All of these dude’s play the charade to keep the fat checks rolling in. Greg Rolle bailed for honorable reasons (family). As for Steve Perry he was frugal when the big bucks rolled in. He was building turkey coops not long before his final success. He invested and saved so when he left he had no problem. Ross the bassist had huge IRS problems . Neil Shaun was a huge over spender and lived high on the hog with no savings. Pay check to pay check. Money in money out. Fast forward he still can’t manage money. That’s why he hammer’s the corporate card maxing it out and Jonathan Cain slapped a lawsuit on him just recently. Some things never change. If Shuan was forced to disclose his savings and investments, besides a home and nice guitars 🎸 his liquid cash available is likely to be $50 grand or less.
This explains why I don't remember Gregg Rolie's name. Their names were not really out there for quite a while. It was just Journey. From what I understand, Gregg Rolie was with them until about 1980.
Not only are these guys talented, but they are extremely handsome too, Steve Perry of course, Greg Rolie, and especially Neil the guitarist with those boyish good looks and beautiful smile! No wonder boyfriends of the screaming female fans would get jealous of the band sometimes! Lol!
The whole band was amazing. Steve's voice was really the best!! He must have really burned out to give it all ip because he looked liked he was having a great time
Man THIS was the best time to see a rock concert. And Journey are so good, on top of their game, so many great songs with harmonies. Greg Rolie on keyboards. Steve singing. This was pure rock. This must be the late 70s, do you also notice how everyone was skinny back then??
I have an appreciation for all of the Journey band members. They are very talented. Steve is the closest one to my heart. His voice and talent stood out for me. Always a fan.
50 years - 45 years since Perry. 🤯Wow Time flies. My 3rd concert after John Denver and Queen... but I saw them equally as much as John. My taste is eclectic .... Denver - Perry - now Bruno Mars. The three couldn’t be more different yet all three such great singer/brilliant writers and charismatic storytellers. 💗💿🎤
I was at the concert of all concerts. 1983, ORANGE ARENA- Orlando, FL. Bryan Adams, AEROSMITH, Sammy Hagar & JOURNEY. Bryan Adams- great band, great songs, great singer. AEROSMITH- poor, due to no Brad & Joe, Steven did not remember the words to Dream On. Sammy Hagar- well, Sammy Hagar. JOURNEY- had it all, they sounded just like their records on 10+. Each member had a time onstage alone. Each member took control and never let up. Steve Perry is one of a kind.
It’s the secret to longevity, but also the hardest thing: stay true to the vision of the band and check your ego at the door. These “early days” videos of various bands prove it.
Absolutely love Steve! Just from his speaking voice you can tell he’s a great singer! I grew up listening to journey but not as an adult I’m obsessed and have the biggest crush on 80’s Steve lol. He has the most amazing voice I’ve ever heard
That was one of the best interviews I've ever seen. I wish I could turn back time I'm 59 years old and as a teen Journey hit the right notes in my soul from the vocals to lead guitar to Rollies piano and keyboards . Just listening to bits of songs and the time this took place in this interview brings back these feelings and emotions as when I was a teen.❤️🥺
Gregg rolie is one very good guy and a badass singer as well just listen to gregg in santana he's the shit and i have lots of pic together rock on gregg Modesto ca. And roots 👍
