Gotthard will continue without Steve Lee

Just read this. I knew they would continue and it would be kind of silly if they didn't with the success that they have had in Switzerland. I'm really surprised they haven't gotten to the states yet. Hopefully they can find someone good enough to replace Steve.

Hm...I wonder how I get my name in THAT hat...

It will be interesting to see if they find someone similar or go in a different direction.

and shawn - we would not show Gotthard any of those pics until after you get the gig!

I hope this works for them but that's some big shoes to fill.

I saw this on sleazeroxx the other day. Steve's going to be tough to replace.

absolutely. He gave the band a real identity.

Yea I'm thinking the same thing too. In a way it would be cool if the guy could be similar but then again it would seem like he's just a clone kind of like Journey has done for so long. Whatever though these guys are better than Journey

Gotthard and about a gazillion other bands are better than Journey IMO.

toho secretly plays Journey's Greatest Hits every night but wont bring himself to post it in the What You are listening to thread

Yea I kind of had a feeling he was a closet journey fan. Its ok. I thought they were corney when I was younger. About a year or 2 ago I thought what the hell lets give Journey a chance and I ended up eventually liking them. So its ok you can tell u.s

Yeah, his shoes are going to be hard to fill because he had such a unique voice. I too like Journey but I like The Storm (started by two former Journey members) more even though they only released two albums.

Steve Perry is looking for a band... hhmmmm....

I love Gotthard but I absolutely, unabashedly HATE Journey and most bands even tangentially associated to them.

THe one one exception being The Babys. I like them but the fusion of John Waite and Neil Schon in Bad English has to be one of the worst examples of a band being foisted on America by corporate radio. Ugh!

we believe you... we really do

For future reference, don't EVER get me started on Journey.

I'd actually rather listen to Dave Matthews.

You've been warned.

so you wont be coming to see Journey touring with Dave Matthews

I really hope Gotthard finds a suitable lead singer.

Steve is going to be hard to replace but I love their songwriting.

I think what he means is when it comes to Journey he goes a "Seperate Way". If you read between that, it really means that he's got Journey underoos.

Wait a minute. So what you're saying is that you hate Journey? Am I right in assuming that? I think that's what you're conveying but I don't want to jump to conclusions here.

Dude, Toho once got ignored by Perry when he tried to get him to sign his chest. He's been bitter ever since.

and then shouted 'Honestly' as Perry walked away from him!
