A human approach

[NealIsGod]

hey NIG... you just an underling of the guy.... sheltering like the pathetic piece o crap you are... at least have some spark of originality yourself

Original? This coming from someone who makes a career out of imitating Paul McCartney? HILARIOUS!

[NealIsGod]

And stop PMing me, you fucking nut. I will never PM you b/c you will post it. Keep it public.

[cetera]

hey that Jo Reardon sounds like my kinda guy!! yee hah !!

Yeah, and when you read the "Dickhead of the Year" award that Deano is about to post, you will see how true that is.

hey NIG... you just an underling of the guy.... sheltering like the pathetic piece o crap you are... at least have some spark of originality yourself.... does Deano have to do all yr shit for you ???

Ive changed my mind.... Deano is cool...... its the rest of you weak lil lambs who need the guy to shout up for them

NIG.. you are one sad git

Neil, chill man!

I've always found NiG to be a likeable guy who will say his piece when need be.... but sit back & laugh when necessary too...

Drop it man....

[Rockindeano]

Who is Joe reardon? That's like asking who is Al Capone?

I am fishing for his "Dickhead of the Year" award.

Let me get it....

Ahhhh.... love it.

I can't find it. I think Drew deleted it. However, I remember copying and pasting to a post I made sometime last year. There is always a way around Andrews roadblocks

[NealIsGod]

Ah, for fuck's sake, do I gotta do everything?

Dickhead of the Year Award:
I didn't name the Dickhead Of The Year in 2004. I kept it subtle. Not this year. Contenders for the award this year were the genius undercover Def Leppard reporter Ramona (nice try, enjoy the asylum); Nicholas Hway, the dreg Canadian conman who was using my site name and my personal reference to book gigs in Canada while also stating that I had sold the Canadian rights of the site to him too; and a certain Noticeboard poster who spent most of the year under a pseudonym before being exposed and called for their actions (yet again).
But boy, in 2005, this dickhead stands head and shoulders above all other dickhead's I have encountered and deserves to be publicly flogged for his attitude and his clearly diagnosed multiple personality disorder. I don't think I have laughed so hard at so many e-mails from one clown.

Dickhead Of The Year 2005 is none other than Joe Reardon.
Now Joe should be familiar to anyone that has ever posted on a Journey forum or news group. He is everywhere. Or should I say was everywhere. This venomous toad has been banned from every single forum online and even has had the dubious honor of being responsible for a couple of forums being closed down.
This hate filled snake has fired off shots at just about everyone on every board. I can't understand how one person can become so filled with rage for others, but karma is a bitch and one day this ass-clown will get what he deserves.
He was a member of the forums here until finally being banned, at which point he began to unload his special brand of hatred upon me. Below are some of the e-mails I received before blocking his IP address from the whole site and creating a mail filter to block his abuse.
I must state that these individually numbers e-mails listed below are not for the fainthearted, but are so seriously bizarre that they are funny, not abusive. I still get a laugh from these and think the sooner this guy gets clinical help, the better for all. His family must be truly proud of him.

