Steve Perry has shut down new rumors of a Journey reunion. Hopes spiked after Jonathan Cain mentioned in an interview that Neal Schon had invited Perry to join their upcoming Final Frontier tour — and that Perry “didn’t say no.” Fans took that news and ran with it, but Perry quickly stepped in to cool things off once again.
Steve Perry said he’s aware of the chatter but quickly cleared the air: he’s not rejoining Journey. He thanked fans for the continued love and that he understands why people still hope for a reunion but emphasized that he’s focused on new creative work that reflects where he is today.
Steve last performed with Journey back on November 3rd, 1991, in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park. Meanwhile, Journey will go on with their Final Frontier tour, kicking off February 28th in Hershey, Pennsylvania, including stops in Austin and Laredo.
