Has anyone seen that new Burger King commercial where they're taking the Whopper and the Big Mac to those foriegn monk guys for an unbiased taste test? The one guy looks EXACTLY like Arnel. Surely it's not him, but man, I mean EXACTLY.
Anybody seen it? If not, when you do, take a look. It's a pretty fast shot but you'll know it when you see it.

I saw it last night, and I thought the same thing. I rewinded it several times on the DVR, and it looks excatly like him.

Here it is. It's very quick, but pause it at 5 seconds in. He's holding a burger and getting ready to take a bite, I think.

Hey, the guy probably just wants to keep working while Journey is not touring. Can you blame him?

Maybe he and SP can do a duet for BK against the Whopper and call it "Don't Bite It"! "It'll do your heart no good".

Arnel probably got a call from Steve Augeri saying, "Hey dude, don't quit your day job." So Arnel took his advice and did the Burger King gig.

That'd be good advice. If he's gonna keep touring, singing that catalog, he's gonna need a lot more than a Whopper. Good luck to him.
Neal goes through singers like Plaxico Burress goes through bullets.

I saw it--and told my wife---wow that looked like Pineda. Surely this dude is not in a fast food commercial!..

What's Arnel doing in Chang Mei? When I was there, 60 % of the entertainment workers had AIDS. Save that wrapper Arnie, you might need it.

You, know he doesn't look like Arnel to me...... but my eyesight is not the best anymore so it could be him.

It showed the "Arnel" look alike and you could see him much more clearly. Definitely not him. This guy has a pretty big mole on his right cheek about 1 1/2" below his eye and on the clip this morning they showed him smiling before he took a bite - teeth weren't exactly great looking
if you know what I mean. So I guess for now, Arnel is keeping his "night" job!

Stevew2 will begin asking for royalties after the first of the year for anyone using this phrase.

You must mean Jeff Scott Soto dont you? Steve Augeri was with Journey for quite a while.
