Meet the new Journey drummer – same as the old Journey drummer. Neal Schon has confirmed that former drummer Deen Castronovo is back in the band – as part of a two-drummer lineup alongside current drummer Narada Michael Walden. Schon tweeted out some rehearsal photos of the new twin-drummer lineup as the band gets ready for its headlining performance at Lollapalooza this Sunday. Castronovo played with Journey from 1998-2015, and before that played with Schon and Jonathan Cain in Bad English.

What’s the ‘definitive’ Journey lineup? How will they use two drummers?
