Of course we KNOW what the reason is, but it would still be nice to hear something officially from the leadership of the band. And to me, that is Neal. I want him to stand up and take charge, and be the leader that most people here think he should be. I know there's still stuff to work out, and I'm willing to wait for it, but I do think they do need to make an announcement. Only then will there be a chance to truly move on with Jeff. JMO.
Right, I hear you. I'm just saying that if they didn't make an announcement at all, it wouldn't matter. I honestly think that legally, they would need to make an announcement. It'll probably happen eventually, once everything is in place, and it'll probably be very short and sweet. JSS deserves the announcement that he is the official lead singer of Journey and it'll also allow Journey to produce new music, if that's their intention. It's kind of tough to do that with a new singer, if he's not officially the new singer.
