No they didnt sound more metal. They just rocked for me. The new incarnation may rock for others. I'm done. Is that acceptable to u? Who are u? God?

You were critical of the recent boots and I posted my review of the Indy show talking about the laughter my wife and I broke into during "Stone in Love". Shortly after I received a PM from Jeff asking me to give him another chance in Grand Rapids, he offered free tix and passes. I assume he offered you free stuff also, because you immediately wrote an open letter of apology to Jeff. Way to stick to your guns!
Actually no, that's not the way it went down at all. How it went down is this: I wasnt sure about Jeff in Journey after I saw them in WPB in July. I listened to another boot on here (maybe Indy, not sure) & still wasnt sure. Then Deano posted a soundboard boot. I played it & my husband & I were blown away at how awesome it sounded. Perhaps this is sappy but I had tears in my eyes listening to it. At that point I PMd Jeff to tell him how great I thought it was. He never initiated a PM w/me. I did. He wrote back to me but that's all I'm going to say about his PM b/c it was "private". I hadnt realized until I read Andrew's interview that during Jeff's early days w/Journey he was tired & had very little rehearsal. The soundboard Deano posted sounded a LOT different than the stuff I'd heard earlier. That's when I became convinced I wanted to see another show w/him as lead singer. I did & I loved it. That was in Nov.
I NEVER wrote an open letter of apology to Jeff (NOR did I apologize in the PM I sent him). Go check the archives if u need to but please get ur facts straight before u accuse me of something.
Jeff never sounded like a good fit for Journey. It only sounded like Journey when the BG vocals kicked in.
Ur certainly entitled to ur opinion on that. Not everyone shares it tho.
My pick KC doesn't look like he's gonna get the gig, but I'm not gonna get sick over it. Out!!!!
So what? What's ur point?
