In case you haven't heard, Steve Perry quit Journey along time ago. Also, you may have not heard that Journey found their new lead singer, Arnel Pineda, by seeing his videos on YouTube.
Videos of Arnel Pineda and his cover band, The Zoo, began showing up on YouTube at the beginning of this year. Neal Schon of Journey saw the videos and got in contact with Arnel. Arnel was flown out to the Bay Area, where he auditioned and a few months later was announced the new lead singer of Journey. The performance videos below are from Arnel's debut show with Journey on February 21, 2008 at the Viña del Mar International Song Festival held at the Quinta Vergara Amphitheater in Viña del Mar, Chile.
