Well gee, since some of you guys are so sure what I think and feel and what my motives and agendas are regardless of what I may say to the contrary, what's the point in my ever offering a comment? Each of you just take turns posting what I would say and entertain yourselves.

Or Red, it could be just something as simple as Augeri just not cutting it vocally or frontman wise for some of us gals. I gave it a listen and a watch (a few times). It had nothing to do with replacing Perry, because really JSS did too. So why have I accepted JSS.........some people have that "it" factor and some don't.

And, the 'it' factor is different from person to person.

way I can explain it is that JSS has enough Perryisms to still keep the catalogue sounding like Journey but vocally different enough to not be cloning Perry. Kind of that Roth/Hagar VH thing.

What the hell are you talking about? Sammy and Dave have NOTHING in common vocaly. That is strangest comparison I have read in a long time. Hagar has "Roth'isms" LOL...too funny.

Exactly. I was comparing VH bringing Sammy in and going a different direction. They didn't bring somebody in that sounded like Dave like Journey did with SA. I said JSS had Perryisms (only natural he would have inflections of Perry, Mercury, Prince, Cooke, etc.) but vocally different than Perry, didn't say anything about Hagar having Rothisms? I don't know who Hagar's influences were.

......and you're right, the 'it' factor is different from person to person. It's personal preference, just saying who I perceive to have the 'it' factor.
