Guess this is old news, but I had no idea that Journey picked a Filipino guy to be their new lead singer (thanks for the heads up, B!) His name is Arnel Pineda and he has a ridiculous voice.

And here's a clip from CNN about how they discovered him: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nnNji6s3ck&feature=related

Wow, I had no idea Steve Perry was out! That dude sounds just like him. Another Ripper Owens story.
who the hell is Ripper Owens. Is that what you named your toots?
haha! yeah, i had to google it to see who he was talking about.
I can't wait to eat some lumpia, pancit, and chicken adobo at the Journey concert this summer.
We'll rock the barongs at the show
factor... no comment.
I swear Maria, if you don't blog more, I'm going to come to your house and stand over you with a ruler and smack your knuckles. No pressure though.
yeah, i heard through the grapevine that a certain mumbling bear ripped up his barong and possibly factor's too at little havana. it's all good :)
i know, i have been a MAJOR slacker. we have a bunch of new stuff coming soon! no need for ruler smacks...yet.
I don't think I need to say it but...
