Journey Fired Deen Castronovo Following Arrest
. The drummer this week vowed to stay clean after being sentenced to four years' probation on six charges relating to a violent incident with his then-fiance in July. In the statement he didn't discuss his status with the band, although he suggested that a return to work was some time away - while admitting he'd probably be dead if the situation hadn't become a police matter. Now Castronovo tells UCR: "I was fired on August 10. I was terminated. I was in treatment at the time and I'm grateful I was, because that was heartbreaking." He adds: "Journey has a stellar legacy and I've tarnished that. They did the right thing. They did what they needed to do." He reveals that he had to call the band's manager to ask about his status, and that's when he was told: "Well, we've decided to terminate you." Read more here.
