I have no idea who this guy is even after seeing the clips!
Is there a Journey connection somewhere? I don't get it.

Just spill the beans already lady!!! Don't speak in code. Let me guess, Journey will be opening for this guy in bars across the country next year? Ross is really gay, and he's hooking up with this guy? This guy is one of the 200 people that have worked on Perry's songs? Neal is replacing himself with the guy? This guy is Andrew and Perry's love child? Out with it already!!!

he does play LTS in his shows. Lists Greg Rolie as an influence.
Last time I saw him was in a bar smaller than a 3 bedroom rambler.
Still he was good. His band was not
