Arnel, Please share what is going on with your biopic. Perhaps covid put the halt on things. I did share my screenplay about you with you a few year ago. My contact information is on the cover page, but my e-mail is now different. It is joeziephd@gmail.com Joe Zielinski

My dearest Arnel, When I heard Journey was touring again, without Steve, I thought, "What's the point?". I never dreamed they
would find someone as good as him. I have always felt like Steve Perry was the best male vocalist in rock, ever. I watched your documentary once and then a second and third time. Each time I watched it, I could see more reasons why you got the job. You just blow me away! You fill those shoes perfectly. You're singing for all of us, you know. All of us musicians who are good but were never discovered like you. So you keep belting out those songs, my friend. As soon as you're back on tour and it's safe, I will be there to cheer you on! You deserve all this!
May God bless you as much as your music has blessed me. Hugs! Linda Lois Wilson

Great Arnel! The voice resemblance is unbelievable. I came to think at one time, that the band Journey would never find a voice like Steve Perry. And finally they found Arnel Pineda !! I hope you stay until the end and continue to thrill us with your magnificent voice! Arnel, we are living in difficult days where a pandemic affects the whole world. Unfortunately we have already lost people close to us due to this pandemic !! I hope God will soon allow a vaccine to be tested and approved and distributed worldwide! And that the Journey band show continues to cheer hearts !! Greetings great friend !!

hello arnel.. i want to start off and say i loved you sinbce the first day i saw you ! i have a couple of questions ,,, When you were on the opera show and you sang dont stop believing when you sang in the night you held that note for like forever and you had the audience blown away ,,, i thoughtbthat was the best perforance of that song to date , why havent you dont it that again ? i know you have so much respect for steve perry and youve delt with people not saying nice things about you but they dont get it and youve never claimed to be perry or ever stood in his way if he wanted to come back ,,,, perry has a very different sounding voice and hes also 71/72 yrs ... voice is still great but not as it was 20 yrs ago... but have you been in contact with steve ? have you thought about doing a duet with him ? i think that would be the biggest shocker to the world and between your God sent voice and perrys style the two of you would have the biggest hit to hit the airwaves ! i love your voice and youve been an inpiration to me and to the world ! youve been part of journey for almost as long as perry and made your mark and earned your star on hollywood blvd....

Hello Arnel, I watched the documentary several months ago and was amazed at your "journey" to become lead singer of Journey. Opportunities like this usually don't come to people out of the mainstream of life, so for this to be given to you is a true blessing from God. And I do believe everything we do in life is.planned by him. Follow your heart for the rest of this journey, as it is God speaking to you...wherever it may lead. I am so happy for you and the entire band. Now that the 2020 tour is cancelled, I hope you all are taking much needed rest, but also writing new songs. It's a time of renewal, creativeness and regrouping. Take care to all of you!

HI Arnel, I watched the Journey Documentary last night with my family (it was my Mother's Day present). I was nothing short of amazing. Let me preface this by letting you know that my mom is from the Philippines and my dad is American. I grew up in the States, but grew up with a lot of Filipino culture around me. I have two kids now and I really want them to know about The Philippines and our culture. They learn a lof from my mom (their La), but watching the doc. last night with them was really, really powerful. Glimpses of PI, hearing Tagalog, experiencing your story, and seeing the Filipino pride grow as your U.S. tour went on. WOW! We live on the East Coast and they were floored with all the Filipinos in Cali (I remember being surprised by that, too when my husband and I moved out there). Anyway, thank you so much for being you! Really rise up to your dreams and living! We love your energy and of course, your voice! You are an amazing role model. Keep on singing and inspiring! You rock!!!!!!!

