That was embarrassing! Dude looks like Steve Perry after a non-stop, 6 month raid, on every buffet in Vegas :shock: Also, for what it's worth, I don't think the guy was a very good singer!

Hunsicker is way better than that dude. And they look nothing alike. This dude looks like fucking Joe Dirt's inbred brother.

Welcome to last week. There was already a thread discussing this guy and his fatness, inability to stay on pitch, inability to remember lyrics (using cheat sheats on the drum riser) CC Banana on guitar, lack of professionalism, lack of Jenny Craig and the other various idiotic crap that plagues this band (and seemingly all the tribute bands out there).

...I personally am quite down on the whole tribute band concept these days. he fact remains that when the band these tribute acts are paying tribute to, acts more like a tribute act in itself, the whole mess becomes sad, disturbing, and off-putting.

While I think Jeremey might have a bit of a leg up on some of the other steve perry wannabe's singing for journey tribute acts these days, I still think the tribute scene (with respect to Journey) is sad. Very sad. Perhaps there's still a draw in some markets. However, I can tell you for shit certain, that on long island, the tribute thing (which was huge between the late 90s (power windows :rush tribute) and mid 2004 (evolution: jrny trib and Bad Med:BJ trib).....it is deader than a doornail right now. Just last year, Evolution (fronted by Hugo) played a lame free outdoor town of hempstead band shell. While I didn't go, this was a FAR cry from when this band and other big-name tribute acts were packing places like BB Kings in manhattan or large bar venues on long island.

Have to disagree with you there, some acts give up their day jobs to go out on the road and must be doing well at it since they still do it. I think it is great tribute acts bring the music of Journey all over the country. While Hugo def catches the look of Perry, he def lacks the power in his voice from the Evolution clips I have seen. Kudos to Hugo though for having all the mannerisms down on stage :)

I don't know. I mean, I went to the Frontiers concert this past weekend and that place was packed out! True, it wasn't a very large venue, but it seemed like the people got their money's worth.

You sure did get your moneys worth with Jeremey.I have seen him before and will be going back time after time.I think he is that good.

I'll even add that I have noticed Frontiers having a larger following than what they did about 5 years or so ago. I remember going to see them play outside of the Roanoke Coliseum years ago (I think it was around '03 or '04) and there was just a handful of people there. However, the last several times I've seen them, they have had a nice crowd. They could be attributed to Journey's success in the past year or so, I don't know. It could also be attributed to them advertising the band more than what they did just a few years ago. But, I'd say if the tribute band is good, and Frontiers is excellent, you're going to get a good turnout. There is an AC/DC Tribute band that draws a huge turnout when they play down in Myrtle Beach and other areas. So, maybe there is just certain areas where they don't care for tribute bands. Could be areas where the "real thing" is more likely to tour through.

Kudos to Hugo though for having all the mannerisms down on stage :)


Thus being the main issue I have with Hugo. His own stuff is really good and his self-titled Hugo album might be better than some of the stuff Journey has done. Good singer also, even if his voice is thin. The thinness only becomes really obvious though when you have him singing Journey material because Perry's voice had a lot of depth at that range.

The issue is you still see those Perry mannerisms even when Hugo performs his own stuff (which, granted is very rare). It's off-putting to say the least. Perry could do those moves and look natural because he was being himself...when someone copies it, it looks intentional and therefore fake. Maybe I'm alone in this, but I want to see the person's own personality, not their attempt to clone someone else. You can't copy someone and look natural.

I hear what you're saying and agree! It's one thing to sound just like the guy, it's another to try to be him in every aspect. Jeremey sounds just like Steve Perry to me, but he doesn't try to be Steve Perry and I respect that a whole lot more. Not that I don't respect Hugo, because I think he's extremely talented and I love his music. Maybe if he'd style his hair different or grow a goatee or something...lol!

I think tribute bands are great. Hey, I can't go Journey when they're not touring, but I think it's cool that I can go pay $7, get loaded and listen to Infinity (Chicago tribute band), Frontiers (Virginia based) or any other tribute band that might be around for a fraction of the cost and still have a fucking blast.

Hey man, you have NO idea what your talking about in regards to Hugo's EVOLUTION.
First of all, I was at the Hempstead show and there was almost 5000 people there, so don't comment on things you know nothing about!!!
Second, the last time they played BB Kings in NYC, it was sold out and they turned away 200 poeple, they are playing there again on Nov 4th, you better get yout ticket fast.
But you are right about the LI live music scene, it sucks, that's why EVOLUTION plays all over the country, they ARE the best Journey tribute show in the country. Just ask any promoter or talent buyer.........

What a slap in the face to Jeremey. More like Dave Perry. All I want to know is who the hell was it to tell him that that get-up actually looks good and to wear it on stage in front of other human beings? Hey, as long as he is having fun...but what a joker.
