AAAH my husband s favorite artist. he hurt his hip in the early nineties and could not tour with the band. So after some time they decided they could not wait for him anymore and hired Steve Augeri to front the band. Mr. Perry as since released a greatest hits CD with a couple new songs but it lacked promotion I think. Like it. My husband says he gets asked often why he doesn't perform and Mr. Perry claims he is just happy living life. He has been rumored to be in the studio recording a song with David Pack. He has done a few guest appearances on albums but we are still waiting for him to come back. We would be on the front row if he did!

Steve Perry and Journey parted ways just before the tour to support "Trial By Fire" commenced. Steve had gone to Hawaii to get into shape for the tour and discovered after the first day he needed hip replacement surgery. The band asked to him to postpone it and do the tour. Steve decided it was his decision to make and went ahead with surgery, at which point the band hired Steve Augieri to replace him. Since that time, (1998) Steve Perry has basically spent his time enjoying his life and success. Steve Augieri recently (June/July 2006) missed several Journey shows with throat problems and Jeff Scott Soto temporarily substituted.

steve perry left journey because of illness which kept him from touring with the band. He has since done nothing to speak of.

He fought too much with the rest of the band. Thought he was the only reason they had hits. Guess they sound OK now though.

i do not comprehend what occurred yet I do omit him. I reported him in San Antonio in august and it wasn't a similar without him. The singer they'd sounded ok, yet i imagine he's gay!
