Which Frontman Do You Prefer?

by **VH#1** » Tue Oct 03, 2006 6:14 am

I voted Perry, but the super-cool, ultra-smooth, crooning late 70's version. Not the one where he seems like he's on speed in the '81 DVD, or the one with the chicken-bangs and perm in '86.

That wasn't speed. That was coke. :lol:

Steve Perry. Any era...70s, 80s, 90s...it's all brilliant.

JSS is at number two....

Fleishman looks too much like Ben Affleck.

by **VH#1** » Tue Oct 03, 2006 10:44 am

He looks more like Danny Romalatti from Y&R.

Augeri should shed his curls. A bit outdated. Maybe he will have changed his image when returns. Perry had lots of different styles and so has JSS.

Take me back 28 years or so and Perry is it. As one living in, and enjoying the present, JSS is it.

My sentiments exactly!!!!

We are in the present and Perry still gets the votes.

No offense, but it's a fact!

I guess I fall into the "Perry is pretty much done" camp. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love Perry's tenure with Journey, that is the music I grew up with and enjoy til this day. Steve Perry cannot be touched based on his time with Journey, imo. A brief stint as a background vocalist just doesn't do it for me. I want a charismatic energetic frontman, and not only do I think Perry is done as a lead vocalist, I also doubt highly that he could move around on stage as he did 20 some odd years ago. As I said, take me back in time to relive some of the best shows ever and Perry will be at the helm, take me to the Hollywood Bowl and I can take in the best show of today.

Now if, and I mean if, Perry were to perform today- I would be right there lining his pockets and cheering him on.

Yes..good idea. He needs a new image for sure!

He'll perform again when or if he feel's he want's to. It's up to him.

Of course it is up to him. It would give me great pleasure to have a Steve Perry show on my calendar, but I won't pressure him to make that happen. I'm all for free will.

Any picture of them is fine. I have seen some of Perry where he has his nose smashed up on theglass of a phone booth. While that may seem unflattering to you it shows me his goofy side. I like any and all pictures of the frontman I chose.

LOVE Perry, but had to vote for Soto just to get him further ahead of Augeri.

With Perry officially retired, I want Soto to get as much positive P.R. as possible.

by **Rockindeano** » Wed Oct 04, 2006 3:31 am

Andrew, and others..

You see the poll..80 total votes?

Wow, this board is in fact the King of all music boards. Nice work 'Drew.

I'll be in England a week after the Journey tour ends yet again to blast out a week of gigs with this lot in Dec...sold out gigs, lots of booze & fun!

Don't disappoint your girls back home in the US, if you're going to partake of all the booze, for heaven's sake throw in a yoga class or too to keep that toned physique!!!!

by **Lilla_Forever** » Wed Oct 04, 2006 6:44 am

It will always be Perry for me, even though the other gentlemen are extremely talented too. He is (or was...?) just that bit better, more unique. Rolie and Soto are my runners up.

I'm sorry LFND next time I will answer you right away. I will just put my life on hold
and answer you cause I live for the message board.

Nice cartoon someone must of thought enough of Steve Perry to idolize him in a superhero way.
