Journey definitely needs to go their Separate Ways.
And stay worlds apart from one another.
Back to the Baby's JC.
@@serdip Agreed. I tuned out the bs of the last few years pretty well but the constant back and forth between Cain and Neil wore me out. The same goes for Hagar and the late great EVH. (rip) Just tired of hearing it no matter who was right or wrong
@shawncosmos5431 hagar arguing with himself.....lol.hahaha.
Obvious Alex has no interest....move on Sammy...go 55....lol.hahaha
@@DidntDoo Well stated…
I bet Steve Perry is wondering Who's Crying Now.
John and Ross were amazingly in lockstep on that song.
Chunkie, 😂🤣✌🏼😊
😂😂😂
😂
That's a good one lol
Steve is living large, drama free and still getting PAID !!! 😂😂
Yes he is. Steve Perry has a big controlling interest in Journey. All the songs they play live which are 99% of them have Steve's name stamped on them.
He is Journey!
Steve was the smart one.. He apparently saw things coming when he made that deal. Good for him. Steve P. had made some comment about the way Neal lived his life. I think he said he was “relentless“. Hard to deal with someone like that. Plays a mean guitar, but it does seem like all the troubles they had stems from Neal.
thats right ... ! 🔥
@@Cassie670566 Good try Cassie but it has always been and still is Neal's egotistic, narcissistic personality!
I think Neil is the common denominator in all the issues the band has ever had.
Correct
Seems that way. Look at all the people who aren’t in the band. The lawsuits, etc. The turnover of replacement players. It’s a shit show and I detect a spouse is behind at least some of it.
they can't have a healthy band if Schon is spending money like crazy. No band could stay solvent
Yep pretty much!
Literally and I’ve met him didn’t like him at all. JMHO.
Steve Perry must be glad he's out.
i agree
Haha’ yeah dude for sure ✌️
He gets a good chunk of the pie without all the drama and chaos. That's the dream.
He gets to relax, focus on his solo stuff, collect residuals.
the party's over.
The funny thing is, journey actually ended long, long time ago when Steve Perry left for the second time. What has remained since is basically a really good journey cover band 😉
You are exactly right. I've been a big fan of the SP version and have yet to hear anything done since he left the band.
Now we know why Steve Perry quit and never rejoined. Very disappointing to see one of my favorite bands growing up such a mess.
i bet steve perry is glad he left
And Ross and Steve...
Probably the reason why he left. All this was probably going on back then, only they managed to keep it all secret
He's been gone for years.
@@chriskelly6559 Yes, we know. We all know.
Steve knew he was getting older and his voice would change and he d get slammed if he stayed in the band and couldn’t do the songs Justice… he was very smart and got out at the right time..he was gone what in 89’?after the raised on radio tour?….a smart winger knows when his nasel area is getting worse, and or his voice starts cracking..or starting to not hold the notes as long or in pitch…. Steve’s a lot smarter than we think, he got out before he looked like a train wreck…..look at all the older bands still touring everyone has to” Tune down a key “ for their aging singers….
Neil and Cain seem to make up, Tour and then waste their coin on lawyers to sue each other. They are like a couple of bickering old ladies at the casino.
The lawsuit is prob just a first step to arbitration as a goal. Legally binding, and no need to drag anything out in court.
It’s not that simple. The problem seems to be coming from Neal’s wife causing all the problems. Neal’s wife is the Yoko Ono here.
This is a Neal problem. It’s that simple. Jonathan had to do this.
Agreed! Neal always had a mega ego, his way or no way🙄
@@christybradley4049 remind me, which one of Jonathan or Neal founded the band ?
This just proves Steve Perry was dealing with drama queens. So sad!!! Honestly i was done with this band years ago....but perry's voice never gets old....
The guy who had Ross Valory and Steve Smith ousted from the band? OK.
@DrTomoculus
Yea but steve seemed to learn and grow from his mistakes, remaining private and seeming to make amends with those other guys. We don't hear much about steve. I like not knowing much about Steve's personal life.
@@dupersuper6516 I'm mainly going from that Behind the Music from years ago, where it seemed like Journey's management and the band were bending over backwards to make the guy feel at home, because they knew they had scored. And somehow, he comes out saying he felt "isolated". And you can tell, as soon as he joins that band, is when members start departing one after the other. And then the final straw when he boots out Valory and Smith.
