You also get the first opportunity to order Frankie's new book: "How to Alienate Your Fans and Work with your Enemies." and his best selling memoir: "Working It Out in Court; The Frankie Sullivan Story"

Hey Baron...also don't forget Red's all-time favorite quote from FS regarding "Fire Makes Steel" and it's 'new home' that's going to "Blow your mind."

It's kind of crazy, even some of the original die-hard apologist have are beyond faith...it's sad really...

Before this line of 'goofing' off...this board went almost two weeks without a single post, so it's hard to say much about anyone posting!

But yes, you are right...that is normally how it goes...

yeah, I'm amazed this board is as active as it is, considering that it's about a band that (a) was never a headlining act even in its prime, and (b) hasn't done anything in years, and (c) has a spokesperson/guitarist who tries his hardest to alienate fans.
Meanwhile, poor Bryan Adams can't get anybody to post on his board.

Hard to Argue Blood....BUT...

I will say FS has been thrown for a bit of a loop many times....and Hell, we were working with our close friend on the new Survivor album and he DIED....lost files...years of work....it was not easy....

As far as some of the Broken Promises, I can't defend or accuse on that one, but I will say this band has been pretty complicated...Jamo is on time number 3 being back...Dave 2 times...

Rough Road....no excuses though.....JV

Where can we find these things?

I get it!!!

But talent is talent....and he has it...I deal sometimes with with wannabee's, and people with NO talent who THINK they are amazing playing in their bar band....and then there are guys like FS with more talent than 5 guys need and he just does things his own way....and that is completely his choice...and I respect that....but it is hard when a guy with so much talent doesn't just do a few more albums and show all tthat talent God has givin him....

I respect him either way...and always will...and he is a fiercely loyal friend to boot....

very glad to hear about Frankie being a loyal friend......like you said.....TALENT IS TALENT !......and he's an amazing talent !.......and sometimes TALENT is not only about technique and speed and all that.....it's about being able to play with your soul (i know i sound so corny) but TECHNIQUE ALONE doesnt make you a great musician........and that's where BAR BANDS and GUITAR MASTURBATORS just dont get it ! :-)

CORRECT!!!

It is hard to rationalize things sometimes when talking with some guy who plays in a bar every once in a while....does some crappy recording at home and thinks he is David Foster!!! Or another guy who plays some guitar and thinks he is Steve Lukather because he can play THE NOTES of some his solos...man, it is WAY more than that....but there is no talking to these guys....

Music is emotion...vibe....technique and TALENT...and you can't buy talent....can't dream it up....FS is "one of the guys"....an amazing player...just wish WE heard MORE of it, I can never get enough of what he plays....

I feel sorry for Andrew sometimes....he has to deal with alot of hack wannabees with their self promotion and their trying to compare themselves with the real players...and here we are begging the band we love to give us more stuff!!!

UGH....

BUT....Sounds like you get it....

Right said!

JV the way i figure is the silence is your fault entirely! Every time we get going on here on a tangent to tirade, you come in here speaking this ridiculous thing called the truth, spreading dangerous insight, providing a level of proper prospective and destroying all of our delusions of grandjur and evil plots!

Damn you man! :D

Don't you know the last thing people want is actually insight!
