Journey Singer Nearly Collapsed In Terror Before Big Show
. The previously-unknown vocalist was hired in 2006 after guitarist Neal Schon saw him covering Journey tracks in a YouTube video. But nothing could have prepared him for one of his first appearances with the band, in Vina del Mar, a sold-out show which was being televised live across South America. Schon tells Rolling Stone: "We threw him in the fire, no doubt about it. Two seconds before we go, Arnel is like: 'Can I go home? I don't want to go out.' "It was fear and loathing to the max � but then he went out, and he went for it, and the audience went nuts." Pineda recalls: "I was terrified to death. It took years, but I survived it." more on this story Classic Rock Magazine is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