They're all old men now, fighting for their retirement. They won't have any left if they keep in litigation. But I personally lost a lot of respect for Steve Perry all the way back in 1986, when I saw Valory & Smith were out. I played in a Top 40 cover band that regularly played "The Girl Can't Help It", so I was almost "obligated" to do it. But I was done with them when that happened. I didn't know all the details, I just knew it was wrong. And that Neal and Jonathan went along with it, says just as much about them as it does him. So it's not even a band of people united together.
It's a bunch of suits with gig bags.
The only ones that weren’t drama queens were Ross valor y and Steve smith.
I was under the impression Steve had a hip injury and there was a quick fix and a “proper” fix and the band wanted him to do the quick fix. So he was out. I can clearly see Cain saying he had to call Steve and tell him he was out. I’ll have to find that interview or documentary. Steve never talks about it. The story is he just walked away. I don’t think it was that simple.
For so many years, I never really understood why Steve Perry left the band and never looked back. Now I understand. I would not want to deal with all this drama. I would prefer to live peacefully in a quiet area far from the BS that consumes the band.
Since the early days of Journey there's been multiple feuds, lineup changes etc and the only common denominator is Neal Schon, he's at the center of all of them.
I cant believe they let Steve Smith go geezus. One of the best drummers on the planet.
This is more than just a feud. It's about an alleged theft and/or misappropriation of corporate funds. In any other industry, Schon, if the allegations are true, would not only be fired but would be prosecuted for theft. Using personal funds is one thing, but using corporate funds for personal use without authorization is illegal. Like any other corporation, why can't Cain and Schon simply draw a salary and then submit expense reports for reimbursement, which would either be approved or rejected, just like any other corporation? Just because you are an owner of a company doesn't mean you have automatic license to use the corporate funds for personal expenses. The corporation is not an ATM for personal use.
Neal was using the band credit card for more cosmetic surgery and hair dye.
His wife is a big spender as well.
@@seanl67 Right! Neil should have never gotten plastic surgery. Men can age gracefully and they still look Hot. Now he Looks like he had his face stretched!! And, black hair dye will age our complexion, too. Unless you’re a 15 year old groupie!! LOL
I’m with Team Cain on this one. Neal is a melody savant and a world class player, but he doesn’t have good financial sense. He dropped out of high school to play with Santana, so he’s not exceedingly educated. How many Lamborghinis does he have now?
Now he’s got this dingbat wife, who strikes me as a money-grubber. Neal needs to grow up and get his spending under control. Cain should just take his cut and retire.
You would think that 1500 hotel fee and a personal security guard would be small money for what journey would be pulling on tour.
That is $1500.00 per night + Neal's extra (2nd) chartered plane!
I've had it with them. specifically with Neal and his wife. They make me gag to the point that I can no longer stand the sound of Neal's guitar.
I agree I believe Neil spends like it grows on trees. When you’re that rich you can never get enough. Sad! Glad Steve got out of that mess.
Neal is a narcissist and a spender-living a fantasy with his wife. If he wants to do that fine, but let HIM pay for it, not the company! It's not that complicated...
@@devinjeffrey275 except it is HIS band and HIS $. Jon pulled this same lawsuit before. I think it’s time to call it a day and not let this be their legacy. A legacy of lawsuits.
@@CherylBattista
It’s not Neal’s band.
Also, Neal has been doing the spending in question, not John. Listen, I love them both but beholden to the truth!
@@devinjeffrey275whose band is it if not Neal’s?
@@devinjeffrey275 it IS Neal’s band!
@@CherylBattista Neal and Jonathan are born one day apart from each other, don't know when that day is.......I take it Neal's proably March 30th, with a Moon is Leo apparently they say those born on the 10, 20th, or 30th have battle energy.....and I know a guy born March 30th, his planet is hell.
I’ve heard for years that Schon and his wife live a crazy “rockstar” lifestyle and spend insane amounts of money to support their lifestyle, with a lot of the funds coming from the Journey “company” funds.
You heard correctly.
🎯💯‼️
Anybody else remember this ..scandal? years ago where this DC guys wife disappeared, and he thought she had been kidnapped? In reality, she had left him to shack up with Neil. ...good times
Yep, I remember. Unfortunately, Schon’s current wife and her ex-husband were notorious con artists. Her story is an interesting one. I was bummed and disappointed when she ended up with Neil. And Cain’s wife is even nuttier. It’s a real soap opera.
And even Arnel was in the crosshairs of Neil a bit ago. It wouldn't be surprising if there were drugs or alcohol involved in this, too.
You mean Steve Perry sold 75 million records
I really like your comment cause I never bought a Journey album but, I did buy The Best of Steve Perry. Obviously, Journey just had to keep his voice.😂
Exactly!!! Steve sold 75 million.
