Awful. Truly awful. We need Dave or Jimi STAT or they're going to be playing bowling tournaments and frisbee commercials. What the hell was Frankie thinking with this guy?

I have never liked The guy's voice anyway dating right back to his Grand Prix days, but i shall leave my opinions regarding whether or not he is suited to Survivor until after they release something.
I do believe though that my feelings on McAuley will not change, as a bad singer is a bad singer at the end of the day. Just seems he is not suited to the band Survivor to me.

by **Red13JoePa** » Sun May 20, 2007 6:15 am

Not bad.

SHOULD be playing Reach, Fire Makes Steel or something off of Reach.

For chrissakes, DROP Poor Man's Son.

Where can we find the setlists for this year so far?

Oh here we friggin' go. If you and 7 don't like him that's fine. That doesn't make him a bad singer. It just means you don't like him.

Like your opinion means shite anymore. We know your opinion of Robin. Fuck he could win a grammy and you wouldn't give shite.

I'm glad there doing Poor Man's Son. Friggin' Jamo wasn't doing it.

First of all "EYE". . . .thanks for providing the bootleg - that's cool of you.

With that being said. . . . . . .I thought it was rather awful as well. I'm sorry - I'm just not gettin' into this sound with Robin AT ALL. I tried. I listened to like 30 seconds of every song on the bootleg and I was pretty much consistently disgusted with what I heard.

I feel bad baggin' on a guy so much. But, that's just the plain truth. I don't need to hear a full recorded CD with him to be convinced of that. Maybe he's a great performer. Who cares if I can't stand his voice? I wish him all the best and I'm sure he's had a successful solo career, and that's great. But, I love Survivor and hope and prey that this is not the lead singer they end up recording their next CD with. If they do, that'll officially be the end of this band.

Most of the general public already doesn't know who Survivor is. If they go this rout, that's pretty much the nail in the coffin as far as any hopes for generating new fans.

B/c it's a horrendous song.

And why, once again, is this a Jamo issue to you? I thought in your world EVERYone was "complicit" and Frankie has no more culpability than Jamo for the flakiness. Yet, here, you're implying Jamo was the reason they didn't play PMS.

High On You is godawful, too but as a hit I guess it's stuck in most setlists.

As I said before, all roads lead by to Jimi in Slanders eyes.

Yeah he's been a nail in the coffin. The band is busier and performing on national television. Yeah that Robin has been a true nail in the coffin.

So you got tired of picking on Frankie now so we have to go after Robin. Can you guys can't handle that he is a better showman the Jamo and has been more successful in his solo efforts? Give the guy a chance. Or is that blasphemy in the church of Jamo? Put down the cool-aid.

No with Robin they are playing NATIONAL TELEVISION SHOWS THAT GET 20 MILLION PLUS VIEWERS. Sorry the facts seems to avoid you 7.

Eye thanks so much for the boot. I enjoyed it very much. Having said that it's not a great boot. I think Robin holds up fine. I'm sick of the people on hear complaining about his voice. It ain't going to change. I think Eye and Poor man's son are excellent. I can't wait until the record. I think a lot of people will be eating shite.

by **Lark** » Mon May 21, 2007 8:58 am

Slander, you act as though Robin is the reason for more gigs and an appearance on primetime TV. Wake up, Robin is not the reason for either. The song "Eye of the Tiger" is the REASON. They are playing no more than they did the last full season with Jimi. Who are you trying to convince, us or yourself. Having said that, I like Robin, he is a great guy, great personality, he has the WOW factor but, again, I repeat myself, HE IS NOT THE REASON FOR NETWORK TV OR MORE GIGS. Regardless of what you want to believe.

He is breathing energy into the band. You are wrong. They are also playing more gigs.

Yes, Robin brings energy into the band. No, I am not wrong, they are not playing more gigs. Yes, more than last year.

Clearly they are playing more gigs as a band. This isn't even up for discussion. I'm sorry you don't like Robin's voice. I can't wait to hear Survivor material written for him. I'm sure it will terrific. I remember when I first heard Jimi, I thought the band had whimped out. It took time. Robin has asked for the same chance. I think you, 7, and the rest of the lot should honor that request. If you don't then I guess we really know what kind of fans you are.

It's not awful at all. In fact I think Robin's versions of Reach and FMS are superior to Jimi's rather lackluster performances on those songs. Listen to the Survivor boot from KC. I wish people would just acknowledge that Jimi's performances did not sound inspired. Now let's quit nit picking Robin and move on to the future. Everybody wants to live in the past.

Pipe down, Robin/Francis. We are entitled to our opinions and we have the right to express them on this board. "Nit-picking" would involve pointing out that he ahd missed a couple of lines during the middle of "When Seconds Count". When there are quite a number of us saying McAuley is either not good, bad, or worse, that is called STATING AN OPINION. We ARE living in the present - McAuley IS GOING TO KILL THIS BAND IF HE STAYS ON. We want Survivor to continue and thrive...and yes, the "new" "Survivor" HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE DWTS gig. NOTHING. It was PURE NAME RECOGNITION. YOU are living in the past because you think we can count on this mediocre-at-best vocalist to help this band Survive in this very competitive day and age. You still think the name "Survivor" has clout. ONLY ON TV. Without a new singer, or preferably Dave or Jimi back in the fold, this band will be DEAD ON ARRIVAL WITHIN TWO YEARS. Count on it.

You are allowed your opinion. No one says you are not. I respect your opinions while at the same time I think they are shite. They are not backed up by evidence. They are not well thought out. 7, have you listened to "Business As Usual?" I bet you haven't. Nor do you care too. Great record. Even the 'big dog' as you call him agrees. This is a new band. They deserve positive vibes. The shite you, lark, red, etc dish out doesn't serve much of a purpose. Shite is just that my friend, shite. You can't even give the band credit for playing a national television show. The vitriol on this board is completely unwarranted. Robin is a talented vocalist and a great showman. All he has done is ask for a chance. Let him put out a friggin' record then you can 'pop' off about the future of the band.

When it comes Red. I guess I don't understand the purpose of your diatribes. Reach came out last year. My understanding is that they are currently working on a new album. Maybe it won't come out. I don't think Mcauley would have joined Survivor if the band was just going to do the fair and casino circuit. Mcauley has his own group "bleed." Robin is a serious singer. I for one don't believe he would have joined Survivor if the band were stagnate. Your thoughts?

My thoughts?
1 interrogative sentence is not a diatribe and the "new album" will be spoken of in vagueries for about a decade.

My friend it has been more than one sentence. The criticisms seem like they have gone on for ever. I just don't know why you don't give the band a chance in its current state. I don't understand what purpose it serves to be so negative all the time. The band has had an excellent 2007. I hope they cap it off with a terrific album later this fall.

damn red and seven...why do you guys get all the credit?

Credit for what Eye? Being negative? If you want the title Eye go ahead and claim it.

No.

THAT would be the space between Survivor albums.
