Hello everyone. This is Steve Perry. As you are aware I have yet to launch my own web site and Fan Asylum is still the only credible site for official statements from me. Once again they have kindly allowed me to post this statement. It has been brought to my attention that there is a rumor circulating that I am reuniting with Journey. I want to go on record as saying that I have no such plans whatsoever to do that. What you have heard is only a rumor. I’m truly sorry for any disappointment this rumor may be causing.

I also would like to say that your faithfulness continues to warm my heart.

Thank you so very much,

Steve Perry

Thanks everyone!!

Cheers and thanks to everyone who gave me a Shout over the weekend. It's much appreciated.

I can't believe it; just my luck to NOT be online when it happened.
You guys are too much though. . . .

Journey concert - Hammersmith Apollo - Wed 14th March 2007

The Journey concert last night at Hammersmith was outstanding. Loved hearing all the old favourites and looking forward to getting to know the new stuff . . .

It seems like the band loved it when the audience joined in, very loudly.

Neal Schon's guitarwork was AMAZING and Deen Castronovo's voice was a relevation. Jonathan, Ross and Jeff also were great. On the whole, Journey seriously rocked the house.

The few die-hard fans who stuck around to the end were lucky enough to meet Jonathan Cain who generally interacted with all by shaking hands, taking pictures, signing autographs etc.

We were disappointed that Neal Schon was nowhere to be seen, and Ross Valory & Jeff Scott Soto did not take the time to chat with the few fans who waited patiently.

That said, no one could fault the band's energy last night. It was a great concert.

Oh yeah, and by the way Brian May (Queen) was in the audience too.

and lastly. . . most of you know that I am a huge Steve Perry fan . . and yes, Steve I continue to miss you.