Amen! 👏 and that's why Neil doesn't want to work with him haha. Great band but egos ruining it smh 🤦
I mean Augeri, Pineda & pre-Steve Perry Journey did contribute to that 75m albums as that’s over their entire existence, but he did sell a vast majority of that number.
Then why wasn't his solo career just as big? Not to mention the relatively less successful and very different sound of RoR after he pushed to fire Valory and Smith? It was a collab, not just the Voice of Steel that took Journey to their Zenith.
Anybody that’s been paying attention to Journey over the years knows that Neal is a guy who never grew up. You’re basically dealing with a 10 year old who never grew up. That’s why he’s spending so much. I’m glad Jonathan is being the adult here.
BINGO!
Loving Touching Feuding.
Na na na na na na..
Na na na na na,...
Na na na na na nee na na nahhhhh😁🤟🥃
@@steve-0493 Damnit its lodged in my head now, its bed time too lol.
Neil. It's a jerk behind it be real Steve Perry. All these other guys will tell you that. When you Hero about him. You know, it's all true about Neal. Bad person, not a good guy.😅
more like Lovin Touching Suing
Journey died when steve perry left....its just a rehash of a band
Journey is now called KARAOKE
Seriously? Would you say that to Chicago? Jason Scheff has been with them 23 years, and Cetera was just as hard to replace as Perry. Did they stop doing Cetera songs? Of course not. Arnel has been there 16 years, still bringing in fans, still making them money. Personally, that's who I'm paying to see.
@@betsysimek8955 Did Cetera write/arrange the music or just sing it? Steve Perry did it all!
@@ptlatham7488 Jason Scheff did all that for 20 plus years, but it's 'not Chicago without Peter', right?
I remember Journey having infighting in the past. I’ve been a fan since the 80’s I gotta say when Steve left I didn’t feel the same way anymore. However, I’ve kept up with them and Neil has been a common denominator in most of the problems that plagued them over the years. Yes he’s talented And he is a founding member of the band he never lets anyone forget it either. I think he’s Always had a big ego and I’m surprised the band has managed to last this long
So talented I never see his name come up on 'the best guitar players on the planet'. Sometimes, talent is only in one's mind.
@@betsysimek8955 🎯🎯
Yet again, thank God, Journey is supplying us with more episodes of "As the Stomach Turns".
These guys really know how how to provide us with a new definition of "Pathetic".
The first concert I took my girlfriend, later wife to was Journey \Loverboy in 1981 or 82. We still remember that concert with fondness.
It would be better for them if they would FAITHFULLY commit to settling their differences and DON'T STOP BELIEVIING or it will be LIGHTS out for them.
Neil wants all the money. At least I saw Journey when Steve was the lead singer
His wife too ! She is a huge part of this problem.
So much for the original lineup coming back
Original lineup or classic lineup?
@@deadliestassassin3092 classic with Cain, Perry, Valery, Schon, and Smith
That door was locked shut! Neither Steve Smith, Ross Valory, and Steeve Perry were invited to a single anniversary show to perform.
Smith and Valory's move to take over the property of Journey doomed both of them!
Perry, screwed over his bandmate's twice.
The comeback album that charted extremely well on adult contemporary stations with a tour slated booked. His mother passes away, which is understandable.
He informed the band he needed hip surgery and knew he knew that during the Trial recording sessions, he never disclosed he was having problems and needed surgery. Till they were to hit the road.
Tour canceled.
Once bitten twice shy.
Steve Perry wrecked what could have been something great.
Not Neal.
Neal is a big ass for the continued issues.
It is great that Cain and Schon can work on stage. They know the money is there, Neal needs to stop pulling the slot machine lever.
He will destroy what he and Cain created as musicians.
I know they can get past this!
Neal needs to stop spending.
@@azrocker06. Yeah. I’ve read all that to. Perry is looking back thinking God he’s not part of the drama anymore.
@shawncosmos5431 he actually had no interest for over 20 years, not due to the band issues it was he did not want to do the grueling tour. He prefers going out when he wants. He knows he can't hit those high notes anymore.
He was given a chance to go up and perform at the RRHOF. He said it is Arenels position, and he is the front man. He has been and will continue.
All of the lineup changes throughout the decades make sense now. Just imagine being Perry...and constantly being hounded with the question, 'why don't you go back to Journey'. Imagine voluntarily putting yourself back into the middle of that mess. hehe. In the past, I have heard that NS 'lives it up'. ..but for a longtime bandmate/friend to sue you over your spending..that shows that it has to be true.
