Never have I said that.

What you did say was you have a boot. Share, please.

I think we'd see a much larger crowd if the original line-up was still in place...even with the down time. That being a MOOT point any longer, I'll assure you that Neal would have Journey on the road and would have sold just as many tickets with or without Augeri. They wrote Arrival without him which was ironically the best of their 3 CD's. Anybody could have sung those songs and done that good of a job to get it released. They still had their Sony contract, so they would have had that promotion with any singer. Their decisions to try for a sound-alike approach actually did them more damage than good, because he lost a large faction of fans. Reading all these message boards, I haven't seen many Perryheads slicing and dicing Soto. It looks like some fans who dropped out of the Journey scene since Augeri joined are more interested now because Soto is a stronger talent with a bigger voice. If you can't have Perry, go with someone else strong enough vocally to not destroy their legacy. That's what I'm seeing. Soto is the right guy.
With the number of fans Soto has in Europe, if Journey DOES another studio CD, it will sell more than the piddly 15,000 units they sold with Generations. If they brought Augeri back by the end of the tour, it would be a HUGE mistake. How long could he last? A week, a month? Same goes for next tour. It's over for him in Journey. They better keep Soto interested and get off the greatest hits routine.
