Steve Augeri

Augeri had perhaps the most thankless job in rock, stepping in to replace Steve Perry in Journey, and honestly he handled it with grace and a remarkably faithful tone that kept the band touring and relevant through a tough transitional era. Fans can be brutal about anyone following an icon, but his voice genuinely carried those arena anthems live for years. The reported vocal struggles that eventually ended his run there were a sad way to go out, but it does not erase what he gave the band. I respect singers who take on impossible expectations and still deliver night after night; that takes real heart.
