No, this is another internet myth. As of early 2012, Steve Perry was preparing to go into the studio and record some new songs. Since then, Perry has also been seen attending sporting events and has been in contact with at least one member of Journey, so no, he has not died.

He is alive and well and enjoying retirement in Del Mar, CA. He just celebrated his sixty-first birthday on Jan. 22, 2010. He has been singing backup on other people's albums of late. Rumor is that he is working on one of his own. When Arnel, Journey's new front-man, was on Oprah, Steve called to wish him the best of luck. Still a classy guy, and judging from a recent photo taken backstage at a U2 concert, still a cutie-pie!

He lives in Los Angeles as far as I know. People see him around town from time to time especially at Dodgers games.

He has been reported to living in either San Diego close to a beach and in Fresno. He was selected as one of the artist for a new CD coming out next month in the 'very best of' collection. The picture is awesome! He is singing again and supposedly been playing his music for friends and such to get feedback. What he doesn't realize is, his true fans would be the positive feedback he's looking for. His voice will always be unique and special.

No. He had several injuries from his performing days with Journey (including a hip injury that was one factor why he left the Journey tour in 1997 and ultimately left the band), but he is very much alive and as of January 2012, was reportedly getting ready to record some new songs.

No. The internet is the home for many rumors, but there is no evidence that Steve Perry has died. He has battled some health issues, including severe Arthritis, which has sometimes kept him out of the public eye, but he is very much alive.

Steve Perry left Journey in 1998 after a hip injury he got while getting in shape in Hawaii for the Trial By Fire Tour (which didn't happen due to his resignation.)

Is the original lead singer of Journey dead?

Steve Perry is alive. There was some disagreement and there is now a new singer. Actually, Greg Rolie was the original lead singer of Journey. He is alive and well, entering the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Santana. Robert Fleischman was the next lead singer, even Neal Schon sang some lead before Perry joined the band. The band was founded in 1973, Perry didn't join until 1977.


How can you get to meet Steve Perry from the band Journey?

Steve Perry has not been with the band Journey for a while, and by most reports, their parting was not especially friendly. While many of his fans wish they could meet him, it is rare for fans to actually meet their favorite performers. But it does happen sometimes, usually under a particular set of circumstances: when the performer is on tour. Unfortunately, Steve has not been doing much touring, due to health problems. He is supposed to be recording some new material, so perhaps he will tour again. This is important because when performers tour, they often link up with a local radio station, and fans get a chance to win tickets, or win backstage passes to meet that performer. Right now, Steve Perry is not making many appearances, but you might want to continue to monitor his website, so that if he comes to your area, you could possibly get to see him.

Steve Perry, who calls from his home near San -Diego. Perry, who's finally started working on his first album of new material since leaving Journey, doesn't want to talk about the vocalists who've followed in his footsteps, Pineda included. "I only know that they've been through three guys," he says, "and I've never heard any of them. I stay away from it, because it's really none of my business now. We have children together, which are the songs we wrote, but that's about all."
