New here. Been reading posts for some time and can almost feel the passion people have (good and bad) about the band and various members (current and former). I don't like it when anyone is treated poorly. If the band felt they had to make a change, make it but be honest with people.
I have been a Journey fan since my sister went to their concert in Tulsa, Oklahoma right after Perry joined. Kept up with the changes over the years, but not ever in the detail like many here are.
It's amazing to see your dedication to the band, music, even drum techs (wow!). Some people have their bowling league, others their sports team, others still the Moose lodge. It's obvious that many here have Journey - a lot better community of friends than the Moose lodge in my opinion.
Maybe the truth will someday come out. Maybe not. Regardless the music still stands.
Thanks to everyone here for your passion and emotion.
