The 60-year-old resurfaced at some event in Pasadena recently, looking amused.
In 1998, Steve underwent hip replacement surgery.
In the last few years, the TV shows "Laguna Beach," "The Sopranos," "Glee" and the Charlize Theron 2003 film "Monster" have all used "Don't Stop Believin'."

That's funny. I got scared too but he looks great. I'd love to see him perform. "Don't Stop Believin'" wasn't even close their best song. My faves are "Separate Ways" and "Wheel in the Sky".

I was afraid to look too! These always depress me, but he looks great. Wish he was still with the band.

He sounds just like Sam Cooke - and he's rather proud of that.

Why in the world is he not singing? God gave this man the gift of a beautiful voice and it's wasted over some feud with his bandmates. How shameful!

We have a dvd player in the procedure room of the doctor's office I work at and we have a whole library of music dvd's/concerts on dvd and Journey was by far the most requested (well, up until the death of Michael Jackson). I love Steve Perry. Had a couple opportunities to see Journey with their new singer but I can't bring myself to do it. Just not the same without Steve Perry!

For some reason, he hasn't sung in years but his hip replacement doesn't affect his voice. It affected his touring, his stage performances and he had a weird feud with Journey which is SO stupid. One of the best voice in rock music ever. I spent my late 1970s and all 1980s with Journey - with Steve. Can't imagine another singer.

Journey is nothin' without Steve Perry. Sure, they got a new lead singer who sounds good, but it's not the same. When you lose your front man, the band is over. Same situation with Aerosmith right now. Without Tyler....no thanks. -Steve

I've also had the opportunity to see Journey w/ Arnel, and I can't bring myself to do it. Steve Perry is the man! As much as i'd love to see him perform and would love to meet him, it's better to go out in a blaze of glory at the top of his game like he did...rather than just fade away. Much love to you Steve!

I love Perry and feel Journey is nothing with out him..I love "old Journey" bacause they so totally rock! Having said that I was shocked by this pitcure, he looks weird with that bad hair dye and long face. It is just crazy to see your once young vibrant hot a$$ rockers looking old.Somehow seeing Ozzie looking feeble, Steven falling down and Perry looking old just isn't right. Oh well, better old than dead.Rock on!
