HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo is giving fans of last Friday's canceled Journey concert some options.

A small electrical fire underneath the stage forced rodeo officials to call off the show just a few songs into the sold-out performance.

Many concertgoers were stunned by the incident, and fans kept singing along to "Don't Stop Believin'," thinking it was part of the show.
