Steve Perry left Journey in 1998 because he broke his hip hiking, and was putting off getting a hip replacement surgery. In 1998, they got fed up with this, and replaced him with a soundalike.

What if Perry had gotten the surgery in a timely fashion, and then gone on to tour with them for "Trial By Fire"?

Do you think he would have still taken a long hiatus?

Do you think he would have kept doing solo work, or only done Journey stuff?

Discuss.