No wonder Perry left.
I worked with Schon when he was with another band. He is a very strange character!!!
Tell us more!
There are some bands that HAVE to tour to keep from losing everything they own.
And they wonder why Steve won’t appear with them. They probably been doing this forever and I know Steve is not partial to upheaval and just wants to get on with it.🇦🇺😘
Steve Perry is probably sitting poolside relaxing and glad he's not part of all of this.
Heck and we thought it was Steve Perry that was the issue.
I think perry carried them and they didn't care about his voice ..no singer of his caliber can sing 180 plus shows a year .he was trying to preserve himself and was thought to be a pain in the butt....
@@patrickking9181 With an unheard of, iconic 8 octave voice would you abuse it? Steve knew how to preserve it. Since the hits were mostly Steve's voice, lyrics, and Steve's productions I'd say Steve carried them - still do to this day! Would your band even want you to abuse it?
I’m reading these comments. Many ignorant ones. This is not a Journey problem. This is a Neal Schon problem. Don’t believe me? Go back and read all the interviews from their old manager who invented Journey. He has bad things to say about Neal Schon the human being. He’s a dirt ball.
One of Neals issue with Cain is partly political believe it or not. Cain is a hardcore conservative and Neal is pretty far left. The same thing happened to grace slick and Mickey Thomas from Jefferson starship.
I just saw them in Cleveland on Tuesday & it was amazing. You would never know anything was wrong! Just wow.
good to hear.. am scheduled to see a show in a couple of weeks and this was my first thought.. thanks.
The two of them drop the issue at that stage door. They know they can not do what happened with VH on that reunion tour.
They want to give it to the fans on stage.
Keep it off that playground they love, the stage.
@jenb8128 hey, Van Halen could play well on the 1984 tour in spite of Eddie and Dave feuding out of view.
I agree. I was thinking that they looked genuinely happy and enjoying themselves on stage.
Journey is just a nostalgia band. The real Journey ended when there was no more Steve Perry. Neal Schon thinks too highly of himself and all the newer crap he plays. I agree with Steve Perry's take on Journey, to handle Journey as a business based on the empire they created, while remaining a defunct band that's not playing anymore. I know as a fan of the real Journey, they became a parody of the former band they once were, when they continued w/o Perry. Age is a real thing and all bands have an expiration date, whether some of the members and clueless fans think so or not. Rock is a young man's thing. Look at how ridiculous Metallica looks and sounds now. It's just a cash grab for them now.
"Clueless Fans"? You underestimate SP's enormous fan base! They still turnout to hear SP songs!
Think Neal would still do those songs if fans didn't want them, or would buy tickets if they DIDN'T do them? or if Neal had made new 'hits'?
There's many older bands still gigging!
Somewhere, Ross, & the two Steve's are smiling. Isn't Neil's wife the one who was once kicked out of the WH? If so, nuff said. I see the source of the issue.
Yes, she was in the first season of real housewives of DC and they (her and the ex-husband) somehow got into a WH reception uninvited. Guys can I make a suggestion. Take a page from Queen's book. There are five equal shares of everything. No one is the managing member.
And she ran off with Neal after a show for 7 days, ghosting her husband throughout that time span. She's the common denominator in this.
The band was over when Steve Perry left. Only Neal is left from OG Journey. It’s a tribute band now. Faux Journey.
NEVER get the old ladies involved. EVER. This is what happens every time. Its such a toxic ingredient that its destroyed the biggest bands ever.
Steve Perry turns out to be a genius - sing a bunch of cool songs and walk away! Pure genius!
Their " legendary accomplishments" did not happen with the present band. It happened between '77 - '86. Then again in '96. I can't name even 1 song the current band has had a hit with.
Neither can anyone else, save for a few guitar players!
I've gotten everything I need from this band. The drama is too much and I consider this to be a post-Journey era.
Journey? Oh ya that band Steve Perry was in
Perry, Cain, Valory and Smith should get back together and find a guitarist that fits the style. Perry, Cain and Schon all have rights to perform as Journey.
Lincoln Brewster for guitarist. He played for Steve in between.
Perry, Cain, Valory and Smith would work!!
They’ve seem to forgotten the fact that they have one of coolest jobs in the world. It’s a slap in the face to any struggling musician/band/artist. Be grateful for the opportunity you’ve been given!
