JOURNEY Singer Gets 'All-Clear' To Perform In Milwaukee Tonight - Nov. 16, 2012

Legendary rockers JOURNEY have released the following statement:

"JOURNEY's lead singer Arnel Pineda has been given the all-clear from his doctors after receiving medical treatment for a severe laryngeal and esophageal inflammation, which forced the band to postpone several shows earlier this month.

"As hoped, the tour resumes tonight, Friday, November 16 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin at the Bradley Center, as originally scheduled."

Arnel, who hails from Quezon City in the Philippines, joined JOURNEY in December 2007. He replaced for Jeff Scott Soto, who parted ways with the band earlier that year after stepping in for Steve Augeri, who had to leave the band in 2006 for medical reasons.

JOURNEY's latest studio album, "Eclipse", featuring Arnel Pineda, was released in May 2011. The Walmart exclusive debuted on The Billboard 200 album chart at No. 13.

Recently released is JOURNEY's latest compilation, "Greatest Hits - Volume 2", which was compiled by the band's former singer, Steve Perry.

Good to hear! Arnel is the man! If Journey boots him, he could go solo like Joe Lynn Turner etc.

The fires been out for a while for these guys. The guy sings good and all but somehow he's not the right one for the band. I'm Latin and I think the singer should have been an American. Whether he's black,yellow, white or brown it doesn't matter. It used to be an all American band. No offense to other countries. I mean when Loudness got an American singer to replace the original I was pissed cause loudness really is representing Japan. I started to appreciate their culture even more cause of Loudess. Can u imagine if the Beatles replaced would have replace one of the members with an American. But Arnel does kick ass. But not for Journey.

I have tickets for tomorrow nite. Looking forward to Loverboy. I know it's not metal but it rocks. Steve Perry cannot sing anymore. That's why he's not out there. If he was in the band, they'd be selling out stadiums. Arnel does a very good job replicating Steve Perry. Also a shout out to Steve Augeri. Steve thank you for keeping Journey alive for those eight years.

You have to admit the Loverboy debut was a pretty strong album for the time. How can you go wrong with Turn me Loose, The Kid is Hot Tonight and Lady of the 80's.
