That Journey are not MASSIVE...anymore.

For years here in the U.K. I slagged off the shite that was S.Club 7, Steps, Westlife, etc. All the garbage I despised. Groups that openly mimed on T.V. (Top of the pops etc.) then I found out that Steps (a shite band from the late 90's here in the U.K.) mimed in concert. I crucified Brothers and Sisters, Aunts and Uncles, Nieces and Nephews, took the piss out of them that they weren't seeing a true gig. Now I am pleased that none of them know what I know. None of them can crucify me cos they don't know what I know, cos it has never made the news, it has not made the press, none of my family or friends know of Melodic Rock.com But if tapegate made the national news....my life will be not worth living, they all know I loved Journey It will be all thrown back into my face. I am so ashamed. If one person is miming, and the rest of the group knows and endorses it....they are all as bad as each other.

Make no mistake, I will always follow the band, to see what they are up to, I will not join the S.A. v JSS debate (by the way I think it is mint that a vocalist from a group contributes to a forum, D. Leppard take note). But to me they will always be tainted if this scandal is true. And I got all this info from this message board.

I wasn't into the singer that was allegedly lip synching. I can guarantee you now that JSS is not. Maybe Augeri had serious throat problems and the band could't get anyone in faster than his throat was going out, so they did what they thought to be right. I cant put anybody down for what they did or do. Hey we're all assholes at one point or another in our lives, right? Should we crucify ourselves as well?

The bottom line is none of us knows any of the real circumstances (unless your in the band or involved personally), so forgive and forget. Enjoy what is out there now.
