Journey's drummer Deen Castronovo has announced he will be stepping away from the band's tour to prioritize his health. This decision comes as a surprise to fans, but it highlights the importance of well-being in the demanding world of music. Deen has been an integral part of Journey's sound and energy, so his absence will certainly be felt on stage.
In his place, drummer Steve Murphy will fill in for the remainder of November.
