Was listening to the first half of TBF today. So good. Glad they looked back enough for that.

Yea, but at what cost? Was it worth a ten or twelve year wait?

Especially on "One More."

I totally agree. Those first 6 songs are epic. I just wish that album wasn't so long. Too many songs...

But yes, it was too long, some of those extra songs should have been b sides. Never cared for Dont be down, and the magic moments song. Get rid of those 2 and add I can see it in your eyes and you have an album to rival Frontiers.
Still She Cries is a masterpiece.

Why would he want to sing at a roast and honor a man who absolutely hates his guts???

If they had continued on with Chalfant, it would have also had Ross and Steve Smith. Steve Perry did not reunite the band, it was already together..along with Gregg Rolie AND Jonathan Cain.
But, it doesn't matter...it is what is today.

I wonder after the debacle that happened to Chalfant pre TBF, similar that happened to Jeremy was not asked or did not want to come back after TBF.
This song is by far my favorite Two Fires Song. One day I will have to pick up the whole CD. (But always thought most of he first was very average except for the first and last song.

Because the band was invited and was going to perform. But I forgot, it's always about Steve isn't it?

I love both Storm cds. Not sure why they didn't go with Chalfant in 1998. Some say he's a bit of a primadonna. Who knows.
