I think you should be ok for a few more days. From what I've been able to find, they're showing all 123 or so episodes are are supposed to go through September 3rd.

I watched for a while yesterday and had a blast. How have I been alive all this time and not know that there was an arcade game based on the band Journey??? My mind was blown.

Journey kind of an oddity.  It had an actual cassette tape of Separate Ways in it.  It played after you completed all 5 waves of the game.

Oh! Is that what's supposed to play during the concert stage portion? I watched a little video of the emulated version, and there was no music during that section. I thought it was odd that the music was missing there.

Yeah.  You collect all the instruments and then the band plays.  It had to be odd without Steve Perry singing!
