DANNY VAUGHN
It can now be officially announced that Danny Vaughn will be the support act for JOURNEY's upcoming UK tour. Danny will be performing a 25 minute acoustic set opening for Journey, including songs from his new album "Traveller", plus his days with Tyketto and Vaughn.
Danny would like to thank old pal Jeff Scott Soto and all of the people in the Journey camp for the "fantastic" opportunity. Joining Danny on stage will be second guitarist and band mate Tony Marshall.
There is an additional little story behind this news. A couple of years ago both Tyketto and Jeff Scott Soto had gigs booked on the same night for the same town for 2 different gigs. Danny Vaughn invited the JSS Band to join them and for those 2 shows the crowd got a double bill for the same price.
Jeff promised to return the favor one day and was instrumental in getting Danny this support slot. Incidentally - Danny's first and best known band was Tyketto. when Danny left the group, the continued on for a short while with a different singer - Steve Augeri, as you know went on to front Journey.
