It's been about 17 years since Steve Perry and Journey parted ways, and while the reclusive singer has rarely performed since then, the group's founding guitarist, Neal Schon, says he and his current band mates would welcome him with open arms if he wanted to sing with them again.
"The door has always been open, like I've said a zillion times," Schon tells ABC Radio. "People ask me every day, 'Are you reuniting?' Steve says, 'No,' and I say, 'You never know’.”
Schon explains that he and the rest of Journey, including current frontman Arnel Pineda, would be happy to have Perry join them for at least a one-off performance, if not more.
"[We] are always like, 'You ever want to come on and just sing a portion of one song, sing a part of a song with Arnel or sing the whole set, you're welcome anytime you want to come’,” Neal maintains. "[Arnel is] not threatened. Nobody's on any ego trip. We don't have any bad feelings."
