Deceptive post title. More likely the venue made the ad - NOT Augeri.

[tater1977]

So you don't think Augeri knew about it?

So you don't think Augeri knew about it?

Not necessarily. The actual band, Journey, had ads like this and had to address it several times. Artists can't control every micro-detail.

Steve. Steve. Steve.

[Memorex]

Yea - I think that's a venue thing. At least I hope so. Otherwise, ish.

[Ehwmatt]

Like TNC said, either a venue thing or something similar. Augeri likely has no say, even if he wants to have say in it.

At least he was a "former lead singer" for Journey. unlike others
Augeri won me over in 1999 seeing him live with Journey.
And in all interviews, stories, ect he always came across as a class act.
I guarantee this promo was not from him. I love it when he said it was so hard to be compared to the best singers in Rock and Roll hitsory.
I saw him 5 or so time with Journey, should of been six as I had tix for their concert in nowheres MN (actually Morton) in 2002-3ish?
Which was cancelled to to extreme weather (heavy rain, 80 mph winds, and a tornado)

It was a 2 hour drive so I decided not to go because the weather. (It was outdoors)
I heard later that Augeri, and other members of the band came out to meet the fans afterwords. Class move.

I was also happy to learn that my money was reimbursed. , but still sad cause it would have been my last concert with Augeri
But I did see them 1 more time with JSS

It's the promoter that usually runs the show...rents the venue, hires the artist, and if necessary, advertises. Many venues today, especially casinos, have their own in-house promotions team. Management handles the contracts, and the artist just shows-up to play. Augeri probably had no idea.
