I'm sorry, I just don't agree with you guys at all. Yes, it's true, SP is no longer the front man for Journey, but I think we are all aware he is still very much involved with their music. If not, what were those things that hit music stores on October 3rd??? What are those songs we're hearing at every Journey concert, and I recently heard that SP is making somewhere around 37% profit off of Journey even now. And isn't it true that Steve Perry's voice is the one we hear on almost every Journey promotional soundbite out there???
No, boys, he is not dead. Comatose maybe, handicapped quite possibly, but far from dead.
Whether he ever comes back or not is anyone's guess. I realize I'm probably foolish for keeping a sliver of hope that he will one day rejoin the lineup, but I will continue to hope, because I think that would be such an awesome thing! Until then, I will just go see Journey with JSS in a few weeks, and continue to listen to my classic Journey music.
I don't mean to piss anyone off, but for me personally, it's as if the Augeri Journey never really existed. I saw them in concert once, and they were good, but not good enough to keep my attention. We'll see about JSS...I'm hoping for great things from him.