I’m with Cain on this one. Unfortunately Neal is really into “The Image thing”. He’s been married numerous times. Has to pay child support. Has had multiple plastic surgeries. He enjoys an extravagant lifestyle. Cain is much down to earth from what I’ve seen. So he’s probably concerned with Schon blowing through all of their money. I don’t blame him.
Yep.
I actually feel bad for Deen... He screwed up pretty bad a few years ago but I’m convinced he got clean and straightened his life out . And this is his reward. Schon and Cain constantly at odds…. Jeez
I wonder how Def Leppard feels when they are backstage
Joe Elliott brags about how Def Leppard members are loyal to each other. The nutsy Journey story today pretty much proves it.
@@AsHatSelfieStick oh I meant since they are touring together, I wonder if there’s tension backstage lol
@@kissfanatic2654 No bad vibes from Jon - he isn't like that!
Neal is though!
My understanding, Neil schon has been the toxic one for years, even during the days with Perry
I bet schons goal is for him to be the only one left from the original lineup so he has all control
The common denominator seems to be Schon. Maybe I am wrong but we have ALL wondered why Steve could have walked away. When you are young anyone can have issues but in their 70"s?????
Agreed. Neal needs to grow up.
It's Neal's wife. She is breaking up the band. She's the Yoko Ono
I feel Neil’s WIFE should be included in all the spending, as well. I’m sure she enjoys living the “Rock Star” lifestyle too!
I’m sorry but Journey is not Journey without Steve Perry, his voice is something very special and no one fills that void
move on...with or without SP journey band must be continue..they need money to finance..just accept no permanent in this World. everything is faded
Who wrote the songs?
Please excuse my ignorance, I'm just here for the drama...
Yep.
His voice sucks now
So, their first three albums don't count? JOURNEY lost it when Steve joined the band.
Journey were so good together. With Steve great foundation for the most notable selling albums/records. Touring on the good music with Arnel singing still making money is awesome. But, everyone over 70 now (except Arnel) maybe it’s time to stop.
All the problems keep going back to the root cause of many band problems, the guitarist. Goes back to their first keyboard player, then to singer Perry. Their current singer is willing to leave at anytime.
All those people that blamed Steve Perry for being the problem must be feeling pretty stupid right about now….and Neal- enough with the Botox.
Journey without Steve Perry is irrelevant. Only one original member left. Neal should just do solo work.
Steve Perry was not original.
Journey is over . The band is very close to only having one original member left anyway . So just call it a day already .
Neal is the only remaining original member since they fired Ross. Journey has not had more than two original members in the band since 1980.
Neal is broke spent all his money on plastic surgery 😮
Spent a lot on his wife as well. She's a big spender just like him.
A thought occurred to me earlier, the alleged coup by Steve Smith and Ross Valory. Was there really a coup, or did Neal just want to get rid of anyone who he considered 'equal authority'? Was Ross not a founding member, just like Neal? So now, he's got exactly what he wants, what he sees as HIS band because he's the only founding member left. He can hire and fire at will because there's no one to challenge him, spend as he wants because he's the 'president' of Journey, with no one to answer to. Maybe Cain isn't the real bad guy here. Perhaps hiring a forensic accountant would be the best way to go. Let someone with no vested interest come in and examine the books for the last decade and see what happens.
Cain is the good guy! Rarely at odds with anyone!
It's sad when senior citizens act like high school children.
Spoken like someone who has no clue about adult lif 😂🤣
I think when Neil started promoting himself as Neil "Magic Fingers" Schon, that really lost me.
So glad i saw them back in 1983 and 1984. I wouldn't pay to see them now, not the same. I would only pay to see them if Steve Perry did a guest appearance, but that won't happen. At least i have my 1980s memories.
The band members have always been biting each others butts for guys who have weathered the storms of the many band member changes.
I hope Jonathan and Neil make up and welcome each other back with Open Arms.
I don’t foresee any Lovin, Touchin, Squeezin.
They won’t
Guys please call it quits. It's time. Infact it's been time.
I know that i'm in the minority, but i liked the original lie-up the best...Gregg Rolie on keyboards and singing and Aynsley Dunbar on drums!
They were first. Had they not done their thing Steve Perry would not have had a Journey to join. And they were a excellent band. A different band for sure but loaded with talent..
Neil’s paying for 4 wives that’s enough to make anyone broke
Plus the current one!
He’s been married 5 times? Wow didn’t know that. That explains a lot….if you can’t get it right by 3 your the problem
Johnny Thunders putted it so eloquently: "Two things fuck bands up; drugs and girlfriends". 👏👏👏
And, egos!
