What would your thoughts be on Journey hiring Rob Thomas to be their new front man should Augeri not be able to continue and JSS decides to keep doing his own thing. I think an established artist like Thomas who is both young AND talented could put them back to mega-stardom fast. He seems like he'd be a great fit to me. Likeable too. It's just speculation, so what would your thoughts be IF it did happen. I, for one, would be amped big time.

Jesus Christ, are you serious? He couldn't begin to sing those songs.

You have got to be shitting me, bro.
Rob Thomas? Rob freaking Thomas?
I thought most said Perry was effiminate. Augeri was just as bad, and much worse IMO. Now you want an even more pussified guy fronting them? Back away from the crackpipe. I would much rather have a woman singer, than "Rob I wear pink panties under my levis Thomas."
Oh, by the way, bring them back to stardom? er, mega stardom? He is stardom? If it wasn't for an appearance on Carlos Santanas CD, he would be filling up Greeley's bar on 4th street in downtown Petaluma, CA.
THis is the dumbest and gayest idea I have ever read, heard or been told of.

Neal will never have anyone who is really good front the band. He's loving it now when reviews state that the vocalist had problems but the lead guitar really rocked.

Thanks for agreeing with me in the past. You agreed because I was right. Rob Thomas may be a fine singer, but he is not even remotely a possibility for this job. I have a better chance at become the next Secretary of State than he does becoming Journey lead singer.

They're never gonna be back to "mega-stardom", with or without Rob Thomas. There's no way they'll go with anyone "famous" or fully established on his own (not that Jss isn't semi-established already).That would cost money.

And here once again i am agreeing with you.There is no way he could cut it in the band.Well then we need to get Steve Perry back and then we could all ROCK again. Oh but Sock boy would not hear of it.And Steve is better off where he is. So i vote you in as lead singer of journey.lolol But others may not see it my way so you may not get the job.hehe

First of all asshole, a simple I disagree would have done. Second, he has been a very successful artist for some time. In fact, relative to today's music scene, he's one of the few white males who's enjoyed success with good lyrics and sound music. As for your "pussified guy" and "gayest idea" statements, Freddie Mercury was as feminine and openly gay as anyone and that dude could sing his ass off. Here's a tip: when you disagree with someone, acting like a jackoff doesn't make your OPINION any more valid. Have a nice day.

This was just what if and everyone is getting bent out of shape here. Rob Thomas is great and i have said that. He rocks and as for Queen no one can take Freddy's place .And that is how i feel about SP no one can ever fill his shows either. So why can't we be grown ups here Deano be good if you can and that goes for everyone.PLEASE!

Asshole? Ok, I am a big boy, and can handle that, but dude, come on. That is like saying George michael should take on Mike Tyson and the undercard would have Richard Simmons versus Stone Cold Steve Austin.
I stand by what I said.
The dumbest, and gayest idea ever.
PS, I have NOTHING against gay people. I just find it easy to make fun of em. It's funny to me, in fact, it cracks me up.
Freddie Mercury could suck a cab driver through immigration, and I would take him as singer because he was so good. In fact, I think it was Fredjourneyman who said Espee was a Homo. Who cares.
By the way, Thomas isn't gay, is he? I didn't think so. So all I said was he is effeminate, and that the IDEA was gay.

2 Things:
1) It was only speculation...like the title said.
2) That "dumbest and gayest" idea is better than anything they're gonna do....outside of a Perry re-union. And just what are your thoughts? Just 2 weeks ago you were ranting about how Journey was gonna blow Def Leppard away now that they have JSS. What happened to that idea Mr. Manager?

Thanks for the title, but I refuse.
Who says DL blows Journey off the stage? I don't think they are. I think Journey can hold their own against DL, and this with basically no stage, limited lighting and a new singer.

I like Rob Thomas too, but honestly? I think he would consider that a step down.
