確かに、Jeff Scott Sotoは、悪いボーカルじゃないけど、 JOURNEYには、合わないような・・・。
そういや、前のアルバムでSteve Augeriが、 あんまり唄ってなかったのよね。
だって、メイン・ボーカルがいるのに、 他のメンバーが唄うって、やっぱり変だよね。
その後も、ライブでの口パク疑惑とかもあったから、 変だなーとは思っていたのだが・・・。
もしかしたら、ずいぶん前から、喉が悪かったとか・・・。
下記の通りです。(良いのか?これ???)
July 6, 2006 JOURNEY FORCED TO MAKE LEAD SINGER CHANGE ON NATIONWIDE TOUR
Jeff Scott Soto to assume JOURNEY lead singer duties starting on July 7th in Bristow, VA due to Steve Augeri throat infection
July 6, 2006 -- Due to a chronic throat infection, Journey's lead singer, Steve Augeri, has been forced to leave the band's current nationwide tour with Def Leppard. Jeff Scott Soto, who has previously performed with Journey guitarist Neal Schon, will assume the band's lead singer duties starting with the July 7th show in Bristow, VA. Steve Augeri's condition will be closely monitored by his physician to determine when he may be able to rejoin the tour.
According to Journey, "Steve's been suffering with an acute throat condition since before we kicked off the tour with Def Leppard. We were hoping he'd be in well condition to handle the rigors of the road but unfortunately it appears to be a chronic condition requiring total voice rest. We all wish Steve a speedy recovery."
