Toronto Sun: Perry asks to rejoin Journey

[steveo777]

A few things happened when I read this article.

I discovered that I might be somewhat of a loon because I got a little bit excited, but then I read the comments and it reminded me how much I hate fangirls/boys of any kind, so I abandoned that. Scary...

Loon here....all it did for me is remind me of what an ass Neal can be as well as SteveO777.

Funny...I didn't see my name mentioned in the article.

We all know Steveo777 is the human equivalent of a pubescent walrus, but come on. Perry is fapping away, chilling out at sports events and lying in interviews (Uh... I'm recording. I'll be back. Baseball/motor bikes/my mom got me back into music etc. Neal is out there, working for it, and keeping the band alive. They're far from perfect, but at least they're doing something.

No, Perry is the ass here.

Thank you! I'll overlook what else you typed.

I seemed to have missed the part where Perry flew over to London to take part on the Classic Rock awards for Event of the year, awarded to Don't Stop Believin'.
Wouldn't that have been the perfect opportunity for him to steal the spotlight from Fro? Oh, that's right, since Journey is now more or less, "Arnel Pineda and Journey", there isn't much spotlight to steal.

Hm so I'm not the only one who saw a thread about perry supposedly asking back in the band (I doubt it) somehow turn into another "Neal is satan" thread.

[Don]

Wow, this thing has taken off. It's now being reported on Television and Radio stations across the nation. I don't know if that's a good thing or not. Now, Neal is going to have to answer that question over and over again.

If this is really true, it could spell the end of a lot of licencing agreements and new Journey DVD's that feature songs that Perry wrote/cowrote.

He'll be fine. No meltdowns on the horizon.

Yeah, nothing a bottle won't cure.

No Red, your not the only one to notice, but unfortunately that is what this place has become.

[Don]

I wonder if Arnel got usage writes taken care of for his movie? Could be trouble ahead.

LOL

Neal couldn't be Satan, the postion requires a master's. Does he even have a GED?

I think deep down inside Neal's a good guy, he's just a little confused sometimes.

[Saint John]

lol ... what continually gets lost in the mix is that the guy, whether he wants to rejoin the band or the band wants him to rejoin, can't sing for shit anymore. And that's why he doesn't. Period.

At least we know such is not the case with his sexual orientation.

He's going to get nailed to the cross for something he says.

He just can't resist....he'll say something dumb again. It's on a small timer...like, 2 dumb statements a week.

Blasphemy.

Nah, you're probably right.

[Don]

This is all Jon's fault. Why wasn't he supervising his bandmate? For shame Mr. Cain.

[swataz]

What a damn shame this is BS.

The mere fact that it is sweeping across multiple news sites all over the web right now underscores people's interest in a Perry-fronted Journey. Hell, Perry himself may have leaked the BS to gauge interest!

[timstar78]

For what it's worth, Classic Rock magazine has picked up the story....

[Don]

If people thought Perry was litigious before, just wait to see what happens if this doesn't slow down. And if this turns out to be true, those apprehensions Management had about getting permission for video promotion during the Wal-Mart release will probably increase tenfold for any future projects that require any type of arbitration between the band and Perry.

[Michigan Girl]

LOL ...Neal's going to look like Satan, regardless of what we have to say ...

Now Perry wants to rejoin Journey, according to guitarist Neal Schon.
Schon told The Daily Star: “He [Perry] seems to be enjoying the spotlight a little too much.
The fact is he’s no longer the lead singer. He walked out.”

In a magazine now?!? Someone should be in trouble for lying.
Certainly sounds like some idiotic thing he would say after the stupid quotes he allegedly
posted on his facebook page ... we'll see what he comes up w/this time ...

[Saint John]

This is what I don't understand ... Neal is being attributed as the source for Perry "wanting to rejoin Journey," but there is nothing in any of his quotes that suggests that. I think this is yet another case of a reporter assuming something.

[swataz]

Andrew shot this down early on in this thread, thanks for that by the way.

I wonder why this particular Perry rejoins Journey vomit seems to have legs.

OK Laura lets get the website warmed up with the denial from Perry,
Fear The Beard ..

Hi This is Steve Perry and I just wanted to respond to the news articles stating that I have ask to rejoin Journey
I'm here to tell you this information is false. We went our Separate Ways back in 1998 and I'm currently going to baseball games with my hat,
Thank You Don't Stop Believin keep buying the cds,

Agreed! I don't know what the initial 'reporter' used for the basis if the headline in the first place, outside of irresponsible sensationalist journalism, of course.

I owe you money for that.

FOX8 in New Orleans, SD6 in San Diego, this thing has gotten legs. Irving Azoff might have to step in to quell this fire.

[Michigan Girl]

effin' Neal ...I am LMAO!!!

[swataz]

They mave HAVE to reform now.

This is great PR and will probably ultimately end with Nostrildamus releasing his new album titled "And You Thought Chinese Democracy Took A Long Fucking Time, Huh?"
