Steve's eventual replacement Arnel Pineda has an Awesome voice and it's great that he's so humble about his meteoric recognition and rise, plus Steve Perry's endorsement must have meant so much to him.

Perry has a phenomenal voice and Journey hasn’t been the same without him. I consider myself lucky to have grown up in their hay day.

Journey gave me a part of my heart that I had burried because of the way society was grooming us. Listening to Journey is so theraputic. My heart soars and my tears flow, it just happens. Thank you Steve and Journey.
