Here is a very, very extensive interview with Steve Perry, an artist that can beat Axl Rose for being a recluse. His first in many, many years.

Some interesting things here. He talks about perfectionism in music that reminded me of Axl and CD. He talks about new material he's working on. He talks about Journey performing now without him. Lots of stuff. It's long, but it's worth the read.

Saw nu-Journey this summer. Don't really know any of their music except for you know what, but what I heard there didn't impress me much. The band and the new singer were pretty good, but to me it sounded like alright but terribly overrated 80s pop.

Journey isn't for everybody, that's for sure.

Yeah, but not all songs need lyrics that are deep, reflective, and melancholy.

Sometimes you just need a SONG. You just need that catch.

Think of Louie Louie?

I saw them several years ago with their first (I think) replacement singer.  Neal Schon was way better than I ever thought he was.  The singer was pretty good.  They were good enough that I watched another one of their shows on HDnet and it was pretty good too, though I admittedly switched channels for their new songs...lol.