@@pamlatham7032 Yes, you are absolutely right. But egos alone are mostly somewhat manageable. Now add drugs and gynocentric bored gold diggers to the equation and...🔥⚡💣💥
I’m so disappointed with Neal Schon. True enough Journey started as an R&B band built around Schon, but commercially was limping along. With the edition of Steve Perry, then Jonathan Cain, Journey realized its full potential. Maybe Neal should just go back to being a one man show!
And now you know why Steve Perry is no longer there.
What this video gets wrong - is Valory and Smith filed a counter suite. Court docs show Schon tried to cut Valory and Smith royalties once they both retired from the band. Neil is known to be a greedy guy always fighting over money to support his endless wives and luxury life style.
"Someday my lawyer will find you
Break those agreements that bind you
One lawsuit will remind you
How we torched it all and went our separate ways"
Brilliant

egos and $$!!!!! Pety publicly smearing the other..... Hands down someone believes he is the band and wants or in this case is taking most of the money. Band members take salaries while the band bank account grows but entittled band member dips his fingers in the band's pool of money
Running it like a business, except half the band has left! The people who mattered, know we get day players. These two men have ruined the band over what GREED!!!!!!
Each man is manipulated by their wives, both 21st century Yoko's. This rift won't get settled. Journey needs to call it a day.
I am glad I saw them in Pittsburgh for the farewell tour, just before his injury. They rocked ! Sorry to see them not sing again. Health is more important than……but still sad.
Neal seems to love living an extravegant lifestyle and has not problem showing off his wealth on his Instagram page. I recently read an article where he claimed to own in the neighborhood of 1,200 guitars, and these aren't your normal, run-of-the-mill basic guitars, but most are rare and/or custom guitars. On the low side, let's say that each guitar is worth $3,500....that's $4.2 million in guitars alone! Not to mention his taste in expensive cars (Ferrari's) and custom Harley-Davidson motorcycles.
Schon and Cain should just get a room already. Jeez! Enough!
You can use many of Journey's song titles and much of their lyrics to illustrate their ongoing problems as a band.
Sounds like Pink Floyd 2.0 There is nothing more saddening honestly than to see people who were so close and inspirational to others become estranged and bitter towards one another. It’s typically over envy, greed, or ego which makes it that much worse.
Neil's wife sounds like a Yoko Ono trying to stir up drama all the time!
Seeing journey on the summer stadium tour very soon. I’m so excited!
Old ass bands way past their prime in a public dispute. Pretty routine these days.
Neil's networth is $40 million. I'm sure he would pick up his balance of the capped fees. Neil was in the band before Cain... I believe it was an error making Cain 50% owner. Arbitration will be the end result like two years prior.
I seen this concert last Saturday in Pittsburgh, front row center...it should be sold out nightly.
No, I don't agree. Steve Perry and Jonathan Cain brought the massive success to the band with their songwriting and "The Voice." Neal Schon is a very talented guitarist but the financial success didn't come until Steve and Jonathan joined the band.
@user-js4go9hv3i Neil was there from day one he's the Sole, Original Member... seniority. You seem to be confusing The Tour money with Royalties from the Co-written hits. Two different pay outs. Also, it was proven last time that Cain was hiding Journeys Financials from Neil. Hopefully they can work it out.
👍
Sounds like they deserve each other!
Folks forget Perry is a gifted musician and songwriter in his own right, so it wasn't just his charisma and voice fronting Journey. He was dead right to talk about "not breaking the stone". Guess folks more or less have had a good time at their shows, but I always thought it was pretty cringe. To the end of my days when I picture Journey, it'll be with SP in front in his tails. I sure would never picture Cain and Schon at opposite sides of a stage because they're not talking. Or Cain trying to sing Don't Stop Believing lol. Or Schon messing with his face wtf. Sad because it's embarrassing. Was a time I would've emptied my bank account to see Journey but not this faux Journey.
Just chop up all band credit cards. It's not brain surgery.
Journey - stop being dicks to each other, go out and just have fun before you are dead, and do it while there are still some living fans left that give two eff's about you and your music. Life is too short. Celebrate the music and your fans. (If you need some cash I suggest that you release all of your albums as multi-disc boxsets w/ hi-def Bluray discs included. Boom. Cash flow.)
At least Queensrÿche isn't fighting like this, right? RIGHT? 😮💨
Not anymore, as far as I know.
You’d kinda think a guy doing a Rock music stream would know how to pronounce Schon.
Im done of these groups not growing up. Hats off to Steve though.
