I have tried to ignore and move on from this person many times in the past year, but as always, after several months pass, here he pops up again - This time in the out of the blue "miscarraige" comment in a different thread. I'm sure in another couple of months there will be another reason for him to pop out of the woodwork.
As to my record and professionalism, let me only say this. There have been 19 players by my count in Frontiers over the past 8 years. Aside from this person, there isn't anyone in that 19 that I wouldn't play with, or that wouldn't want to play with me again. Well, aside from that person, one really whacked dude that played 3 gigs with us, and
GI Jim, but I think Jim's just easily influenced by those around him.... 
Anyway, Frontiers is a revolving door. New players come in, old players leave. Players from the 2003-2008 lineup have even played shows with me in the past 2 months. I have regular conversations with most other players during that lineup. I have worked with countless promoters, agents, sound engineers, and some of the biggest clubs in the country, and not a single place I have been would think twice about working with me again. The person who has graced your presence this evening is one of those rare characters that just "ain't right," and I guess if you are in any business long enough you run into them. So I don't need to bring in any other band mates for testimonials, any management types verifying my credit, or any therapists clearing my sanity. Just go on about all y'all's business of listening to music and having fun, and I'll go about mine of playing it.
Thanks and again, I'm sorry.
Easily influenced huh?
If you think my issues with you have anything whatsoever to do with Barry, you're sadly mistaken. Unless you want to take this any further, I'll make my peace here and be done with it. My main issues with you? The lies. You've changed your "Journey story" several times to paint yourself in a better light. You lied to me about it personally, and I was actually going to bat against several other people on here to defend you.
Why don't you bring back your original blog with your original side of the story that was on your website? I'd love to go back and read that to compare it with todays version!
Ask Beshad, Nolippin, Deano and several others in here if I sent them PM's asking them to leave you alone... I trusted you. BIG mistake. I don't like being lied to, and made to look like a fool. I understand WHY you lied at the time, but now that your chance is shot with them... why not just come clean?
Also, I have an issue with being paid weeks after a gig. This was a common occurance with you, and it got old really quickly. Every time you owed me money, you'd dodge my phone calls and not respond to my emails. Once, I had to wait until I showed up for another gig 3 weeks later to get paid. NOT cool!
And I played with you guys I believe for 8 gigs. I don't know how you're running your business now, but I sure hope you're taking better care of the new guys.
Barry was right about one other thing... whether you believe it or not, every single person I played with in frontiers talked bad about you behind your back. That was one of the things I got tired of really quickly while playing with the band. TOO much drama was going on for my taste. If you think the other guys in the band are your friends... You may need to re-evaluate who you consider "friends".
The last thing I will comment on is that text. Barry forwarded it to me, and I think it's crazy too! I'm not saying Sabrina's crazy, but if I were having a dissagreement with you, and she texted me something like that, I'd be pissed off! How is an arguement between you and I going to "cause her to have a miscarriage"?
EDIT... Just had to add this in there... How about having me drive for 5 1/2 hours to Virginia from S.C. for my one and only band rehearsal, just so you can show up, say you lost your contact and your eye hurt?
Then you just LEFT??? WTF was THAT about?
As far as you personally, I wish you the best of success. I've always thought (and still do) that you're extremely talented. I think you should stick with What's his name from the Outfield, and make some great music. I enjoy what I've heard so far, and I think it could be a successfull venture for you. The more personal stuff, I'll leave out of the public threads, so that's all I have to say on this issue.