1. I apologize again for the BS. Can I get back into the forums? [Answer...NO!]
2. who's running that website andy...I knew you never had much of a backbone...spineless little c**t. But the joke IS on you you knucklehead...I am alive and well in your pathetic little website...3 times over. I knew you would ban me...who gives a crap.
but i have been posting for more than a year under THREE other names...good fucking luck!!! You see...Boston has more than one computer you Aussie bitch.
So, really, I'm not gone at all..have a nice day..and bend down and spread them wide...such a little man you are. Christ, you are a saaaaaaaaaad moderator. I'll be posting tomorrow...hint...people on the site LOVE me!!!! Good fucking luck figuring things out....ban and ban again...hehe!!!!
3. Face it Andrew...you don't have an answer. And what exactly did I do that was SO bad compared to what goes on in therre now? Of course....you don't have an answer.
4. Gee...I forget why I was banned in the first place. Maybe I wasn't vile enough for your tastes!!!!
5. Blah...blah...piece of crap. I hope your kid has two heads... [Sorry Joe, only 1 head.]
6. Hey pussy...show everyone your harry potter photo you little maggot. I wish I had five minutes...one on one...with your smary little douche bag ass...you TRULY are a piece of shit...another ass-bending homo.
7. LMFAO!!!!! Get a clue Mr. Moderator!
8. Like I told CJ at Backtalk andrew....I'm still very much around and posting in the BT forums, just as I'm alive and well posting on the Melodicrock forums. Have a nice day! LOL!!!!
9. hi andrew....steve wanted to know who the harry potter-slimy bearded twerp was. The Voice wants me to kick your ass like a wounded dingo.
10. LMFAO.....I'm still in the forum genius...just as I'm in BT and Stuart's site...have a nice Thanksgiving...I hear kangaroo is good eatin....
11. hi andrea! I hope you have a great Thanksgiving. Give the kids a hug.
12. NO ONE calls me a KNUCKLEHEAD!!!!! Don't get your panties in a bunch Andrew. Lighten up. I have no hatred for you or anyone else.
13. ....Hmmm...kiss Andrew's ass or be banned for good....SCREW YOU!!!! You're lucky you're Down Under Harry Potter.
14. Be still McNeice...when I say I will fuck your ass, I literally WILL fuck it, after I beat you to submission. So come visit...I WILL do as I say. I fucking DARE you.
15. Pssst...here's a little secret Andy. I'm already IN your forum. I have been for quite a while now...genius. It's just that...well, I like fucking with you...buffoon. LMFAO!!!!! Good luck trying to figure out who I am...you would be quite suprised if you had an ass chance of figuring it out. Good Luck genius...
16. Shucks...I can't enjoy journey music without being a part of your forum. be still and get a fucking life. Bye you little....C***. Love, Steve Perry....BWAHAHAHA. You are a tool Douche Bag.

What a repertoire! Joe - you are clearly head and shoulders above anyone else in the dickhead stakes, so congratulations, you are MelodicRock.com's Dickhead Of The Year 2005.

[jrnysc]

Where was the human element PRIOR to booking this tour? Augeri did not just "start" to have vocal problems this tour. Anyone having the problems he had LAST tour, should not have signed up for a tour, let alone one of THIS size this year.

Where was the human element of concern for us, the people laying down their hard-earned money for tickets LAST year and then again this year, knowing what they ALL knew, and deceiving everyone anyway.

Where was the human element in having ANY communication with the fans, even on their own website?

They made their decisions based on money, not on yours (or anyones) perceived loyalty to the fans, the music or their legacy. They are more than damn lucky that Soto was available, ready and willing or they would have been screwed with a capital S. If there is any human element in any of this, it is Soto. At least he is LIVE and was willing to step up and save their asses.

Morning EightyRock. Good points. I will try to answer them from what I know one at a time. Thanks for not being like me and splitting your post up!!
1. I don't know when this tour was booked, or what Steve, the band, or his doctors thought about his situation. PERHAPS (Once again I have no inside knowledge) his Dr. thought he should be fine by the beginning of the tour and it simply did not happen. From my understanding of allegations, he used the vocal tapes less frequent last year than in recent past (Correct me if I am wrong), and perhaps they thought it would get better with rest.
2. Only answer I can give here is the same as number one.
3. I think I can answer this one. Neal and the other guys have said in the past they won't post anymore, for the same type crap that is written on these boards from time to time. I really thought before yesterday JSS might break the ice, but that will not happen now I fear. They still speak to fans at the shows, but that is about all your gonna get out of them. A simple case of a few bad eggs killed it for everyone, ESPECIALLY ON THEIR OWN SITE!!!
4. Yes. It is business. It is always about money. They made a decision, it went to shit, and they had to overcome and adapt. They do love the music and legacy also however. And yes, Jeff saved the day for sure.

5. My points about human element are mostly directed at the brutal things that are said about people with total disregard about the hurt it can/could/does cause.

Worryingly there's at least one person on this forum who posts in a VERY similar vein....

[Citygirl]

Deano, I have 1 question for you:

The day he sounded really bad in Raleigh and Deen had to sing for him a lot... you put on your journal that it was big bang day. Did you know exactly what was going to happen that night or was that just a fluke?
