This morning, on 95.5 WPLJ New York....

"Scott & Todd", the morning show, played the (now infamous) "DSB" from the White Sox rally.

They kept their mics on as the song progressed.....they were peppering it with "OH!"s and "oops", and "...here's where it gets a LITTLE rough..."

But the bottom line: all they said about Steve was this:

"Eh, he looked like he was having fun..."

Yes, they WERE a bit taken-back by the performance; wondering out loud WHY he "chose this venue to be his big come-back" (paraphrased; it was said as a joke)

But what I'm trying to say is this:

THESE GUYS COULD'VE RIPPED STEVE A NEW ONE - THEY DO NOT HOLD BACK AT ALL; THEY DON'T CARE - AND THEY DIDN'T!

So why can't we just see it for what it is? A 50-something year old singer who didn't take himself so SERIOUSLY for once?

_______________________________________________________

But....on the flip side:

If it all really IS "going down in flames".....

I'll take a few stellar albums with Steve's unmatched vocal ability over a lifetime's supply of someone else's mediocrity.

I never denied Perry was having fun.
Even with that acknowledged, he still sounded hellish.
Apparently now when singers are having fun they lose all their vocal talent?
Stop laboriously concocting excuses for Steve's inhuman guttural noises on Friday and stop yanking our collective cranks, please.

Take your meds, Noble. You're really going off the deep end. Spend an extra day at your shrink. :shock:

How about you try to refute what I say, instead of projecting psychoses that do not exist.

I agree with this....but I feel that some of Steve's take things a little too seriously.

Perry hasn't released a "stellar" album since Street Talk. Why would he start now?

What locked topic? Are you referring to my sticky topic?
If so, I fail to see what's wrong with it.
This site is the pre-eminent place to go to discuss all things Journey related.
Where else would I go to discuss Perry's abject vocal display?