I truly hope that the concert in Nashville doesn't get cancelled because me and my sister are going and this will be the first time that we have done anything together. You see we were both given away at birth and we just found each other 2 years ago and the Journey concert will be the first time that we will get to spend time together. Journey is my all time favorite band and I think you are wonderful. On the documentary that was on Netflix you blew me away but anyway my sister bought tickets for us to go to the concert in August for my birthday and it is a blessing to me to be with my sister and Journey at the same time. God Bless all of you and please don't cancel.

quick question...I see your voice is changing ...are those notes difficult to hit? what kind of mic are you using for live performance? thx Kathleen ..I also am a vocalist and my song I sing is "Open arms" ...thanks

Hello po Sir Arnel! Thanks for giving PH pride and honor through your talent! Kudos po! Pray always! 🙏🏼❤️

Anne • 4 years ago

Hi Arnel, how do you even reach a very famous international singer if you’re just an ordinary person who is admiring them from a very far distance? Parang ang hirap mong abutin para makilala. I am a Filipino but has been living in Toronto for about 15yrs now. Sana I can find time and money to see in person on your 2020 tour. Sobrang galing ng boses mo. I think nahilo na ko watching your videos in youtube at feeling ko crush na kita. Sorry di ako stalker. Just admiring your rock and roll voice and the way you give 110% effort on all your performances. Very happy you finally found your break in the music scene. Best of luck and God bless to you and your family.

Salamat madam

Anne • 4 years ago

Hello, salamat for your reply. I think masyado pa ko bata para tawaging “madam” 🤣. Pero I sincerely appreciate the response. I have just downloaded a lot of your songs and I listen to them in the car. Naghahanap ako ng album nyo Revelation pero siguro download na lang sa itunes. Wala na dito sa Toronto e. I still wish I can see and meet you in person someday. Mabuhay ka Arnel and more power to you and your voice! Never mind the bashers, marami kaming tumatangkilik sayo.

Greetings Arnel, I wanted to say hi again from me and Tiffany. We were engaged onstage with you at your Las Vegas show, Mandalay Bay. We're happily married now, celebrating our 4th year July 12. Today (July 3rd) is my birthday, and I'm releasing my first Rock Album, Shameless Rob "Between the Lines"!!! I'm having a party at my place near Seattle, WA. It would be really special if you took a listen to my music, and any shout out would be so appreciated! I have a second full length album in pre-production. Arnel, I'm so proud of your success, and wish you the best. I'd love to see you again, you're a special person! Here's a link on YouTube...

Peace and love, Shameless Rob

I saw you last night in San Antonio and I loved your performance. Your energy and stage presence is amazing! I've been a huge Journey fan for years . . . and Journey lives on . . .

Crystal R Smith • 5 years ago

Arnel, saw you in St. Louis a few days ago. AMAZING show!!!!! I am so happy you are part of Journey. You are so full of energy, laughter and love. Thank you for doing what you do! "Open Arms" is my wedding song... 22 yrs ago, we chose that song not just because of our love of Journey, but for the words in the song. After hard times, hurt feelings and loneliness, we found our way back to eachother. Never to separate again. 22 years later... here we are.... Still in love as we were all those years ago. Everytime I hear Open Arms, my eyes swell up with tears and my heart fills with warmth. Hearing you sing it live will forever be my favorite memory. Thank you. <3 from Illinois

Michelle • 5 years ago

Just saw you in Columbus Ohio this past Wednesday. AWESOME AND AMAZING show! I still get chills thinking about the show. You guys are FANTASTIC!!! Thank you so much for sharing your talent and making us smile!!!

the_real_sassy • 5 years ago

5th time to see you tonight....loved the show. As long as you tour, I'll keep coming. I wish you guys would do "After all these years" though! Journey really gives you your money's worth for the ticket price....I'll be waiting for next year's schedule!

Terrie Berigan Carlisle • 5 years ago

Just saw you in Milwaukee! Overwhelmed with joy! My husband always loved Journey. On the night he died from Agent Orange two years ago, as I left the hospital the FIRST song on the radio as I started my car was Separate Ways. How moving to hear those words, that he'd love me forever, on that night. That song keeps "playing" randomly, when I need him most. Arnel, you sing it beautifully! AND THEN! To be followed a tribute to the troops and the National Anthem, you had me in tears of thanks and with FAITHFULLY, prayer! MUCH love to you, your wife and your family! YOU ARE THE BEST!

Zach Coberly • 5 years ago

Another Journey tour, can we finally get I'll Be Alright Without You added to the set list? I ask every year for that song at the Virginia Beach, VA show. We would love to hear Arnel sing this! Perry, Augeri, Castronovo, and Soto have all performed this song live during a tour... it's your turn Arnel!
We always get a little bit of that song in Jonathon Cain's solo but we want to hear you!

