: Journey was awarded the “highest award” in the open competition of the festival - the group received the LA GAVIOTA DE PLATA (The Gull of Silver) maximum award. Journey beat out the competition by a popular order of the public (in attendance and tv viewership); Earth, Wind & Fire was one of the opponents in the group category. Arnel Pineda, himself, won two (2) torches, the prestigious Gold award and another one in silver during the international competition amongst vocalists on the second day of the Festival of the Vine of the Sea. BRAVO!

Thanks to Journey for giving fellow PinoyHongKong Arnel Pineda a chance.
