Journey needed a new singer but guitarist Neal Schon wasn't finding what he was looking for anywhere he looked. So he got on YouTube and discovered Arnel Pineda from the Philippines. Arnel is a lifelong Journey fan and it took some convincing from Neal over YouTube messaging that this wasn't a hoax and his life dream was in fact materializing. Eventually he believed it, flew to the states and is now the new front man for his favorite band in the world.
This is actually very similar to the plot of 2001's "Rock Star" with Mark Wahlberg. Hopefully Arnel can handle the fame and avoid the lifestyle choices that did in Chris 'Izzy' Cole.
Here is Arnel doing "Faithfully."
