An Amazing Journey
25th January 2008
Apparently the rock band Journey was looking for a new lead singer, and found him on YouTube. I read about it in the Wall Street Journal, which unfortunately hasn’t dropped it’s paywall yet (c’mon, Rupert, get with the program), but the guy sounds amazingly like Steve Parry. Proof here and here. And you can search YouTube for Arnal Pineda and get a lot of the material that’s been posted on it.
Speculation is that YouTube will be the audition venue of choice very soon, if it isn’t already.
