:shock: That's all I have to say.


WOW Rip.... :shock: from a bit back when I heard that Michael and Boston were doing something together..I was trippin' and knew it would lead to more. I was trippin' because you were taking one of my favorite all time vocalist and putting him with one of my fav all time bands..RIP Brad.. :cry:


I hear ya!! (read ya) 8) I was really looking forward to hearing Michael sing with them.

I am still so bummed I won't be seeing Boston with Brad again though. :cry:

Yeah..it's a weird thing for me. Michael and Brad have always been at my tops for many reasons..so while I will enjoy hearing Michael doing more with Tom and Boston..I will be missing Brad not being there big time..it's a weird feeling..I guess :D yet.. :cry: at the same time.

He got a triple wammy in a way. Being involved with a Christian Rock band, how they dressed and the whole hair band bit.
If you were to hear them/him today..and you didn't know where he was from..you'd be dropping your mouth. The dude has a set of pipes..some of the best in the biz and he can rock.


What the heck are you talking about. I never said I didn't like the guy's voice. Someone said it seemed strange to hire a guy from Stryper and I was simply comparing it to JSS being in Journey. Sheesh!

Um..ok..now I have no idea what you are talking about. The post wasn't even directed at you at all. I included your post because it somewhat agreed with how I felt and what I was saying. What are you going all off about. My post had nothing to do with your post. I was talking to the person we both quoated. If you read what I wrote..it has nothing to do with what you wrote..so what are you all bent about.. :roll:
I included what you wrote because I wanted what you and I both wrote to be included..you thought what I wrote what directed at you because I included it..even though it had nothing to do with what I wrote...even IF it did..nothing I wrote was that crazy for you to get all bent about..SHEESH is right..take a chill pill and think first. I see nothing I wrote where it was directed at you. Doesn't even make sense. I was talking nothing about what you wrote.
You only included part of what I quoated in your post. You left off the person I was directing the post at. It was meant to be a good thing that I included your post and not just theirs.
I don't get it. Nothing I said made sense even to your post. Peace. Focker out..

Just like my words here are in response to your post, your words in the post I responded to were in direct response to mine. If you weren't referring to me, then you didn't make it very clear so the only thing I had to go by was that you directly quoted me. That is understandable, isn't it?

You're actually correct. I can't remember the last time I actually got pissed at anyone on here. In fact, normally, the only people who can really piss me off are John Edwards (the phony politician), my boss, and my daughter from time to time.

10+ years and counting...I probably piss my wife off because even when I do get mad, I don't stay mad for very long. In fact, she knows I enjoy arguing, so it's usually pointless for her to try anyway. :lol:

I think in that interview he was talking about the brad delp tribute concert, not actually joining Boston for a new album. He is currently behind on the new stryper album which is now coming out in late suummer, followed by a tour. His wife is also battling cancer...I honestly do not believe that he is joining Boston

A huge shame about his wife, but according to his last website update, she'd been "healed". I hope they are doing well, and I'm really looking forward to the new album. They say it will be more melodic, and I'm all up for that!
