Hello folks,

Newbie here. Been lurking a couple of weeks. I will take my lumps -- I'm no longtime Journey fan, am familiar with their bigger hits, especially the power ballads, but yes I'm with the new wave of fans that Arnel brought along.

I am fine with the notion that Steve Perry will always be 'The Voice' of Journey, but if there's room for fans who are looking to the future of Journey, then I'd like to claim a spot.

Anyway, here's my I-come-in-peace offering. Found this recent interview of Jon Cain that forum members might find mildly informative.

Oops. Point of order. Not sure if it's an actual interview or just an article with quotes of Cain's previous statements.
