Earlier today, Journey singer Arnel Pineda posted the following message to his Facebook & Instagram:
“Once again, thank u so much everyone who came to Journey shows since February this year i appreciate u so much..and not only that, everytime that im on stage w/ the band, i feel this immense gratitude, humility and honor.. i am very aware of this-
no one more than me in this world feels so devastated about this…
its really amazing how 1 thousand right things you have done will be forgotten just cause of THIS..and of all the places, its in Rock In Rio…
mentally and emotionally, ive suffered already, and im still sufferring..but i’ll be ok..
so here’s the deal here now.i am offering you a chance now ( especially those who’s hated me and never liked me from the very beginning) to simply text GO or STAY right here..
and if GO reaches 1million…
im stepping out for good..are you game folks? let’s start…
God bless all of you and thank you once again to all of the fans and friends who believed in me since Day1 🙏🙏🙏 @arnelpineda.”
Neal Schon and Jonathan Cain have been feuding in Journey for the last few years, likely making Journey a difficult job for Pineda.
