Would you pay to see Journey now that Steve Perry isn't the front man?

Quite possibly, sir. You can't turn on a classic rock station for more than two hours here without hearing them.

I think its definetly worth paying to see, I'm not the biggest Journey fan out there but I saw them a couple of years back and I thought they put on a good show... the question however is whether its worth paying 200 bucks for and I gotta agree with others there, no concert is worth paying that much for, except maybe led zeppelin

I admit, Steve Perry is the premier vocalist compared to Jeff Soto, but Soto is more than just an average vocalist. His stage performance/presence, is actually just as good as Steve Perry's was, if not even better than Perry in my opinion. Its worth seeing Journey just to be able to catch an appearance by Neal Schon alone.

Soto is a good vocalist with that hard rockers voice, making him better at the hard rock/metal sound, than with his work was with Journey. He`s best known probably for his work with Yngwie Malmsteen.

$200? No way. $35, I guess. I generally dislike live music, but I saw a 'new' Journey concert on TV, and it was darn good. Deen Castronovo isn't authentic Journey either, but I was a big Bad English fan and it's cool to see a drummer sing. 80's Journey is great.
