I watched the country music awards festival show with Rascal Flats, and Journey. Don't get me wrong. Both the bands sounded great, but I have to tell the world. After working with and experiencing the wondrous talent of Steve Perry, no one else makes those songs work the way Steve does. There is so much emotion in his singing, soooo much heart. You believe every word that comes out of his mouth when he sings.Every night on tour with him was like hearing those songs for the first time, and reliving those feelings. Every night he touched my heart, and I would just be sitting up there on the drums, amazed at what was coming out of his mouth!
Such clarity, such depth, such great pitch! More than just a concert, but a chance to see into a man's heart. So much better than light shows and videos..... Music that needed nothing else, no half nude dancers, or other BS to try to entertain you! Steve Perry was, and is the experience! You go to see him, but you close your eyes, and live everything he is singing! Like my wife says, you can't fake Steve Perry!
Steve, I miss you and I love you, and I understand!
