TMZ caught Journey drummer Deen Castronovo in Washington D.C. this week and asked him about the reunion rumours with former singer Steve Perry:
Says TMZ: "Journey the band may get back together, because not only Steve Perry has jumped on stage for the first time since 1995 in Washington D.C., but we caught Deen Castronovo in D.C. at the same time!"
Steve Perry surprised the audience at rock band Eels' May 25th show in Saint Paul, Minnesota, joining the band to perform the Journey classics "Open Arms" and "Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'". It was Perry's first time on stage in 20 years. Fan-filmed footage from the show can be seen below:
As the news of Perry's performance began to circulate, current Journey frontman Arnel Pineda posted two messages on Twitter (here and here) celebrating Perry's return to the spotlight:
"He should come back. His voice is still there. Missed that voice.""He can take over, too. It's his righteous (rightful) place anyway. Wanna see them happy together."
