what is the most you would pay to see a reunited journey with steve perry?

i'd pay up to 100 dollars a ticket for two tickets.that would be my limit.anything higher i wouldn't pay.


i had second row seats to david lee roth in 2003 here near tunica when a major storm hit knocking out power for weeks leaving half the city of memphis without power and many people were hurt and without homes.i did not get to go because of this happening so i never got to see roth.

Would a 57 year old Perry, who hasn't sung a live show in 13 years really be worth that much?

To me it would be. I don't care how low he has to sing the songs now days, he's the best frontman there ever was. Right up there with Mercury.

my thoughts to the tee!

i've seen both mercury and perry live....absolutely nothing comes close in my humble opinion.

price wouldn't be an option for me to see perry....even if he's 57. it's not the notes he hits, it's how he sells each and every line.

Oh wow, that would be a great show. If they got Rolie and Perry, my god, people would go nuts to see that.

Oh, God. You are so right Rick. I would probably pay $600.00. Honestly, up to $1000.00 for one VIP ticket. Oh, well. I'll never be out that money. My credit card is safe.

My credit card is safe unless they hire Jeremey. Then I'm afraid I will go all out.

That's not true. He sang Don't Stop Believin in a locker room after a baseball game or somethin'. I heard it.

Seriously?

I would pay upwards of $1500 for a ticket. Never saw them with him. Only saw them once in 2001.

And if I had a reunion ticket, I'd have to trade for a date with Hazel mae.....those in New England will know what I'm taking about.....giggity giggity....alright.

I paid $550.00 (for two tickets) to get into the House of Blues concert the evening of the Walk of Fame ceremony, on the OFF chance Perry was going to show up and sing a song or two.

He didn't show of course, but you know what? It was the only time I got to see Neal, Jon, Ross and SMITTY perform live. Got to tell you, Smitty wiped the floor with every drummer who performed that night. The crowd went nuts for him. Even Dean (literally) fell over backwards in awe at Smith's chops on Dean's own kit (he was sitting right behind him while Smitty went at it). You could tell by the looks on the rest of the band's faces that they knew how powerful an instrumental quartet they were with Smitty on the drums. It was a night and day performance.

That's too fucking cool to imagine. I wish I had been there. I don't know if I would have dropped $550.00 though. lol

I'd pay $200 for each of two tickets (my wife and I).

I was watching the ESC4P3 DVD last night and I don't think it will get remotely close to that, so I'd do it for nostalgia reasons more than anything.

That was a great show. I saw them in Dallas the night after that. The best concert I've ever seen.
