Dennis do a tour with Steve Augeri ...two of my favorite vocalists in one night. :) Think about it, neither of them are road-dogs so their scheduling preferences would be mutual and it would be a great night of music.

I'm quite sure that Steve Augeri's "touring" days are over. I doubt he'll ever do 40+ shows in a year ever again, let alone the multiple nights per week that a tour mandates. Besides, sharing the stage night after night with Dennis DeYoung and his pristine, almost incomparable, voice probably wouldn't be the wisest idea. Steve should continue to do whatever workload his voice can handle, and I think that's what we're seeing now.

Dennis rarely does multiple nights a week, if ever. Maybe 1-2 nights a week and only 10-15 stops. Nothing huge...Steve could also take a few tips from Dennis on how to preserve a voice 8)

and Dennis could get tips from Steve on what type of jeans to wear with a blue button down shirt with a white T underneath.

Steve was here in Wisconsin for 2 nights in a row in July. He was in town again last month, I was at that concert and thought it was a great concert. I know he'll be back here again, he's hoping for Summerfest!

I wish someone posted this before I saw his show. We were able to meet and talk to him after the show for quite awhile. I thought he was very, very nice.

DDY doesn't tour like Styx or Journey. I don't think he wants to, and hasn't wanted to for decades.j

Augeri and Chalfant should get together. Dennis is better off on his own.

I think a Dennis DeYoung / Rodger Hodgson show that Froy was suggesting a few years ago was a great idea.

Oh, well, my dream lineup is still Dennis DeYoung/Steve Perry, but that ain't happening.

I have always thought something with Roger Hodgson would be really cool, or something with Rik Emmett. They are all "signature" voices from the heyday of their individual bands.

ETA: That sort of tour would play well in both the USA and really well in Canada. Dennis is no stranger to success in Canada.

Love Rik with and without Triumph. One of the best things to come out of Canada.

I was in Jersey when Rik opened up for DDY, for me it was a dream come true! Rik is still great! I give anything to see Dennis DeYoung/Steve Perry!

Well, maybe after all three of you die...There is no way Perry will ever tour again.