PureCinnamonRoll • 6 years ago

Hello Arnel! I am doing a report on the Philippines and it says I have to choose a famous person from there, and I chose you! You are such an inspiration to all Filipinos around the world and it's like you're telling people to follow their heart and dreams! I love your songs ad the band! Keep on rocking! Thanks for the motivation!

Alberto • 6 years ago

Arnel, I was converted to a HUGE fan of yours since your debut in Viña del Mar in 2008. I was there and I could not believe my eyes and ears, everybody was like HS!!!! HS!!!!!!. As Deen correctly states, you breathed new life into this legendary band. I have seen once and again most of your videos with your Journey after Viña del Mar in youtube and I can't help getting deeply emotional every time I see them. Time after time, I can't help but just crying on emotion, especially with Faithfully and After All These Years. You brought charisma and feelings into a legendary band that was otherwise just this, a legendary band. As I writhe this, I recall Ross when he says to you in the documentary that Journey's live concerts had never been so successful before. God bless you in your future journey, whatever it might be. A big hug from Chile. And remember, you say that this band brought you back to life, but the opposite is also true. You are even.

edith cabus gayao • 6 years ago

Arnel, you are an awesome example of talent an perseverance in your incredible journey. I have a son in the US who is a singer song writer has been a lead singer to several band goes by name of Larry gEE, Has been plugging on for years and has looked up to you for inspiration. God bless you as you continue inspiring and sharing your talents. Here is one of Larry gEE video: https://www.youtube.com/wat...

Ginger Wilson • 6 years ago

Awesome voice and GREAT to see u and Journey doing so well. I just watched the Don't Stop believing Journey Men show and it was an awesome experience. Glad that you are a member; you are such a good person. I was happy to see you as a permanent member; it made me cry. I was happy to see your wife and child watching you in the audience. Glad you bought a home and put some of that money away for future when you have no jobs, etc. ... I had seen a few years back Journey got another lead singer and was happy to see you sing so much like Steve Perry. Awesome. I was a teenagers when Journey came out and I loved them always. Everyone loved them... and still do. Keep up the work. I prayed God will keep your voice strong and in perfect shape. awesome. I need to buy your new albums. and downloads.

stay true to your soul and to God.

LindaATX • 6 years ago

Greetings Arnel, from a new fan and supporter! You are a blessing to the world and a true inspiration to me. Just recently saw the Don't Stop Believing documentary and became aware of you and your amazing story. Journey was my very first rock concert back in 1981. But over the years my musical interests went in other directions, so I missed out on knowing about you until now.

I'm so thankful for all the puzzle pieces that fell perfectly into place and allowed you to have this opportunity to be known all over the world! Thank you for all that you do to spread love, peace and kindness, I greatly admire the beauty of your heart and spirit and character.

I love your new album and already got my ticket to your show in Dallas on Nov 17. See you then! Blessings to you and your beautiful family!

MM O'Connor • 6 years ago

Arnel, just watched "Don't Stop Believin' Everyman's Journey" documentary and I just wanted to tell you that I am so happy for you. I was stationed in Subic Bay from 87-90 and saw you play in Caljams. I thought you were incredible then. I saw the way you grew up and you are where you deserve to be. Journey was my first concert with Steven Perry. I have always been a die hard Steve Perry fan but you have earned your right to be the lead singer in Journey. Again, congradulations from some who saw you in your original element.

Yvonne Dagger • 6 years ago

Hi Arnel, My husband & I were at the Toyota New Car Introduction at the Las Vegas Speedway this past week. We were blown away by your performance and voice!!! The concert was fabulous! Thank you sooooo much!!! All our best always, Yvonne & Denis Dagger (Smithtown Toyota, Smithtown, New York)

Robert K • 7 years ago

Hi Arnel, I saw the "Don't Stop Believin' Everyman's Journey" documentary on Netflix last night and was blown away! You and the band are amazing musically but what was even greater was the genuine love displayed by you, the band, your family and fans. I've been a pro musician for about 40 years and your wonderful story with Journey really touched my heart. Thank you my friend! Wishing you and Journey continued success!

Arnel, We will see you with Journey at the Borgata in Atlantic City, June 17th. We have front row seats. I will wear my copy of the shirt I threw to you two years ago. It is maroon with silver lettering: The Tailors' Son on the front and Kuya Arnel on the back. I hope you can wear it during one of your wardrobe changes. Joe and Patti
